Want to really get them going? Ask them who their favorite Nascar driver is and why? LOL

I personally don't see anything special about it. Drive fast, turn left. Big deal. The highway patrol does that all the time around here.

I shoot both because their both a blast! I switched to compounds because I was fascinated with the new technology back then. I must admit when I first started shooting compounds I was extremely intimidated by the wheels and cables. With every shot I expected something to blow up in my face. It was probably a good year before I was relaxed enough to start shooting good.

I also noticed the same with my eldest son. I started him with a recurve and he loved it. I purchased a compound for him and he's also intimidated by it and likes the recurve much better. The reason I'm mentioning this is because I feel if I would have started him off with a compound I'm afraid he would have decided that archery just wasn't for him and showed no interest in trying anything else. Keep that in mind when trying to bring a kid into archery!

Around here we have two classes (with 3 steaks) for our 3d tourneys. The compounds hunters class and trad class shoot together and we have a great time. The open class shoot their rounds seperate from hunters class and it works great for everyone!

I posted this because I was curious to see why we did what we did me I like to shoot both styles and I even have one of my compounds set up for trad shooting. I have a blast doing both I pay more attention to a person skill level then what he shoots. Archery is fun for every one who give it a try!
