Nice catch on Howard's fingers, Lambow.  That's exactly what I was talking about.  Studying photos of him can reveal a lot about his technique.

Charlie, I love the shots of you with the Bobwhites (great shooting   :thumbsup:   ) and the bull elk.  And just out of curiosity, what type of broadhead did you shoot that hog with?  Man, that's some blood.

And FalseCast, here's a shot of my one and only longbow harvest to date.  Fortunately, it was my one and only longbow shot at game as well.  Batting a thousand so far.  I'm sure that won't last, but I hope to put a few more cottontails on the table this fall.  That little all yew longbow was built in 1976 and has a lot of years left in it.

Two4hooking... That's a picture of an old friend of mine, Russ Ecklund. We were on a backpack hunt high  in the Wyoming Rockies. We were young and tough and packed out the quarters on our backs. Five miles of hell even then.

Russ passed on several years ago. I miss him and the many good times we shared with bow in hand.

Charlie,
Man-oh-man I really like the jacket!!!! Is that some kind of "ace in the hole" hanging from your bow in the pic with the buck?

Blaino.... I loved that jacket as well. It was marketed by the Kittredge Bow Hut as their Bowhunters jacket. I forget who made it. I gifted it to Terry Green several years ago. I outgrew it finally.

The thing on the bow is a single arrow "keeper" that I made. I never used it much. Pretty simple to make from just about any leather.

Nice pictures Mr. Lamb, thanks for sharing those with us. What year was that picture taken with the steel wheeled manure spreader in the back ground? That's a great photo, and no dought a memorable day.

Hey Ben.  Glad to see you are knocking those rabbits dead over in Oz.  I know they are a problem there, but they do make for some fine eating.  Where was the photo with all the snow taken?  Beautiful landscape there.

What can anyone tell me about the HH Bobcat?  Is it a youth bow? The one I have looked at is a 60" model, looks like 3 lams of boo.  Any info appreciated.
