I'm lost....where is part 1? And what is it all about? Sounds intriguing ~
Choose this day whom you will serve...as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.

I enjoyed the first part... where did it go. I am finishing up a straight limb bow and enjoyed seeing others.

Also enjoyed watching John Schultz on one of those video sites talking about the Howard Hill form of shooting. Great video if you have a moment to see it.

I'm pretty sure Rob D. is repairing part one so that we can view/research it.  Apparently it reached its' max size yesterday just after I posted.

Rob...how about putting a link in your 1st post to the old thread for reference.

Thanks.

I would do it...but then it would show I edited your thread....don't want that.    :D

Any of you fellas hunt with a 64" Hill-style bow? If so, how far are you pullin'er back? Just a thought about trying one for tighter spots.

Interesting fix Rob D.....nice thinking...great save and all that good stuff!!

i "hand crafted" this thread back together.    :D  

i had saved the posts i removed from the original thread, renumbered each one so it would start with "000001", stuck them under this thread's topic post (mine), stuck back all the other posts from this thread and renumbered them sequentially to start after the last of the old numbered posts - yep, 129 changes in all!  then realized i needed to reset the topic thread post counter, and that did the trick.

but i think it worked.  had to save ALL the posts from that way cool thread!    :cool:

My Hill style BBO I built sure is a pleasure to shoot.

I got out after deer last night but didn't see anything except a fox squirrel that really didn't like the looks of me.
If I'd have had a squirrel arrow with me I'd have settled his rant. As it was after a half hour straight of his chattering, I cut a sapling that was nice and straight, trimmed the bumps and limbs, cut a nock in it and shot it at him. (left handed pinch draw) That made him leave even though it was flying sideways when it went past him.

Thanks for all the hard work Rob. I got a headache just looking at that one post.

That Texas hunt was a great one. Would love to do it again.

ROB you have achieved something really special to a lot of us - thank you!  I'm new at this HH LB thing but I'm really enjoying it thanks to you and...
AND you just showed me even ANOTHER thing - the rug (I assume w/ rubberized back)!  Why didn't I think of that?  Thanks AGAIN!
