Traditional archery??

Well there are very few who even know what it means. And all those people shooting the 80% dropoff compounds are complaining cause the states are letting people use crossbows. Sheesh.. Let the complainers have to use a recurve no sights no release no nothing..It's all about having time in the great outdoors. Who cares what they use. I personally like the old Longbow or a recurve much much better. I used compounds when they first came out..in fact I was a distributor for one of the big names at one time..couldn't shoot their bows worth a toot. Or at least that is the way I felt. In fact I just got a Hoyt recurve..A few years old. Never had an arrow shot with it. No arrow rest on it in fact. I also got a LARGE stash of Port Orford Cedar arrow shafts knocks feathers fletching tools etc etc etc..Just what I need. Probably gonna put it all on ebay..Oh BTW I also have an old Barnett crossbow and my father in laws crossbow. It is fun to shoot. I also have my old Bear Super Kodiak recurve from 1971..Shot a whole lot of deer with that bow. Longest trailing job I ever had was about 80 yds..And it is a 42 lb pull bow at 28 inches.48 at my normal 31 inch
