I've never persued any memberships of any kind as I have met 3 people in 30 years of shooting that hunt with a trad bow. I always figured I'm alone on an island.

I made it to RMS gear this year thanks to a work trip putting me a few minutes away. I never travel for shoots and such as they always seem to be during some important season.

I may have to do a better job of opening my eyes.
You would be surprised how many people shoot trad if you went to some of the shoots out East

Long-time off/on member. Been to quite a few of the rendezvous over the years, planning on the last MI gathering this June. Joined up originally at the beginning as a noob to traditional bows, saw the announcements in TBM if I remember correctly. Great organization.

Member as well, besides the magazine I just love my trad bows so I figured why wouldn’t I be a member. I even won a longbow from Dave Darling, it’s definitely a special community. You can talk to any of the guys at the shows like you’ve known them forever
This is so true. A great group of people in our sport and organization!

The trad world is much bigger than you think. It's just that us bowhunter are solitary creatures and have never been "joiners" as a whole. Comptons would be a great way to see how big the family actually is. We are here if you ever get the notion to join an organization. And if not, no worries.
