    There wasn't any trad when I started just bow and arrows. My first real hunting bow was an American Archery Cheetah Standard recurve. Somebody stole it when I left it up in the tree to go to camp for lunch. I left my pole climbers at the bottom of the tree when I climbed down and they came along put on my climbers climbed up and stole my bow and climbers. I was in a hunting club and felt it was safe to leave it...had to have been a member that got it. Anyway, I then bought a Black Widow new for about $150.00. Wilson Bros.

    whatched a show with Tred Barta, and wanted to try a traditional bow. Couldn't afford to purchase trad equip so made myself a long bow and loved it. I've made about 6 bows now. Hunted with it once last year and missed, need more practice.
