Hello,

My name is Ted and I've just joined Trad Gang.  I was a strong traditional archer in my teens  and moved away from the sport as college, work and family took over.  Going to sea for thirty years didn't help the situation either.   Friends reintroduced me to archery within the past three years and I became hooked again.  

I started off with the Bear Cub that I had purchased when I was 12.  I continued  with recurves, inclusive of sights, scopes, releases... switched to compounds and found them  too easy.  I'm now on the road to recovery!  

Traditional all the way.

Ted

Welcome to the Gang, Ted!  And welcome home to the land and to the land of stickbows.

I went on a cruise some years back and stood on the stern watching Aruba disappear on the horizon.  The sea can tug at you for sure.
