Started trad (target recurve bow) in 84 ,played with compound for a little while 86,87 then back to trad until I shot wheels again for a year (2010) as a promise to a close hunting friend who didn't make the trip we planned .don't own a compound any more. Good kit just not for me . John

I've been all traditional going on ten years now. Never did care for gun hunting and selling the wheels was the best decision I've ever made. I just prefer the longbow.... love it!

To me; two different sports,two different world.Trad only for 15 years...
An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

Trad only for the last 16 yrs. I can hardly shoot a gun anymore because of the noise. I also lost a lot of hearing from shooting guns years age.

Trad only since '95, never even thought of shooting anything else again.

I double dip as I call it.I love archery too much to exclude myself from wheel bows.

Trad bows have beauty and craftsmanship,wheels have engineering and tech.

I have been Traditional Only since middle 80's. The last deer I shot with a gun was 85 I think. Never shot a compound. I actually haven't done any gun hunting for anything but I took my sons gun hunting when young. Now one hunts Trad Only the other could care less about it. Guns going off make my head hurt!

sold my wheels a week before buying my first stick i told my friend that was my last deer with a wheel an that was it...16 years ago..

Trad only for all my archery.  The culture up here dictates preperation for long sometimes hard winters and it just means too much to run around trying to provide good quality meat with a stick and string.  600lbs of meat for the cost of one 300WSM cartridge is just sound economics, and with 300+ yds range, it's a no brainer.

Love shooting trad and have the addiction full on.

Never owned any other bow aside from Trad ones  :)

Like others said, nothing against them just never shot any nor do I plan to  :)
