heh, as I'm learning to shoot this recurve bow, I reflect on how easy it is to shoot a compound
Shoot, compound bows are the toughest, most finicky things going to shoot. Give me my traditional bow any day. All I have to do is keep my form and pull to anchor, and the computer between my ears does the rest.
Easy peazy lemon squeezy!
...I think we're outnumbered.
. Plus, there's the "instant gratification" theory. Traditional archery requires more (and almost constant) practice to gain confidence in yourself to put the arrow where you're looking. If an archer is not willing to practice, or doesn't have time to practice, then a compound bow is the better choice. The learning curve isn't as long in time for compounds as it is for traditional bows. But, once you have the basics of correct form down, and the confidence in your ability to focus on a small spot, traditional archery is so simple. It's almost scary how accurate you can be by just drawing the arrow back, making anchor, picking your spot, and releasing. You can "feel" a prefect shot, and that will almost give you shivers. 
Naw, we have them right where we want them!
no, no, no. Nobody would think you were bragging...a bit full of yourself perhaps, but it's not bragging if you can do it.Poor guy. What a shame. To miss the fun; the tension of the string against your fingertips, the touch of the nock at the corner of your mouth, the whispered thump of the bow as the arrow speeds away. As for your "driving without power steering" jibe, I would rather drive the sports car myself without power steering, than sit in the passenger seat and just be along for the ride.
How do they "outshoot" a recurve? Bows are a mechanical machine designed to propel an arrow. Both do the job admirably. One does it more simply is all.
ITs the truth,if you so big into archery you'll know where to look.Im not trying to convence you of anything just stating the facts.World of knowledge on the internet put it to good use.Hope to see you at a State Meet one day,see how good we are, I shoot A Class Freestyle. Hope to see you there. Later
No, it's not "the truth", and you're not stating facts, you're stating opinion.
I don't shoot at competitions much anymore because I was always running into guys who butt into groups talking casually and start telling everyone how good they are, how bad everyone else's equipment is, and what they should do to be as good as he is. You could always tell who those guys were because the group he was in would leave en masse away from him pretty quickly.
