Title: Offically Traditional.
Post by: 30pointbuck on March 03, 2011, 06:44:00 PM
Today I finally pulled the trigger, and traded the last of my wheel bow's for a custom T/D Recurve. Now it's offical, 100% Traditional. No lookin back now.    :goldtooth:

Great! Good for you man. I did the same thing twice, the last time being in 2008. The first time I did it was around 1995 but that lasted only until 1999 I think it was.

That last time was for good. I am "wheel free" and loving it more and more everyday.

Wish I could jump off the fence like you!  I've only been shooting trad for 8 months but love it more and more every time I shoot.  Just can't quite bring myself to dump the wheels even though I haven't even looked at the thing in 8 months.  I think once I get my first animal and prove to myself I can really do it I'll have an easier time taking the training wheels off.

I love everything about traditional archery, nothing like it. From bow tuning to arrow building. To me it's much more rewarding to watch an arrow you built fly like a dart, and hit where you look.   :archer2:

You will be glad you switched traditional is more simple and less complicated. More natural. Good luck.
