The DOUBLE Robin Hood
« on: August 17, 2012, 07:09:00 AM »
I haven't seen this before, but if you check out Dan Toelke of Toelke Traditional Archery or Montana Bows, a Sponsor here, He did it!
With an 18oz. bow. The Whip, I believe.
It's quite a picture/feat.

Dan knows a little bit about shooting!
I had such a nice conversation with him over the phone when I ordered my Chinook. He was so giving of his knowledge, and willing to help with shooting tips. He is truly a lover of the sport and eager to share his enthusiasm and wisdom. Can't say enough good about him and his bows.

And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

I've always said one robin hood is nothing more than a fluke.  you could train a monkey to shoot a bow and eventually it would get a robin hood. I've seen folks get robin hoods who could only shoot about 16 inch groups and they think they "acomplished" someting. Nothing wrong with luck but I'd rather be good than lucky.

 Shooting 2 in a row is skill there's no doubt about that.

I've seen pics of it done before with wheel bows but not with trad tackle.  Great Shooting!!!

Dans one of those guys that you can tell him what problems your having with your shooting and he can usually tell you a fix quickly.

Very impressive!!
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

I got one in 1999

I will look for the picture!  Expensive shooting.   34 yards- longest shot I could make in my back yard at the time prepping for an elk hunt
