[QUOTE="Don A Parsons, post: 1410525, member: 97414"] I'm going to look at a take-down long bow Gary Wolf, they have that lingering appeal in my mind,,, my friend up here named Nick builds Recurve and Long Bows. I'll see what he has on the go this year. Thanks for the post Bounty Hunter, I will check out Howard Hill,,, I'm guessing he had put some tracks on the ground in the archery world. One of my favourite reads was Al Henderson the 1977 USA Olympic coach,,, I wish I would of had the chance to meet him. It was his writings that got me into archery. Any-Who I took the plung yesterday to add a new bow to life, I'm now part of the ILF family of traditional archery, this puts me at 3 bows in total. When the new unit comes in, the Recurve Bow & arrows that I'm using right now becomes a (Loner Bow) to one of my close friends that excels with interests in this sport. So it was buckle down time at getting this bow as close to traditional archery as I can get it,,, the bow & arrows in combination. I'm not going to dial it in 100% since its the hands of the new holder to do this on thier own, of course I'll introduce them to some good folks at the range that will offer up ideas and suggestions along with my help to get them up to speed. The only thing I would ask of them is, if they up-grade into what ever archery category they choose,,, "if" they buy a bow they want,,, I hope they return the (Loner Bow) so it can go to the next person in line. That way I can bring more people into this fun & exciting sport of good times, and well with in their means since its all about keeping the funds in check,,, traditional archey offers this. I see a frugal set of soft 30 lb limbs showing up for this (Loner Bow) so they can get up to speed faster,,, of course the 35 lb'ers go in the package as they might enjoy getting the chance to find out for them selves that draw weight does make a difference. LOL. Folks that have had very little to do with stick & arrows or those that have never shot one will now get a free kick at the can, this is how I can offer up some good times that will cost me nothing. Today is archery ice fishing day up here in Western Canada, set the fishing hole trip rigs, shoot some archey and wait for the flags to pop-up. My good friend built a toasty warm ice fishing shack to stay warm in, and my shooting range is further than I can fire off those arrows. LOL. I'm going to show my friend the long shot today, both of us will see who can reach out the furthest. Life is all about good times if we choose follow its path. Western Canada Don [/QUOTE]
