Title: New Convert
Post by: mrjsl on October 04, 2010, 11:27:00 AM
About a month ago I was at the camp for dove season, and I took my recurve and we all did some shooting. By buddy's son, who is 17 tried out their old PSE longbow. Using old arrows he was shooting out of a compound, he did alright, and we did a lot of shooting.

Yesterday, he went out to a stand by himself and killed a doe with the longbow and not only was it his first deer with traditional equipment, it was his first deer with a bow of any kind.

Good for him: I shot several deer with a compound 20 some years ago before swiching to traditional equipment, and for me anyway there is no comparison, traditional RULES!
