Traditional archery, once upon a time, was just called archery. Through years of innovation and development, bow technology has evolved, not just into a higher form, but into a whole new species. That being said, over the last few years many shooters have found themselves craving the challenge of the stick and the string. As such, traditional shooting has grown exponentially over the last decade and continues to become more popular year after year.
When purchasing a new bow, find out if it comes with a bow stringer. If it doesn't, make sure you get one. Always use a commercial bow stringer when stringing and unstringing any bow. If you do, you'll avoid potential physical danger to yourself and your bow. Your grandfather may have used the "step-through" method, but that is totally unsafe for you and the bow, and should NOT be done, even in a pinch. Using a stringer is not really an option; it's simply something you must do! We can't stress that enough.

I'm just starting up archery and I have no clue how to go about it. I have a recurve bow by the way. I just need some tips/suggestions to help get me going. Thank you.
I'm 14 years old, and I'd like to get into the 'competitional' style of archery, with the recurve (?) bow?? Is there a place near Orange County where I can learn and practice, with guidance provided?
I just picked up a recurve bow at the pawnshop, and it said pennys foremost on the limb. I can't find anything out about it. How old is it and how much might it be worth?
Ok, well I just recently moved to a place where i got tons of room you learn archery.
Iv been wanting to learn for years now.
Well i don't want something that extremely expensive.
But which would be best to buy that's easiest to learn shoot and aim?
i know none of that's easy
but a recurve or compound
and what brand would you suggest?
I'm thirteen and only have about $200 to spend. My parents are still in the retro era and think everything will be cheap. I dont think that is enough money to get a decent bow. I was thinking about recurve because I think compound bows are cheating. I can get a $130 bow but those are the kind that camps use and they are not that powerful at all. I wanted one that I could use at a long distance and still be acurate and powerful. I really dont think I can get what I want with the money I have. If you know of any bows that I could get for that price, please tell me. If not, I can always get something that woud have alot more use such as a metal detector, crossbow, buy a whole bunch of clothes, a knife, paintball gun, etc... Thank you, best answer gets 10 points.
I'm going to travel to the US soon, and I've always wanted to buy a bow, so I was wandering if you knew of any good Orlando store, if there is a link to a website I'd appreciate it, too. (I'm looking for Recurve bows just in case)
