I went to Cinnamon Creek ranch yesterday to shoot some 3D rounds and buy BStinger. This is compound heaven. While I was trying to get a Bstinger from behind the counter (which took about 45 minutes, then another 30 minutes to get to the cash register) 3 salesman were busy with three different customers and $1200+ compounds before the accessories.
They had every possible thing a compounders could need. I ask if they had any bare bow traditional shooters. The salesman asked another the question. He said yes I have seen one or two. They shoot some high end Olympic risers but he could not remember the name of the risers.
These guys are sale $2000+ compounds, they are certified techs, and Olympic equipment is not seen often enough they can remember the name.
The shooting lanes were full, compounds, trainings lanes were full compounds, not a bare bow rig on any of the range save mine. I was only shooter out of 100+ on the field targets and the only shooter with traditional equipment except for rent a bows.
Mostly no surprise. It was interesting that the Stolid Bull and Hex 6s would get a glance look then they would look at me......
like what in the world is that old geezer dragging that dinosaur round for. I guess he can't afford a good bow
. On the range some one with a high end compound and been shooting for 6 weeks would shoot 11 to my 8's. After about 5 targets one of the shooters asked if I would like to try his compound? ask me how long I been shooting??? LOL
