Must be the cabin fever....
Of course I (as most here) feel very fortunate to have the family they have, I was thinking that Trad wise I was fortunate in some of the gear I've got.
I'm very fortunate to have 2 of Shell's quivers, 2 Rose Oak Bows, some nice knives, a GREAT hunting partner in Voodoofire1 (and he makes some great gear as well), and a nice place to hunt.
What trad things are you thankful for?
I am thankful for its simplicity.
The internet! I spend hours and hours perusing the various trad web sites (just ask my better half!!!)
These last few days, with single-digit temps and winds that blow right through you, with the snow plowed up on the sides of the roads (in front of the mailboxes :mad: ) and coated with a sheet of ice that I can stand on, I have been grateful for the house that shelters me, the power that stayed on, pain meds for my tendonitis, Thermax longjohns and my 4W Drive. Been a bit stressful for the mailma'am lately!

Mostly for the the folks I've met through trational archery/bowhunting and those I have yet to meet. As stated on an earlier post.... I came out to Tulsa to work and have met a bunch of guys and gals that have made being away from home a bit more tolerable. Great times with great folks and memories made....."they can take my youth, my wealth and my health, but my memories are mine for eternity."

I am VERY Thankful for Pain Meds. for the arthritis on my Whole left side. Traditionally, Thankful I bought my First Shootable Recurve for Next to Nothing on eBay. I Thank ALL the Fine & Generous Folks that have either Donated or Taught ME how to Make some of My Own Tackle.
AND MAJORLY THANKFUL FOR "da Family" I have Found On This "TradGang" that I was lucky, REAL LUCKY to Stumble into, looking for Other Same-Minded Folks. THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!
There's just no possible way to list all the trad things I'm thankful for, but the two that really stand out: I'm thankful that God and Traditional archery has given me my life back after my neck problems, and I'm thankful for the friends and aquaintances I've met on this site, I came here at what was probably the lowest point in my life, my son had passed away and I was a lost sole, but from the first minute I was here I felt like I was among friends. Terry and Rob, You have created something great here a big THANK YOU to you too............Steve
