RE: Going to try Trad
Ebay, lots of bows...
Ogle county? Close to Dixon? Sauk Valley Archers are having an indoor 3-D on Jan. 17th. Some of the members or visiting archers may be using trad bows. Good way to get aquainted with those that shoot 'em... maybe an opportunity to shoot a few different bows.
'Reasonable' price.... depending on your spending limit, usually TD's are difficult to find for much less that $200. One-piece used 'curves can be had for $50-$150. There are some quality, new one-piecers out there for around $200.
