Thanks for the interest and support of Longbow: A Hunting Life! Yesterday we ranked #15 on Amazon of all Archery books!   :clapper:    Amazon or  www.campbellsquest.com  or 3 Rivers are good places to find the book. At  www.campbellsquest.com  its on sale for $14.99 and Karen and I sign and endorse all the copies. Dan Small at Wisconsin Outdoor News just wrote a great review for their Holiday book buying guide, in part: "This book will will touch any hunter's heart. Buy it and read it." There's another great review in this month's Traditional Bowhunter Magazine, too. I saw a question about How Karen handles a 70# bow - the picture may help answer that. :-) Karen is a 3d degree black belt in Shotokon. When she decided to build up to a bow big enough to take buffalo, she began shooting 150-200 arrows a day, building up from a 35# bow to the 70# in a little more than a year. She became the only woman we are aware of to take a water buffalo with a longbow. That journey is in the book in "Prescription: Buffalo", as are many others. Best, Jay
The how and why of hunting is more important than the what, or the where, or with whom. In hunting - as in life - the joy is in the journey.

Just finished my copy....

Pros...Very well written...easy to read...interesting....heart felt....down to earth..

Cons....because the stories are so well written and easy to read...you may pour through the book and be finished in no time...leaving you dissappointed that the "ride" is over too quickly  :)  LOL!!!  All books should leave you feeling like that!

BTW...I'm not a big fiction reader...but the first chapter of your pending novel has me hooked!!  Please finish and publish that booger!  :)
Have a nice day!
