C'pounds were patented in '68, Gundeck, but didn't really startbeing seen muchuntilseveral years later. There was quite a fight about getting them legalized for bowhunting seasons.I was among the 'purists' who wasagainst them, so I refused to even touch one until I finally gave in, in '79. I've had a lot of good times and won many tournaments with compounds, but still did most of my hunting with traditional bows. Sometimes I regret ever having picked up a compound, but the fit usually passes pretty quickly. [8D]

Old fart, Germ? Moi??
