I hunt with moderen equipment but try to keep it as simple as possible. I do my best to avoid the latest and greatest wiz thing until it has been proven or I find it necessary.

I hunt with both, and use only the compound for 3d league. I plan to use only the trad bows this coming season for hunting though.

I use modern equipment, but I am looking to get into traditional. I met a guy around here that builds his own bows, makes his own broadheads out of flint, etc. A true traditionalist, it was very interesting. I don't think I will go as traditional as the local but I definitley want to give it a try.

Well I currently use both but I am considering putting down the training wheels and going strictly traditional.
