Friend, new friends, old friends and dear friends.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

I loved it as soon as I started, that hasn't been that long.  Just a couple of years.  There is definitely no turning back now.  I had a bit of a lull last year but then I found this site.  Funny how something so technological could keep you up on your primitive side.  The generosity on this forum is something that I thought was lost to modern society.  So glad to be a part of something that so gratifying.  So if you couldn't tell archery means a lot to me.  It's something that could never get old. There are too many facets.

Two yrs ago archery to me was: Them "Stick Flickers". Last year I made a stick bend and found this site, and now I find archery is; relaxing and filled with really talented, & nice people. Ed

its a challenge, the pursuit of perfection(perfect form, perfect anchor, perfect release, perfect follow through, perfect shot). its an outlet, something i can throw myself into and get lost. i cant tell you how many time ive gone in my back yard and just shot for hours barely aware of what im doing. its my break from the world.

It seems as though it is the hub in which my wheel of life turns. Past memory, present desires, future hopes. A gathering activity for family and friends. My dog even loves to see me walk out toward my truck bow in hand, it means we're going on a hike in the Mnts. Accept bow season then he feels a little left out. :'(
