Any traditional bow hunters? I shoot both compounds and recurves. My recurves get about 90% of my time, but there is no denying that the compound is a superior weapon for most of my hunting needs here in the west. Something about the simplicity of a nice Trad bow is really fun. Once you figure out an aiming system and get your form down it can be surprising how accurate you can be. I shot a personal best 284 25X with a NFAA Trad Legal recurve this spring before I put it away and got my hunting recurve out.

I walked out the door of our pro shop with a Mission Craze combo all set up by the guy and his son, arrows cut to my length, sight adjusted (think bore sighted) , release and a block target for $645 tax included. I'm excited to get back into it after a dozen years away!!

I've been nose deep into "Archery Talk", well more reading than talking. The changes in equipment and set up is pretty amazing. The little vanes and cruise missiles outta 60# 80% let off. Nuts.
Pretty much sold on a 2014 Quest Drive at the moment.
