The Eastern Composite Bow; Grandfather of the Compound.
Kegan:
Frankly, I think the modern recurve, and the target self-recurve before, were more fore runners for the compound than any historical piece. Mostly because of the reasons behind their developement: war/hunting vs. technical precision and higher scores.
But I do understand your feelings about alot of shooters on televions and what not. Big egos for little reason.
woodstick:

What sort of shooting does he do? I've never seen the show, and only have 1 1/2 network television channels ;D
sailordad:
alor of ariel shots,
hundreds of arrows this guy shoots,ive seen hime do trick shots
like richochet shots,multiple arrows at once and hitting multiple targets etc etc
he truly is a great shot,just needs to tone down the hardcore heavymetal theme music that he uses.
notthat i dont like hard/heavy rock(love it)just dont like it with my hunting
kylerprochaska:
My favorite episode of his is when they went bullfrog hunting and he shot the snapping turtle!! CAN'T WAIT TO DO THAT THIS SUMMER! But I wouldn't say that there would be one traditional/primitive design that led to the compound.... I just call it unnecessary evolution ;D
