RE: When archery isn't archery any more?
Ive spent 2,800 on 2 crossbows and a new compound this year with extras.Spring of 06 I spent 1,700 on Trad gear,1 TD Recurve,1 Martin Recurve and a Longbow,3dz ceder arrows,glove's,quiver's,BH's,FP's,and some other odd and ends.My plan was to practice all of last yr and trad hunt this yr but due to shoulder surgery I had to go crossbow this yr and hopefully I will be able to shoot Trad again nxt yr.
I stopped rifle hunting in 82 because I felt it wasnt a challage anymore and now I feel the same way about Compound.
I love my Martin Hunter.....50# @ 28",w/ceder 50/55 @29-1/2 bopand 125 fp's and bh's.....
