Compound.

One of these years I am going to scrap the wheels and go trad for the rest of my life. I haven't gotten to that point yet but I know its coming. I am increasingly disillusioned with bells and whistles.

Still hunt with my Fred Bear Lights Out I got about 5 years ago when I finally got into bow hunting.

I am with you. Last few weeks I have been drooling over some of the DIY threads on building longbows/Muzzleloaders. I think I am going to buy a cheap stick bow to get into it and a muzzleloader kit gun next summer. Also going to build one of those DIY sling type tree stands. I am getting to the point I just want to go out in my plaid shirt, with a tree stand I made with my own two hands, a primitive weapon and battle wits vs instinct the old fashioned way...
No Shortcuts. No Excuses. No Regrets.
Everybody's selling dreams. I'm too cheap to buy one.
