    I want to start shooting a traditional set up. Where to start?

    From experience, I Like the Black Hunter hybrid longbow over the Samick sage style bows. It’s cheaper too. Get one in 35-45 lbs. Learn to shoot it and learn the arrow tuning process. It will be nice to have when you want to practice your shooting form(or change it) in the future too.

    .350 Legend, .257 Rob, .450 Bushmaster

    .257 Roberts is a fun cartridge to shoot. I have used it for deer and 2 generations before me have used it for deer and antelope. My kids will be using it with reduced loads. I don’t see much in the way of factory ammo for it though. Consider this if you don’t reload.

    Tikka t3x recoil

    I have t3x superlight in 7RM. 7lbs with scope, unloaded, limbsaver recoil pad. Recoil is not bad shooting off the bench. However, if I went to 300wm I would want my setup to be closer to 7.5lbs total weight.
