I was sitting through my 12 year old daughter's hunter safety course..(she just passed last night)....anyhoo....
The instructor said that compound bows are getting to be extinct...They are a dime a dozen that no one wants them anymore. People are switching back to traditional bows instead. Is this true? I find that hard to believe. I like either one. It really puzzled me.

hmmm Seems the instructor might be one of those trads, at any rate what he is putting out isn't exactley the truth. All my compounds are alive and well.

Just look around and see who is shooting what. I know alot of people who shoot traditional but I know 5 times more poeple who shoot compounds. I have one of each but I my compound see a lot more daylight than the recurve does. The amount of bows Mathews, Bowtech and hoyt are selling this year I doubt his statement is true. Hopefully the rest of the safety coarse dealt with facts.

Yep, I tried to tell him that, but, he only wanted to argue...said he was older and had been around more...

So, I stopped talking about it. Thought I'd come on here and see what you guys thought.

They let this guy teach hunter safety? I'm not so sure he knows what he is talking about.

Those damn trad guys are always looking to pick a fight!

Who's a trad?



And...yeah...that's what I was thinking...I wondered who let this guy in...but..my daughter passed it, and I signed her up with a 4-H hunting/trap shooting group that she will learn a lot from. So, I just let it pass...
