35 here, I think the average age is scewed in our society currently...outside of this site anyways.  With the release of Hunger games, LotR and Avengers a lot of younger kids jumped into archery as a fad, but I'm sure that will quickly fade.

I started out with training wheels for a few years and have been shooting traditional for the past 2 or so years.

I'll be 35 on Thanksgiving. Gave up the rifle and bought my first bow, a longbow two months ago. Will still get a rifle tag every year but the focus and main priority will always be traditional from now on.
