Hey Guys

Im sure some of you remember my thread asking how I could make the transition to solely trad bows.  I finally sold my x-force tonight and have only my recurve left.  It's official now.

Thanks!!

Hey I did the same thing this year, I started bow hunting in 1973, started with a RedWing Hunter than went to wheels 77 and 78 back to  recurve, I was a black Widow dealer from 1982 to 1988 when Ken Beck dropped the dealer program, I have taken over 40 white tails and mule deer couple elk and bear,antelope, javilina, turkey, small game,than I got caught up in all the hype of the wheel bows in 1994,what a mistake I made, anyway I sold all that crap on **** and Archey talk this year,feels great to start over again with a real bow,

Thats what I had to do 3 years ago----just take the wheels out of the closet and sell them---no moe crutch, no more mechanical backup.  i was amazed at how my shooting came along when I KNEW I had to get this instinctive stuff down if I wanted to shoot something and quit finding arrows!
Congrats!!!1

Done the exact same thing; at least we won't spend over 100.00 putting strings and cables on..  :scared:  I know how glad I made the switch and you will as well; good luck....  :campfire:

I think the guys down at the archery store (double a) think I will convert back to the wheels.  I know this is what I needed to do to concentrate on the trad bows.

I did the same thing 2 years ago and have no regrets. I don't kill as many deer with a bow as I used to, but when I do it is so much more rewarding!
