Another Trad shooter in the group around here .
Between getting older and arthritis I’ve had to drop way down in poundage to continue to shoot a few arrows.
My bows are a little more modern but I still shoot off the shelf , instinctive.
They’re mostly metal ILF risers , some with recurve limbs and some with reflex deflex longbow limbs .
I’ve been enjoying the longbows more lately .
But fishing is number one for me now .
