Title: Stacy Groscup
Post by: Kevin Hansen on February 08, 2012, 11:03:00 AM
Reverend Groscup was someone whom I have always greatly admired both for his skill with a bow, and even more so for the positive message he spread to others while shooting his bow. When he passed on it was definitely a loss for us all.
I have one older instructional video of his shooting skills and remember hearing shortly after his death that there was going to be a book published that went into detail on both his life and method of shooting a bow. Did that book ever come to be? Anyone have any information? Thanks.
Rest in Peace Reverend Groscup...

Met he and his son at Denton Hill several years running and always had great conversations with them both thru the weekend.

TTT as that would be a fine tomb to have in one's library, I'm sure.

I wish that I did.  I've tried to locate his video and "possible" book on-line with no success.  I've been meaning to contact Frank Addington to see if he knows.  Perhaps you might try him.

Thanks, kestimator. If you do have any success let me know.
Is Frank a member of this site?

I'm not sure, but tuscarawasbowman is correct.

I don't think that we are supposed to provide a link if someone is not a sponsor, but if you do a web search, you will easily find his website using his name.

I sent a PM to Frank and in his response he mentioned the Golden Eagle video and a book that was published in the 90s.  He said he's not aware of a book that has been published since Mr. Groscup was called home by the Lord.

Thanks, Bill, for contacting Frank and getting the additional info.
Do you happen to know the name of the book from the 90's?
