.....that still shoots aluminum arrows?


.....that still uses my fingers instead of a release to shoot the bow?

The guy at the archery shop couldn't believe it.  ;D

You might be.  I hated aluminum arrows and was glad to switch over to the carbon arrows.  But I do miss shooting without a release.

A dying breed for sure.... ;)  Good for you!! We have made all these strides forward in the name of progress in Archery.
Yet it still remains the fact that more animals were killed in the early days of the sport with simple tools. The hunters knew the limitations and learned to be better hunters, not buy newer equipment..... ;) ;) ;)
