Greating to all the Trad. Gang! I'm a new guy, but been shooting traditional for about 20 years. Anyhow, I have before me a little booklet title: My Method of shooting A Bow and Arrow by Howard Hill. It has Howard on the cover knealing and at full draw. The booklet says on the bottom of the cover: Booklet No. 1 Published by Instinctors, Inc. Apparently this was a club that ask Howard to write down his method of shooting. Has anyone else ever seen such a booklet? Since I'm new, I don't know yet how to post pictures, but as soon as I can figure it out, I will.

The Instinctors, Inc. was established in 1951 to promote field archery and the instinctive way of shooting. They published the Hill booklet as #1 in a series labeled “Archery techniques by world-famous archers.” The Hill pamphlet came out in 1952. Jerry Hill has/had it available in a reprint.
