QuoteIn order to better moderate the Traditional Bows classifieds, to protect all members against cheats and scams, all members wishing to post a sell, trade or want-to-buy ad in the Trad Bow Classifieds forum ...

1. You must have a minimum of 100 posts - the majority of these posts must not be classifieds or giveaways.

2. You must request bow ad posting permission by sending a pm (private message) to me (Rob DiStefano) or an email to webmaster@tradgang.com - please include your member number in your email.

No matter what your post count or member title, you must request bow ad posting permission - all requests will be reviewed.

You only need bow ad posting permission ONCE, no need to request it again!

We have the right to not allow access to the Trad Bow classifieds if we determine that a member is using Trad Gang almost solely as a buy/sell vehicle, and not sharing trad archery/bowhunting info in other forums.

If the majority of your posts are in the classifieds, or within giveaway topics, you will not be granted trad bow classifieds ad posting permission.

Trad Gang is NOT about buying/selling gear - that is periphery function only.

Do not become a Trad Gang member if buying and selling and trading is your sole purpose for joining. If we find you've bumped up your post count by doing the ttt thing, you will NOT get access to ALL of trad gang.

Thank you.

Welcome to the tradgang family!

Please jump in with both feet and don't just be a lurker.

I believe everyone has something to add and even though you've been out of it for a time I bet it won't take you long to start remembering what worked for you and what didn't(as important as the former).

Enjoy this wonderful journey with the rest of us!

God bless,Mudd

Welcome. This is a great group of people. We all share the same interests and values.
I prefer Trad hunting because it is so much more challenging and rewarding.
