Title: I discovered TRADITIONAL BOWS!
Post by: mainehunt on June 05, 2011, 11:16:09 pm

I have really been missing out. I have been shooting compounds since 1983. Yesterday I borrowed a 45# bear Kodiak Magnum and some arrows from a guy in our club. I shot today's 3-D tournament with it. WHAT A BLAST.

I didn't score all that well, but I had the most fun ever at a tournament. Out of 30 targets I scored 159.  I hit 25 out of 30 targets.

Just had to tell somebody.  ;D

Welcome to the club. Now you need to make a real bow. You think you're excited about shooting a trad bow wait til you score a 160 with a bow you made yourself!  8)
