Title: gettin back in it.....!
Post by: deermaster1 on October 18, 2008, 07:28:00 PM
well the trad bug has bitten again.  i made a poor hit on a doe last year, due to tp, and have had a terrible fight with it all spring and summer.  i tried every method out there to beat it, but i just figured some time off would be the only cure.  so i sold some archery stuff and bought another compound, and have been making tiny groups out to 70 yards all summer.  openign day i killed a 160 lb doe, and a few days later, a 100 lb doe.  i am having a blast, but trad equipment is what i have the most fun with.  well, i got out my longbow for the first time in months, today, and let me tell you, that huge group at 20 yards was so much more fun than a 6" at 70 yards with my compund!  i love all kinds of archery, but this is IT!  i mean, this stuff is so much fun.  every time i shoot my longbow from now on, i will be doing many things differnet, to keep the panic away.  all went well today, and i look foward to having alot more fun in the future!
