Hi TradTalk, Longtime bowhunter and shooter, mostly compound but have been dabbling in trad for a few years. Found my way over from ArcheryTalk because I needed info on (s/q)warfing a bow. I have an early '90s era Golden Eagle Falcon Flame that blew a steel cable 15 years ago and has been...

I am lucky enough to own a Bear take down "C" riser, ~1969 vintage. The rest installed is a bristle type, in a rectangular shape and recessed ~1/8" into riser. As the original rest area is cut/recessed into the riser, it seems likely I can find some modern rest which could be trimmed to fit...

Hey guys, I'm a bit behind the times regarding the rule changes to allow 12" stabilizers in traditional classes. In shooting with friends it didn't really concern me, and I just went without one in tournaments. I wasn't too keen about adding additional stabilizing weight to my 650 Club, so I...

I've found this forum to be a great source of advice as I try to advance my understanding of archery equipment and am hoping I can get some input on my specific (though common) situation. I'm currently shooting a pretty basic takedown recurve that has served me well for a couple years, but I...

Greeting all, I'm new to the ILF world and I would like to get limbs in the 40# range and am looking for information. Main use for 3D. I have an old PSE Sierra Hunter, 23" Riser with 50 & 55 # limbs and the original springy. (62" bow from about year 1999) It's the camo bow that was similar...

So, new "traditional" shooter here--after shooting compounds right handed I have recently decided to go traditional left handed (with my dominant eye). In fact, I'm the proud new owner of a 35# Samick Sage and absolutely love it. I have spent many hours watching recommended you tube videos...

First of all, I apologize for the length of this post. I wanted to make sure I covered everything I could. I’m looking to get into archery for the first time—just target shooting for recreation, no hunting. Until recently (a week ago), I had never shot an arrow. While it’s something that I’ve...

Well, I picked up a 1972 Red Wing Hunter 45#@28" 58" AMO. The claim is that it has never been fired. From the pictures it looks like the finish is very good. I got it for what I think is a really good price. Word on the street is that the RWH is one of the best bows ever built and I have got...

Right guys, I need or rather would love to here your thoughts on mental training in archery. I am very interested in coping strategies for competitions and training. I have come to realise that I can rattle out as many arrows I like but the real challenge lies in what goes on upstairs in your...

I recently purchased a used Howatt Hunter that arrived safely today via UPS. I've always wanted one because of its great reputation as a hunting bow! The serial number is HH0441. [email protected] Can anyone tell me what year this bow was made and what the riser wood is made of? Thanks in advance!

Once again I'm new to all this. I have a 21 inch Hoyt Excel riser on the way, that I got for 148 bucks from a local archery shop here in southern W.Va.(Mountain Heritage Archery PH.# 304-888-1617). My draw length is close to 30. I am looking for 40 lb. limbs that are smooth,stack free as...

I just bought a black bear riser set up by Mr. Gordon to accept quinn limbs, I have owned a quinn before and I loved the limbs. So I bought the riser and then I called quinn archery and talked with Peggy. I was really wanting to get a set of 65# limbs this riser b/c from what I have been told is...

Hi everyone! To be brief, my father and I have been hunting with compounds for a long time and we're both very interested in getting into traditional archery. This looks like the place to be! First off, I have been doing some research and it seems like the general consensus is that a beginner...

Hopefully some of you guys can help me in my quest. I have been bow hunting for 10 years and have killed bear,deer,caribou and last year a beautiful P&Y Dall ram with my compound but as with my switch from a rifle to a compound for more challenge I am still seeking something more challenging. I...
