:clapper:
I finally decided on my first trad! My thought was to keep my initial purchase at or below $200. I ended up buying a custom off of e**y. A 62" 49lb@28" recurve. If I can figure out how to post pics, I'll list some later. I contemplated on buying an older mainstream bow (martin, howatt, bear, etc.) but went with the custom because of looks and fast flight compatability. I routinely browse the different trad boards, but find Tradgang to be the best of them, by far. Thanks
