Introduction

This will be the first of many posts as I delve into the world of instinctive archery. I started shooting a recurve bow in December of 2014 and was gung-ho for a few months. I was also in the middle of a massive weight loss (around 80 pounds since September 2014) and archery took a backseat to that/life/job until May when I stumbled upon a Bear Kodiak Magnum compound bow in a thrift store. I learned that these bows could be converted into traditional bows and the interest in archery was rekindled. I sent that riser off to someone to covert it to take ILF (international limb fitting) limbs, which means that the same riser can be used with many sets of limbs to adjust poundage and the length of the limbs. Since then, I've been shooting nearly everyday and trying to remember everything I forgot about traditional/instinctive archery. I have many topics I'd like to talk about from my experience with instinctive archery so far and have many posts planned. I'll try to pace myself and make this blog as interesting as possible (if that's possible). I'll try to come up with a creative sign off, but for now, I'll just end this right here.
