Don't remember, just happened upon it I guess? But This is where I learned of Mojam and Ojam! I have learned a lot. This is where I first heard of the bowers bibles and other great books that I now own. It sure has cost me a lot of money since I stumbled upon it.

I had run across it in the past, along with others, but had too many other priorities at the time. Joined another site recently but tired quickly…then dropped in here for a few minutes and instantly found kindred spirits. Rick.

Used to hang out on the LW.  Then I noticed that a lot of the frequent posters on that forum at the time all suddenly disappeared.  Tracked 'em down here and found a brand new website.  They could run, but they couldn't hide....  :bigsmyl:

I was on Savage Shooters.com, I build custom rifles as a hobby, did it for a living for several years, and was asking if anyone had trad bows for sale or trade, a guy gave me this website. Been hooked since. Sam.

From another bowhunting website...they have a Traditional page and some great people.  I was referred over here for more info.  Funny thing is, I was kind of intimidated to join and post over here so I lurked for a while.  All the people writing articles for TBM, Bowhunting (trad column), on TV, etc. were posting on here so I didn't want to look like a boob.  I still do ALOT more reading than posting.  Great site!

Just looking to buy my first trad bow. A guy that owned a local archery sight told me to check it out. The rest is history. Been a great time! I'm usually just a lurker, but man, great advice comes through here, as well as a lot of generocity. Awesome group!

I was on the phone with JD Jones (bowyer) talking about a new selfbow when he said "have you heard about the new site"? I of course said, what site?  

That was the last week in March 2003. I joined the next week.
What a great place!
