I hope this isn't an off limits topic. If it is please accept my apologies and delete it.
Are you trad only when it comes to archery or do you switch back and forth for hunting and/or 3D. Elaborate if you feel like it.
I'm caught in the middle right now.

I made the switch to all trad this year for my bowhunting. Flip-flopped back and forth the previous 2 years.
Don't regret it....should've done it years ago.

All of my big game hunting is traditional archery.
I still use a "traditional" side by side shotgun and my "traditional" pointing dogs to chase quail.

traditional only since 1992...if you keep flip flopping you will never fully commit.
outside of bowhunting...i use sidebyside shotguns, blackpowder rifles, lever action big bores, etc.

Been shooting since the early 60's, never owned a compound.

There's not a single wheelie bow in my household of 5 people. Each of my 3 kids has a recurve apiece and I shoot a R/D longbow for hunting and a recurve for bowfishing plus I have an osage selfbow that I made and we have one extra recurve bow just in case the mrs. gets interested.
I don't have anything against wheelie bows nor do I have anything against the people that shoot them either.
To me, it's just much more fun and exciting to shoot trad exclusively.

It's been a while since I've shot anything with a compound or a gun. I just own trad bows now.

Sold all 5 compounds. Have 2 recurves and 2 longbows now. I have hunted strictly with a bow since 1990. 2012 switched to trad only. Take the training wheels off and come join the big boys.

Gave the wheel bow away to a nice guy wanting to get into hunting. That was 10 years ago. My heart belongs to my family and a longbow.
