I love it when a re-enactor is able to time travel and do it the old way! Paul why do you think Robin needed Marion? To help find his deer!

Paul, nice shooting on that doe.

I'd love to try an ELB sometime. Maybe if you have some time this summer, I could travel over to South Lyons and take a look at yours?

I know self bows should probably not be shot by other than the owner, but how are they for hand shock? I'm shooting a couple of lightly r/d longbows - a Mohawk and a Border Griffon that string up as "D" bows with no problems. That's a long way from an ELB, I suspect.

Wow!  That's great!  That's doing it the hard way.  Hats off to you.  Osage orange, really nice bow, too.
