I just got into hunting, this seson is my first, and I want to get onto archery. I shot a friend's crossbow and wanted one, but as it turns out, they are not legal for me to use. I still want to try archery, but I don't know which bow would be better. Compounds look like they need lots of TLC and repeated maintenence, which i don't want to deal with. I have also heard compounds are faster and more accurate than traditionals. If so, how big of a difference is there? I guess I need to know if the compound is worth the trouble or if I should stick with a traditional. Thanks for the help.
