Silentassassin - I would bet a slice of Ma's apple pie you'd shoot just about every good buck that comes your way regardless if you shot compounds, crossbows or recurves. Why ? Youre a dang good hunter, you know HOW to hunt .... the only thing that would change is the when it comes time to shoot and you'd quickly adjust to a trad bow IMO. Like I said, I'd bet on it
stealthy,
I appreciate the vote of confidence but there are some guys that I hunt with that constantly remind me that not only am I not as good as them but also I am not as good as I would like to be. You know I am all for someone shooting whatever they prefer. I am actually not bad with trad equipment and I can forsee me hunting some with trad equipment in the future. As to whether or not I will be as successful, I seriously doubt it, but I think I would manage. If I came off to harsh I apologize. Sometimes when I read your posts I don't even make it to the smileys before I start typing my response

Stealthy, I hope you kill a monster with your trad equipment this year. You'll probably be hard to live with but it will make for some lively debates
