How did you come about finding the Tradgang webite?
Myself, i happened to be on vacation visiting my son in Lakeside California and someone in his apartment complex had a Tradgang decal in there vehicle window, i thought "could that be what it sounds like". Since i discovered this site i even took the plunge and got the internet at home.  :biglaugh:

I was reading one of my dads old Traditional Bowhunter magazines and a guy in there recommended this site, so I checked it out and now I'm on here almost everyday.

I got invited by Terry Green when he first started Tradgang.

A customer was in the outdoor store I was working in and we got to talking about bows. When I mentioned I hunted with a longbow, he gave me the website and suggested I take a look. I took one look and realized I had found a real gem.

My Dad was a member for sometime before me and got me started looking at the threads and classifieds as I was in the market for a new bow at the time as well.

I'd just started shooting trad and did a search on the net and this came up.  Loved it ever since!

Guy I used to work with told me of it.  Lurked and read for several months before I actually logged in.  Best trad site around IMHO. dino

I am pre-trad-gang, today I feel almost pre-dirt.
 I been here since Moby Dick was in a fish bowl. I don't think my mind or my memory aren't about to let me wander that far back in time. Especially if I'm expecting it to retrieve much if any specifics about this or much of anything else.

Brock at Bull Mountain Archery mentioned the site to me and said I should give it a look.  Best archery advice I ever got.  This site has helped me immensely in my quest for the right arrows, tuning, and form questions I have had.

Someone suggested I try this site since the site I was on had begun to deteriorate quickly. Glad I took their advice,  this is my cup of coffee in the morning   :)   It get's my day started and I then look forward to checking it out throughout the day.

Sold a guy from Fl a Jeffey bow and he told me about the site. Joined that day....

I'm not sure I remember correctly. I think I was on LW because my cousin showed me that site. I got sick of the bickering, put-downs, and downright rude behavior on that site. Someone there mentioned that that didn't happen on Tradgang, so I checked it out. This has been home ever since. I am here with my morning coffee. Then I'm back again in the evening.

Lots of great folks here, lots of knowledge, and lots of fun reading. You just can't beat it!

Can't quite remember how i found it, but TG is the reason I now have internet at home.

I can't remember (you know what they say about your memory being the second thing to go; don't remember what the first one was).

Sure am glad I found it though!!!!!!!!!!!!
