I have put the two-page pdf article in the Download Library under Fixing Twisted Recurve Limbs and it is available to all members who want it. Good luck with the bows. 😀

Hi Dave,

That issue is available in print so you can order it from the site using this link: Oct/ Nov 2009. Give me a bit and I’ll see if I can get a PDF version of just that article for you.

Hey JimyG. Thanks for posting your question and welcome to the forum. I know we have a few target archers on here. I’ll see if I can round up someone to answer your question. Whereabouts do you shoot?

I will add my welcome to Bruce’s. We’re glad to have you here 8pointer.

A while back we posted a Tip of the Week on Wood Arrow Spine from T.J.’s book The Traditional Bowhunter’s Handbook. I hope it helps get you started.

Welcome to you, Homer, and all of the new members. I’m not too hard to get along with…I try to stay out of the way unless you need some help. 8)

We really do have a great group of folks here. Not all of them agree, that’s what makes it interesting, but be prepared to back up your opinions with facts. New folks ask questions that you can probably help with, so feel free to chime in if you have anything to add. And most of all, have fun and make some new friends. 😀

You might ask this lady. I know she works with both the Nevada and California clubs. Worth a shot. Nevada Traditional Archers-Marilyn Dutra, 291 Seavey Rd., Petaluma, CA 94952, 707-763-6574, mar2steve@aol.com

I was also thinking of Tim Meigs in Carson City, NV. His ad isn’t in the last few issues so you might have to do a Google search. Good luck.

in reply to: Any trad archers from Northern Alberta? #14678

I just checked the Club Listings and there is a contact for Alberta Traditional Bowhunters Association. It looks like the guy is in the same city as you are. I have worked with this gentleman and I’m sure he can help you find trad shooters in your area. Give him a call.

Hello Redeemed, welcome to the site. I’m sure someone else with more experience will chime in on this subject. We have had several threads that involve ghillie suits. You can find them by using the search function right below the words “Traditional Bowhunter® Magazine Forums”. You can search for certain authors or terms, so put ghillie into the terms and see what you can find. Good luck.

You might try contacting this club and see if they have any members in your area. They seem to be a very active club but I don’t know exactly where they meet.

Hello Gene2, welcome to the campfire. I know the other guys will chime in about your carbon arrow questions. I can help you with the Advertiser Link List. These are businesses that pay to advertise on our web site. You get lots of free content here because of these folks, so try to go to their sites first, if you can.

Premium Members get the digital version of Traditional Bowhunter, and that has links to all of the advertisers who put their web address in their ad. There isn’t an index of all of them, but hunting through the magazine is half the fun. 😀

Wow, Dennis. This is great. Mind if I use it for the Tip of the Week sometime? I’ll get permission from the other guy too. Thanks for sharing. 😀

in reply to: Computer Backgrounds….??? #61213

Hi Bullseye, welcome to the site. I’ll try to take a stab at this.

I don’t really know where you would find “traditional archery” pictures for a background unless they are your images. Many images on the internet are copyrighted and you could get in trouble for just using someone else’s image. I give you permission to use one of our cover images, as long it is for your own personal use. It might look funny on your computer, though as the screen is more of a landscape setting and our cover would be a portrait setting. Does that make sense? Tell me which cover you like and I’ll send a jpg file to you.

Maybe others here know of a good place to get free images. You can try Google Images but again, some of those are copyrighted images. Always best to use one of your own or one you have permission to use.
