I can't remember exactly when or how, but was searching the internet for traditional gear and accidently came upon a link and was directed to it from another site.
 I'm not superstitious, not generally prone to good fortune, but this site has been my best ever find on the internet.
 Never been involved with a better group of people in my lifetime.
 I once said, (in reference to Trad Gang and it's member involvement with the annual St. Judes auction)
"I've never met a finer group of people gathered under one roof, so dedicated to such a noble cause".
 And it's as true today as it was then.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to the finest people on planet earth.

A customer was in my taxidermy shop and we were talking trad archery. I told him about another site and he said " you need to try tradgang. I wrote it down looked it up and I've been enjoying it and learning from you guys ever since. Thanks for all the advice. It has shortened my learning curve greatly.

I just stumbled across TG one afternoon while surfing around. Prior to that it felt like I was the only traditional archer in the world other than the guys I read about in TBM. Since then I have met so many trad archers, some who live not too far away, and some on the other side of the world. Now I know I am not alone in my hobby and my interest in classic Bear bows.

So glad I found TG as it is my home away from home!!!

I live in a relatively isolated northern community and don't have the opportunity to share my passion with anyone nearby.

Being a professional hunting guide for many years gave me the chance to meet other traditional bowhunters (from the U.S.A.) who thankfully made me aware of Trad gang. In fact, I found out about Trad gang before we had Internet service here and before I learned to use a computer. Trad gang was a major motivating factor for me to learn.

Out in Wyoming at a Family renuion (InLaws) brought a couple of bows along and was doing some shooting. One of my wifes uncles came out with a few of his bows. We spent the next few days shooting and during that time he mentioned this site. When I got back home found the site and joined. I had been shooting Trad bows for years. Great place and great people.
