Way to go man,when I look at those old Compound that I stored and never more used' in the last 15 years they look obsolete,my recurves of the 60's are still work of art, a string on and ready to go in 5 seconds

good job man!

i was having a tough season a few years back and in a moment of weakness took the c-pound out on a hunt. it was a sad hunt and only a reminder of why i chose trad to begin with. sold my c-pound soon after and never regretted it.

having a c-pound lying around will diminish people's potential and/or enjoyment of trad archery in my opinion.

enjoy!!!      :thumbsup:

Only way to do it. It is definately a decision you wont regret.

I still have one of my compounds.  If I want to take my trad bow, i just take it.  I dont think having the compound diminishes anything for me.  It's a constant reminder why I chose the Bob Lee.  Those wheels, strings, sights, stabilizers, etc are a reminder to continue to keep things simple.

I haven't shot my compound in about 4 years.

The year before I had a really nice 8 pointer working a scrape at about 12 yards. I'd been shooting my longbow all summer and was using the compound. I canted the bow, took the instinctive shot and watched it go right under his belly.

I realized then that I need to stick with one or the other because the brain got confused when under the gun and I reverted to the instinctive shot when I shoulda used the old sight pins.

I still have it and tried to sell it. It was a step above beginner compound when I bought it 18 years ago. Now no one wants to buy it because it's so outdated compared to the tech stuff now.

LOL seems there comes a time when ya just know it's time to let go.I held on to mine,still have some older dust collectors,for a good many yrs till I cracked the limb tips in my curve and dust off the wheels for turkeys...shot about a doz arrows and sold it not hunting hunting turkeys at all that yr I just knew it was time
Shoot straight and have FUN!!

Sometimes I wish I had a whole lot of old wheelie bows, which I could - of course - sell, to afford some badass trad bows!
The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

swampbuck

LOL those "old wheelie bows" don't hold their value and are genrally worthless after 10yrs probably less I suppose a whole lot could add up    :biglaugh:
Shoot straight and have FUN!!
