Use the force, Ron. Do not return to the dark side. Truth, power, and wisdom lie along the path of the stick and string!

Congrats on the move to the light side of the archery force.  I loved selling mine and will never look back.

I would get rid of mine if I knew of some one to give it to....the darn thing ain't worth anything...lol! I don't think I have shot it in 2 or 3 years, maybe longer!
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

:clapper:    :clapper:    :clapper:  I am happy for you.  I remember getting rid of mine a few months ago.  Now the only time I touch one is for my son who is 16.  I bought him a Kanati and loves to shoot it, but... he does not spend the time he should with it.  Best wishes this season. Will be my first TRAD ONLY!!!

That's what I call being committed!  :scared:

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs

Think I see another bowaholic in the making-if you're already seeing room for a few more,then 5 or 6, then start making another room to hold them. Welcome to the disease, no cure, and no need for one.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

I still own one, now if I could just remember where I put it maybe I could sell it and use the money for a good cause. Like maybe it could pay for shipping on a shooting tab or something bigger like a quiver..lol

I always thought it was priceless and I was right...lol Not worth a durn thing!

Congratulations!!

Congrats.  I gave my 25 year old compound to a struggling college student.  Since it has no sights or release I hope to bridge him to a recurve as soon as I can pick one up for him cheap.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

last un-traditional bow I had was an onida eagle no wheels just cable. Think it was 1991 when i sold it. Good job you will never regret going all traditional.
