Tred is the reason I am shooting traditional. After shooting a duck with my neighbor, he came over, introduced himself, and gave my sons these bows. Then he mailed them some of his wooden arrows for Christmas. That was when I bought me a longbow. So of course I like him. He is genuine, but his style is all show and he admits it.
The fun part was how fascinated my sons were with string and stick. They are such gearheads (I taught them well

) that I never imagined such a simple machine would spark their interest.
I put this picture uplast December under Bowhunting in a very long Tred thread - sorry if you already saw it.
