I would buy some tickets. Good idea. [/b]
That is not a good idea, that is a   GREAT idea. I will make sure Gene sees that and passes it on to John.

Lord bless my family and please give me a fighten chance at one of those bows. Just practicing my nightly prayer until they are all gone. Now how does one approach the Bank for a loan for a bow?

I'ed like one in the 62 # range...that is if I could afford one. Guess I'ed better start saving if I want to add a John Shultz longbow to my bowrack.  By the way Gene, that was a great idea you had to preserve Mr. Shultz's master bow-building skills not to mention preserve a critical link to our traditional bowhunting legacy.

Gene,

It would be nice if the rest of us could at least see these bows as they come to completion.  Perhaps a photo file of John's last twelve?

I had heard John was living in Missouri prior to Montana, is that correct?  Could you write an article based on this conversation/interview with him?  That would be nice; many would love to hear this insight, if not too personal or other.

Thanks for posting...

Kris

What he could do for the masses would be to republish "Straight Shooting" and the DVD "Hitting em like Howard Hill".  The DVD exists on Youtube, but the audio/video quality is so poor compared to the original, and "Straight Shooting" is a book many will read repeatedly.

I can completey agree with Mr Green above. The video on youtube is next to useless when it comes to detail.  I would happily part with 20 dollars for a decent DVD.

I have not had the pleasure of reading his book, but like most trad archer's have quite a book collection. No doubt his book would join it. He would not be wasting his time republishing that. Although I guess it is not so easy to make happen, for a niche area as archery.

Great idea...

Gene with your experience in getting published and your contacts perhaps you could steer or assist John in this..

I have tried to find his book in the aftermarket and have been unsuccessful. His used bows just may be easier to find.
John Schulz's teaching ability is at least(or more) as valuable as his bows and I would love to see a reprint of his book. I have watched his video many times to refresh.
Thanks to all those putting their energy into this project.

I know that Nate Steen was in talks with John several months ago about re-releasing the DVD, and it was reported that this was going to happen, but I think John chose this course instead.
