First thing I'd suggest working on is getting the bow out.

Are you sure you posted in the right forum? We don't get many traditional bowhunters who put their bows away when the season closes and never touch them again until the next season opens.

If you have not shot a trad bow yet. Proably the first thing to work of drawing the bow and keeping the arrow on the shelf/rest. It's easier said then done for 1st timers.

I didn't even think you might be a beginning traditional shooter. That's what happens when I post before I get good and woke up in the morning. Sorry.

Yep. I agree with Bob. That pinching the arrow and spinning it off the rest while drawing is pretty common and really frustrating for new shooters.

Practice, practice, practice.

Ive yet to pull out my trads for a hunt. I was busy this summer and didnt get to shot them as much as I would like. So the start of this season Ive been taking out the compound. Ive only been out twice and taken a doe. Ive been working on my recurve and will be using it from here on out.

I wouldn't worry after I re-read what I posted and all the typos in it. [:'(]
