Cool...really cool.

I have the DVD I think, or VHS, heck, its been so long since I've seen it I can't remember.  But I really enjoyed it back then and watched it more than once.

Great to hear about the Dashing Dozen.    :campfire:

Man I would love to have another copy of "Hitting em like Howard Hill". Loaned my copy many years ago and it never came home. I watched it over and over. One of my favorites.

Well, it is nice there will be a few more bows built but kind of a croc they will be anything but unattainable.

It would be nice if he offered up one lefty and one righty at a set price to be offered to a buyer by lottery draw.

Let's say he sets the price at 1,500.00. Those who put their names in get drawn. If you don't pay in X number of days, it's offered to the next draw.

That way at least folks like me might be able to scrape up the funds to have a hope of owning one. Even $1500 would be a push for me but if given the chance, I'd get it somehow. Otherwise, only those financially able will get these bows. I can only imagine what they'll go for.

That way you would not have to have deep pockets to possibly own one.  It would be a long shot.  Just a thought.
That is an idea with alot of merit! Don't know if it could be done, but I bet it would get an incredible response.

Just like my David miller split bamboo. But then Dave learned from John . I wonder if they shoot the same and have the same feel ?  Wouldn't  mine having one though . Dave's shoot great.

Good for him. They look like nice bows. I'm all for capitalism, so I hope he makes a killing and helps fund a comfy retirement.

I spoke to John again the other day concerning his Parting Shot bows. He said the first ones should go on the auction block next week at the latest. Check his website for updated info as soon as it becomes available. Should be within a week. I did find out that they will NOT all be 66" but only patterned after Howard's favorite 66 incher. One will be 60". The two left handed ones will be 64" and 62". He is very pleased with his efforts so far. The man still has it!

Judging from the pictures, the four look a good as ever, and amazing bows to shoot.   :campfire:
