Thread: any trad guys here?

there isnt very many of us these days so I thought I would ask.

I shoot a custom rose oak recurve @52lbs

can not pull my bow any more so I gave it to my son 65lb Peirce Coland working recurve made in 1958

There is several of us on here who mess with them. I don't know if any are trad only.
Several of us are going on a trad hunt next weekend.
I am getting my new apex predator custom later this week.
It's gonna shoot 59@28"

Nice, apex makes good sticks. Im not trad only by far. But I do enjoy it.

I got rid of mine last year. Which I really regret. It was a black widow made in 1957. 59# @28" It was a great bow. The jackass I sold it to broke it trying to string it without a stringer. It cracked right at the riser. Then he tried to blame it on me. Luckily I had pictures of it before I sent it. The crack would have been seen in one of them. I wanted to for doing it.

I love BW bows. I always say im gonna get one and never do. And I would have as well.

I have my father's old Bear Kodiak Magnum (60s or 70s era). I've goofed around with it, but haven't hunted with it yet. I need to get a string since it's the old original. It's 52", 45#

I have two or three recurves and 3 or 4 long bows, that range in diff lbs. My brothers and I have been shooting since we were kids.
