Hate to see an empty community… So what are you people shooting? Where? For how long?

    Hey there!

    Born in NJ, currently living Chester County PA.

    So after growing out of playing Robin Hood as a kid I drifted away from archery. Then about 15 years ago I inherited my grandfather’s recurves when he passed and i jumped back in shooting the 55# at an inadequate target in my yard. 🙄

    Fast forward a bit & now I have 3 kid bows my 2 daughters either shoot or have outgrown (from the amusing Bear 1st Shot up through the 13yo’s 60" 29# Titan) and that I use to introduce archery to local kids.

    On a sad note, drawing an arrow with a broken nock last year resulted in the tip of my grandfather’s bow exploding and major delamination of one limb.😞

    It now hangs on my wall with the other two I inherited which I am too chicken to even string up, lest I frak them up as well.

    I plan on replacing it this year, but I can’t settle on what with just yet.

    Whew!
