Just picked this Shultz Old Favorite up a couple of weeks ago, it's a string follow natural Hill, Bamboo backed Yew, can't get more classic than that !!!
I am impressed to how well this bow shoots and it doesn't seem to mind heavy arrows. She is 70@27 but you wouldn't know it by drawing it. I scaled her and she is true to her words.
I sharpened up some Ribteks, mounted them on my purple heart footed Spruce woodies and I am ready for the hunt tomorrow.
You just have to admire the oldies but goodies !!!

Cool gear!

Beautiful setup....looks classically traditional

Very Nice! Good luck Hunting.

There is a place for every bow, this one wasn't heavy enough for me so I traded it for one I could make heavy enough, a "Sirooco" I shortened to 63"s and it came alive for me at my short draw of 25" and she pulls 65#s and shoots carbons, woods and aluminum in the same spot out beyond 30 yards, tight groups 2 and 1/2 inches or less. Thanks Pete hope you have great success! Later Jacques

Thanks Jacques equal luck to us both

Awesome looking set up!

A back quiver and you're ready to head out to Sherwood to bring home some stag.

God bless,Mudd

I noticed that limb profile in an old pic of Howard shooting . See how stiff it is toward the fades and how it bends in the outer third. For its composition and string follow design that should make for a relatively fast bow with a quick limb return. That profile is what I used to base the design of my string follow. What a find Peter.  That sir is a real keeper.
God bless you , Steve

Nice bow!

Steve I would love to see that picture of Howard.

Peter , I don't know where I saw it at. I am thinking in one of the StickBows where there is a story about Florida yew or some such wood I have never heard of/ It is in the back of the mag. I will see if I can find it.

God bless, Steve

Great looking setup!

Man oh man, what devil this thing called Envy!

is that the original string?  sure looks like the ones on my naturals.
