Aron is joined by Cody Greenwood for an in depth look at Trad bows.  This episode holds a bounty of impressive information for those looking to pick up a Trad bow for the first time, or looking to upgrade from their current bow.
 
Bow Tests:Traditional tackle is not readily available for Archers to pick up and test locally.  My goal is to provide Archers with unbiased quality information that helps them make a well educated choice and pick a bow that fits their needs. I have chosen metrics associated with Ergonomics, Performance and Sound to highlight the compromises within each Bowyer design.  I have worked hard  to make sure my testing results are accurate and repeatable. If you see a error or flaw feel free to contact me, I will correct it. 
My goal is to continuously improving myself as an Archer, the Archery Community and our Sport.  The Trad Community  at its core is made up of selfless people that help one another.  I hope this  effort maintains that spirit and adds value.   
God Bless,
Cody Greenwood

Aron welcomes long time friend Clint Casper to the show.  Clint is a very active outdoor writer for numerous publications and blog style websites.  They talk the changes they have seen in the hunting industry and the changes that have been brought about via social media.  They talk about the pitfalls of constant interaction in those channels and the desire to maybe step away or "retire" from "the 'Gram!".  Clint also breaks down his archery setup and some key ingredients to success in the field.
