Hi everyone.
« on: May 08, 2011, 01:23:00 PM »
I hope this is the right place for this sort of post, couldnt find an introductions forum. Anyway I am new to trad archery, purchased a used 50# recurve and quickly found out I was over bowed. I am currently waiting on a 30# samick sage so I can learn proper form and all that good stuff, and hopefully not teach myself bad habits. This forum looks like a great place to learn some, and has some great reading material. I look forward to hanging around.

Welcome in man. This is a great site, great members and moderators. The samick sage is a great shooting little bow, especially for the money or for 2x the money.

Welcome!  If you scroll toward the bottom of the main forums page to the State Trad Bowhunting Orgs header, you will find a forum for "Idaho-Idaho Traditional Bowhunters".  Click on this forum and you can post there and possibly find other traditional archers in your neck of the woods to shoot with.

Mr. E, from one newbie to another, Welcome!

There is much to learn from these gentlemen, I can assure you. I read Tradgang religiously every day, without exception.

That sounds like me. I quickly bought a shiny 50# Bear Montana, thinking I could grow into it. Uh-uh. Didn't happen. I'm gonna drop 10 pounds on my next bow.

So, relax, ask questions before you buy and learn from the Masters at Tradgang.

Have fun.
