Trad guys

So I'm actually going against the crowd in this argument. Trad bow gears have actually been more expensive for me then compound world. But this is by choice, which I think just depend on each individual. I never had more then 3 compound bows at any one time; main hunting, a backup, and a lower poundage for fun in the yard. If I get bored with a particular bow or sight, I have no problem selling it to fund a replacement. But right now I have 8 (I think?) trad bows and I'm constantly on the look out for my next one and don't plan on selling any that I have.

Someone on this forum told me once "Life is to short to shoot ugly bows!", I am fully on that train of thought!

Look at Creek Walker Trading quiver start at $275!

Money is there to be spend in quality and customization.
There is something about traditional archery that makes you want to buy bows, I have seen that, but I have been fortunate in that I haven’t fallen in that pit. I have one ILF bow with both light and hunting weight limbs. That said, there are bows I would buy in a heartbeat if I found myself at a weakened moment ;).
