It is fastest addiction that I know of also. I just got my first trad bow for Christmas. I got just before leaving to go on R&R and I mean I got it before dinner, and left just after breakfast the next day. SO I strung it and stroked and dreamed of shooting it. Went on R&R and left it tucked in my room. I get back just yesterday and get all my back briefs and jet lag takes hold plus it was raining. Today it is still raining, so I have a strung long bow on my desk just wanting me to shoot it. When I am not thinking of shooting it, I am here on the bowyers bench looking at all the bows being built and am chomping at the bit to get my care package I sent myself so I can start building some. See only owned a bow for a little over 3 weeks never shot it and that is all I can think of. Did the world end and I did not make the cut for  heaven?
Lord help me.

I have been shooting trad for less than 2 yrs have 3 off the rack bows and had 6 custom bows built in that time. Wouldn't call that an addiction. Well maybe?
