Title: I think I am in trouble
Post by: TXHunter on April 16, 2010, 06:41:00 PM
I received my first bow today a bear grizzly. Long story short, I love it. This is going to be somewhat difficult I see but I love the challenge.

Chances are, you'll be hooked in no time.
Stay with it, it's extremely satisfying once it starts coming together. Good luck!

Last year when i took up trad archery i couldnt hit the broad side of a barn, no kidding.

I went and got some lessons from Rod Jenkins and i have to say i am a pretty darn good shot.

Practice practice practice and use good form and it will all come together.

I've been at it for a while but didn't dedicate myself to it until I found TradGang.
I try to scan PowWow every morning and every evening just to see what I may have missed while away.
And when I run into an interesting topic, the search button can keep me busy for hours on end.

I can't go a but a few days without loosing some arrows.  This site helps me get over the in between days.

Once you get the basics down; begin learning to trust yourself; don't out think your instinct.  If you think about missing you probably will.  Go to some 3D shoots to begin for the varied distance and terrain practice.

Make friends and enjoy!
