Today I sold my compound bow that I haven't shot since Labor day weekend 2016. I've been wanting to get rid of it for months but was waiting for the market to be right. It felt good and no second thoughts. I'm officially committed now.

Congrats on the sale and good job on committing 100% to the trad life. There's nothing quite like it!

Sounds good!  

Heck yeah. You won't regret it. It felt good when I got rid of mine too.

   

       

  a decision you will not regret. The traditional archery journey is AWESOME!!

You should of kept the compound and warfed it.

Welcome to the trad world.  I don't think you'll be disappointed with your decision.

Congratulations on making a decision that you are pleased with. I am not so polarized; I would never sell my compound, but just choose not to shoot it very much. I mashed my right ring finger at work and for maybe a week or so shooting my traditional gear may not be an option.  I am happy to have a back up plan if I want to see some arrows fly.

I sold the wheels thirty years ago and never looked back. I have not shot a compound since then.

I did touch one about four years ago though. It was heavy and cold.

   

Have fun Kevin.  Nothin' like trad.

Freedom attained to be Fully engaged in the traditional journey.

Got rid of your crutch, now you can rely on yourself.        

This was one of the best things that I did, longtime ago, selling mine.  It made me commit myself more to mastering the stick and string and I never looked back.

Haven't shot a compound in since I changed 4 years ago - I won't sell mine just because of kid I take hunting and grandson. But I have zero desire to ever touch one again myself.

Uh oh now it's on. Be careful you'll end up with a bad addiction like the rest of us lol.

Congrats! That decision seemed to make me enjoy hunting and archery in general a whole lot more.
