brand new trad addict
« on: August 31, 2007, 11:26:00 PM »
Greetings all, I'm new to this site, it was reccomended to me by the good folks in the wilderness and survival trianing section of blade forums.  I recently hung up my compund and picked up a recurve (just a starter bow a pse impala, I intend to upgrade soon) and I'm hooked I've been shooting everyday even if it's just for a little while.  Any pointers for a newbie?? well just thought I'd poke around and try to learn, Thanks for the opportunity.

Welcome.
Just keep shooting.  It'll come, with time and practice.  If you have someone close by to shoot with, it'll make it more fun.  Hate shooting alone.  Don't over bow yourself.  Keep the poundage to where its comfortable.  
Good luck.
