I like things simple. I like things that are hard and challenging. I enjoy the method as much as the outcome.
I agree with what several have said above, just because I choose to challenge myself, does not make be better or give me the right to look down upon others. Traditional should not mean elitist.
I do have some affection for the history and romance of it all, but I am not obsessed with it. I do like that most guys shooting our kinds of bows are laid back with little drama. I think we have more pure fun. I respect most of the traditional archers/bowhunters I know...even the ones I disagee with often.
I like that at a 3-D event, the guy(s) that beat me, did it because they are better than I am, and not because they have better equipment.
