Congrats! Its funner than heck....  you will never look at your compound the same again. Not saying you wont want to hunt with your compound...but the actual "shooting" of a trad bow is sooooooo much more rewarding.... as a hunting tool...it offers a bit more challenge!

[let.it.fly]

Say it ain't so!

it is so, you gona be out at skookum on the first? look for me, i will be driving my wifes rig of course 

i do plan on hunting with it, i know it will mean i will not fill as many tags but its all about the hunt for me.
plus im sure it will make me a better hunter. i was with in 20 yards of plenty of legal bucks this year in the methow this year so hopfully i wont go hungry next year lol. i wish i could shoot it now but its a christmas present so of course its wrapped under the tree. soon though 

[CallMeBigPapa]

I'm thinking about it, may see you there. I'll look you up if do.

[Old Dog]

I thought that was a Christmas present?   You shouldn't be shooting it yet.

Way to go. Starter bows might be better than some of the best on the market bows if you ask me. Best of luck to you

Right on man....one of these days I might switch over too...just has some sort of alure to it.

only panzys go traditional. wait a minute i'm going back to. Had enough of the idiot's and Rude people. was very succesful in the 80's. good luck it's fun. cant wait to practice this summer. Rick

LOL.. real men and women don't need "training wheels"....    One of the reasons I went back to "traditional" was at a 3D shoot,  shooting compound... and the tense atmosphere in our very competitive group... "SHHHHH"  I wasn't having much fun.. watching the trad guys laughing and cavorting through the course... hooting and hollering when someone did good and when someone shot a tree...LOL  That when I said time to go back.... now I am very, very competitive... except now when I fling an arrow if I hit the 10... whoooo hooooo,  its more fun to not expect perfection but when you do...its great.  The hunting is even more satisfying... the need to stalk up close rather than just put a pin on its chest at 55 yards and kill it.
