For those that have recieved the book, how's it look?

I have been looking over my copy but haven't had time to read much.

wingnut, I just received my copy Saturday. I've read a couple of chapters and perused the rest. I'll get to the other chapters. I tend to take my time and savor the writing. Its excellent.  Great job. It is amazing how quickly the project came together. Jawge

Great job to all!!

Now I gotta get the time to start back at the beginning and REALLY read it!  :)

A signed copy from Jim Hamm showed up the other day. After a quick look, I can say that it's put together in the same top quality format as previous volumes. I'm betting the substance inside is as high a quality or better.

Noticed a lot of my friend's names on the table of contents. Really looking forward to getting into this one.

TBB 4 is widely available now from the regular sources. Hope you guys learn as much from reading it as we all did putting it together. Comments welcome, as always....

I am still working on the part to get it accross the pond.
I am a somewhat hypocritical reader and my many books are full of pencil marks and writings. But if No.4 is as good as the former 3 were, then all should be fine   ;)

I obtained my copy from 3Rivers Archery. they are a sponsor here. Probably some of the other sponsors have it also. Looks like a lot of good reading. I enjoyed Mickey Lotz's section on arrows and Mike Hamm's article on target archery. Some good insights on how to make good shots under pressure. Enjoy worth the money in my opinion.

Just recieved mine tonight, the first thing that jumped right out at me were those arrows on the cover. I won an arrow, from the Ferret, in the clout shoot at last years Ojam and it is identical to the arrows on the cover!  :bigsmyl:
Looking through the authors, it seems like writings from old friends. I do know a couple of them, but after reading the previous books and numerous magazine articals, it seems I know most of the authors. I am looking forward to using vol. 4 in many new indeavors. A quick glance at the section on bow woods tells me that there are alot of bows to be made and so little time....Terry

I sent an PM to help with getting you a copy.

We just got a case of books in so we will have limited supply.
