I could feel the excitement over here In Minnesota reading your thread Joe!! There sure Is a huge difference with shooting at one with a compound then shooting at one with a traditional bow. No one can experience It until they've done It. You'll get er done yet Joe, stick to It buddy!! I absolutely can not wait till you stick one!!! I'll be celebrating right along with ya but just a little to the west In front of the screen chugging down a cold one saying, here's to you bud on your 1st traditional kill!!
