Title: Tradgangers Must Read,
Post by: Warberg on May 12, 2010, 01:20:00 PM

In these tough economic times for many, including myself, We did a spring cleaning yard sale mother's day weekend. A young man stopped by asking about recurves and archery equipment. After asking info on type, brands, ect. He explained he was looking for a older bow he and his father could restore. He began to explain about a restoration topic that local man had put on a site for traditional archers. I showed him a few bows, but none were down his alley on weight and price. He explained he was graduating next month from high school and was short on work. So i asked him to hang on a second that i had a early graduation present. Knowing he was following the restoration 101. By Bowdoc. I happily gave him a old Bear arrow that doc signed for me and my family. I wished him congrats and good luck on his search. This is the power of the TradGang, and even though over all we are a small family, The power of this site, and the info is huge. Only a short story of another way Tradgang is helping our future archers. Hats off to this site and BDoc for his 101 class. Thank You.
