I have been a member a little while, some of you have helped me a bit, and it just dawned on me i should introduce myself.
I am Jason im a 40 yr old father of 3 wonderful kids,and 2 yellow labs. i got hooked on traditional in the strangest way..my kid bet me i couldnt shoot an arrow through the tire swing at 35 yds..now, we are talking a toy barnett thing cost about 15 bux, i never made the shot, but tried and tried for days. thought it was way more fun than my compound, which i hadnt shot in a few years. I bought a Bear grizzly off **ay, that led to another, and another, well you know! my collection is nowhere near most of the guys here but, someday.
I am a quality control/ safety inspector for a cable tv contractor..my lovely wife of 17 yrs is a welder..we dont have tons of money but we do what we can, i save and buy things when i can.
I hunt with a 1970 Kodiak hunter 45#@28" i hunt public grounds and i live right across the street from my spot, i also have thousands of kettle moraine state forest within 10 min of my house. I havent shot a deer with my recurve yet, i let a big buck go at 15 yds this yr due to the angle and brush ( that was hard)
I just built a room in my basement and over the years have piece by piece collected stuff.. this yr for christmas i got a bohning crsting kit so im going to try to bild arrows now. im sure i will be asking about that for sure.
ok ive rambled enough, thanks to all i hope i can someday learn enough from you all to be the one giving advice.
have a great year, Jason
