Swamprat
How many of you that in your bowhunting life have got fed up with all the technology, pro shops, etc. and said the heck with it and went to traditional.
I pretty much made the switch several years ago after it seemed like every time I went to the pro shop they were pretty much bent on selling the latest and greatest and not catering to my needs.
I said heck with them and the mainstream industry and bought me a Bear recurve and have had probably more fun going back to simpler equipment. I have always shot instinctively with a compound so the transition was not hard.
I enjoy the hunt more with a recurve since I left 20 pounds of junk at the house and alot less to keep track of. I still break out the compound from time to time but I just don't find it as challenging.
