This thread has been up for quite a while and you're the only one who took it in an off direction.
You titled the thread "Who's hunting primitive, wood and wood?"

How does this information assist with answering that question?

I just finished rereading a copy of primitive archer while out camping and an article about what is real bow hunting. It was very clear that using a compound bow was not bow hunting, and they were lumped in with crossbows. The article even went so far as to state that they should have their own record book, and not be considered bow kills, but archery kills, using an arrow. To be a bow hunter that bow needed to be a recurve or long bow, and drawn with a single string. They also separated traditional and primitive, and varying degrees of each.

Oh and to answer the question, I hunt with both compound and trad.
