I think you're suffering from high tech burn out and the challenge is gone.

Where is your challenge ? You can kill any deer that comes by with your compound, can't you ? Your'e perched in a tree, waiting, bored ....... you need a change of challenge IMO

Traditional archery. Pick up a recurve and you'll rediscover what archery is suppose to be. Leave the treestand at home, try stalking through the woods, watching, breathing, EXPERIENCING the hunt with a trad bow in your hand.

It feels different, it makes you proud to be stepping back and making the hunt tougher instead of easier.

If you were in Arkansas I'd let you shoot my bows and see what you thought.
