greg:
I love my new longbow.....and MY goal is to become proficient with it.....and hunt the entire '08 season with it. Thats the goal, right now.
I've got a couple more things I want to do with the compound......and then it'll be trad gear for me, hopefully...exclusively (for one season). It's something I want to do. I'm SURE there will be times next year when I take the compound.....but the first time I saw a traditional arrow fly true........I knew I'd never be (personally) satisfied as an archer until I took a deer with the longbow.
Just wake up and take whichever one feels right. GREAT problem to have.....if you asked me.
