Post by: SHOOTO8S on April 28, 2006, 03:13:00 AM: Double Creek....I think you can...right click and save target as to your hard drive....then use the slider st the bottom, to move frame by frame.

Huntschool....yep, the bow is O.L.'s target longbow...the Apogee

I use these shot clips to study and find what I'm may be doing wrong...and I can normally find a bug or two! I'd highly recommend to any who is striving to improve their shooting, to video yourself.

Post by: swampbuck on April 28, 2006, 11:28:00 AM: Thanks Rod!!

Actually I was told by OL that it's not a Hoyt riser,I thought the same thing myself LOL
Title: Re: Rod Jenkins Form Video Version 2....
Post by: O.L. Adcock on April 28, 2006, 06:11:00 PM: Nope, not a "Hoyt" riser. I used a belly brace concept Norb Mulaney used in the 1960's, I don't know who Hoyt copied theirs from. :) ....O.L.

Post by: JC on April 28, 2006, 09:57:00 PM: O.L., I know I'm asking the question that's been asked a thousand times....but when will bows be available? Seems such a shame that there are so many touting your work as the best ever and a regular feller feels like he will never be able to shoot one.....

Post by: O.L. Adcock on April 29, 2006, 11:45:00 AM: JC, the A&H side is working hard to get "stock" bows available but still can't build them fast enough to meet the demand. 3 piece bows will be available first, then the Apogee, lastly the 1 piece bows. "gearing up" to build 1000 bows a year is not easy nor cheap! :) As for me, not taking any custom orders nor do I expect to any time soon......O.L.

Post by: JC on May 01, 2006, 08:50:00 AM: Good luck OL....1000 per year is quite the undertaking.
Title: Re: Rod Jenkins Form Video Version 2....
Post by: Huntschool on May 01, 2006, 02:01:00 PM: Rod, OL, JC:

Thanks all for the info.... I guess I looked kinda stupid on that one.

OL What a bow!!!!!

Post by: Double Creek on May 22, 2006, 05:36:00 PM: Not only did I get to witness that form first hand this weekend, I got to shoot THAT bow!!!!! Talk about sweet!! Makes my wait even tougher!!

Rod and Trish were great and VERY giving of their time and experience!!
Title: Re: Rod Jenkins Form Video Version 2....
Post by: O.L. Adcock on May 22, 2006, 11:13:00 PM: Rod and Trish are something ain't they! :) ....O.L.
Title: Re: Rod Jenkins Form Video Version 2....
Post by: Double Creek on May 22, 2006, 11:18:00 PM: They sure are O.L. I look forward to shooting with them again in the future.... Those ol' broom handles they shoot aren't bad either :smileystooges:

Post by: Alsea on June 11, 2006, 10:58:00 PM: Didn't Martin used to make a braced riser before Hoyt did?
Title: Re: Rod Jenkins Form Video Version 2....
Post by: Dalebow on June 12, 2006, 07:31:00 AM: Anybody got Rod's email address? His strings are awesome
Thanks

Post by: O.L. Adcock on June 12, 2006, 12:57:00 PM: Alsea, Don't know about Martin but I've got photos of belly braced risers built by Norb Mulaney in the 1960's. Other then being ugly they do good things for a bow. :) ...O.L.
