RE: Wanting to get started in traditional archery.....
Great! Where to start......tough one there. I guess you could start by looking over the messages posted here--there are lots of answers to questions you might have, and probably some you haven't thought of (yet). Do some reading--there's a lot of good books on traditional archery, from stories of hunts and adventures to instructions on shooting and hunting. Try to locate a club that has traditional archers in it, and attend the shoots. Get the know the archers and ask a lot of questions--I about guarantee you will get offers to shoot their bows. When you are ready for a bow, look around and start out cheap and light. You can get a good quality bow at a reasonable price. I wouldn't order a custom bow at first because you don't yet know what you like or what fits you, or even if the sport is right for you.
Hope this helps--good luck!
