Nate-

I would love to get a copy of Sagittarius, the ones that I've seen are just too expensive for me. Do you have a favorite?

I just bought Early Adventures of Howard Hill by Don Carson. Don Carson was a close friend of Howard Hill.  

 This is what he said sbout it, "Step back in time to the classical era of archery with a story of Howard Hill and Don Carson. Written by Don Carson Who worked for Howard at the Opa-Locka archery club in Opa-Locka Florida. The story takes place during the period of 1925-1935 and meanders through the swamps of Florida to the early years of archery in California,where Howards career skyrocketed. Read stories of chasing bobcats through the swamps and shooting alligators from a dugout canoe. 168 pages with 46 never seen before photos."

 The guy wrote this said it was pretty good, I hope so!

 Anyone else read it.

It was only $12.00 shipped.

I wanted to see if I could get "lucky" again today.

Same bow, same distance but the shooting wasn't quite as good as yesterdays..lol

Judge for your self.
