Congrats Zak! Traditional bows are a passion of mine as well. I switched from compounds several years ago. At the time, my intent was to continue shooting both bows. Within two months of buying my first longbow, I put my compound away for good and shortly after sold it. Shooting traditional bows is just shear pleasure.

Though simple, traditional bows require very close attention to form and release. Properly matched arrows are also a must for good arrow flight and accuracy. Some people seem to view traditional bows as toys, and their attempts at shooting them are made with equal conviction. Accuracy comes with a focused and deliberate mindset.

I don't know what you know of equipment matching and tuning, form, release, or aiming techniques. I'll recommend Byron Ferguson's book, "Become the Arrow". It teaches all of the above topics, including an aiming technique similar to Howard Hill's split vision method.

Have fun!

PS - Beware if your interest is ever piqued in selfbows. Their allure has been known to drive men mad, driving them to stay up all hours of night to shave and bend staves of wood into submission, in the hope of creating a well tillered spring that will drive a feathered shaft through wild game.
