Hi everyone!  Just wanted to stop in and say hi.  I am new to trad shooting, my husband bought me my first trad bow last year and I have finally decided to make the switch from my compound to my trad bow.  I have to say that I am a pretty spoiled wife, he bought me a Wes Wallace Royal take down which I love!  I am enjoying the process of learning how to shoot it and have recently ordered my second bow since the first one is a little tough for me to pull to full draw.  I look forward to reading your posts and chatting with you all in the future.  Oh, my husband is also on Trad Gang, his name is Ragnorak Forge...

Hi, NWTW.....  where in WA?   If you're close by Seattle, I'd love to meet you both.  If not, maybe I'll catch you at one of the 3D events.

I seriously don't think he was thinking he was spoiling you. I'd put my money on "If I get her this bow, I can have it available as a back-up should something happen to mine!" J/K

Welcome!

I wish my wife would join in the fun.

I've come to believe that the keys to shooting well for me are good form, trusting the bow to do all the work, and having the confidence in the bow and myself to remain motionless and relaxed at release until the arrow hits the mark.

Thanks again everyone for the great welcome!  Oh and Mudd, I know there is a bit of that in the gift...lol  I know I've heard him say that it's nice to have a wife who shoots the same kindof bow because in a binch, he could use my bow if he had to.
