Title: New member introduction
Post by: RCollins on January 03, 2015, 12:07:00 PM
Hello to the Trad Gang, I have been a lurker here for years and really enjoyed reading about all of your trad hunting adventures, and your love for traditional bows.
I started bow hunting in 1962 when I graduated from High School in Plymouth Michigan. I still have my Bear Kodiak Magnum 55#, 52 inch bow from the early to mid 60's, that I am going to re-string and start shooting again. I haven't hunted with it since 1978, so I will be starting all over again.Have only missed one season bow hunting in all those years,just got away from trad for a while.
 Looking forward to being a member of this fine forum and will be asking a lot of questions in the future, I'm sure. Happy New year to you all.!!

Thanks again for the warm welcome, look forward to being a part of a forum where fellow bow hunters share a deep love and respect for the sport and show respect for fellow bow hunters.
I turn 71 years young in little over a month and have a burning desire to return to my roots, and that means hunting with a recurve. My 38 year old son, to whom I passed on this addiction to bowhunting, thinks I am nuts. He has never hunted trad, but I have a feeling that will change once I get set up and get him to try it. The nut never falls far from the tree,right? I am not a prolific poster, but I will be around and look forward to getting to know you guys.Happy hunting.

Welcome aboard from your old home state. Lots of great information here so don't be afraid to ask.  Even as a 46 year veteran of traditional archery I learn new stuff every week here.
