Dick, you have to do what ya gotta do, there a few things in life as simple and beautiful as watching an arrow fly. I think that is a good chunk of the reason why a form gets sloppy because we are so eager to see the fletched arc in motion.

Good on ya.

Well Dick you had me worried when I first read about your shoulder problems. My family and I would have missed your company this summer. So what if you're not Howard Hill longbow nut any more.  Much more important to be just an archery nut. The question now is, what are you going to collect next?

[Dick in Seattle]

Joe....   good to hear from you and I'm looking forward to doing some rounds with you all.     You going to be a MOses Lake?

Please don't get the idea I'm not shooting Howard Hills... I've just had to round up some that are within my new capabilities... I have three in the 35 - 40 pound range and a couple of 45's that I just haven't been able to let go of, though they're pushing it, weight wise.     In the process of trading so many bows, I just decided to try some other things and discovered the river is a little wider than I thought.   Learning new stuff is fun and that's what I'm doing, but the low range Hills aren't gathering dust.

Moses Lake is highly unlikely. Haven't shot since last year and I'm  myself going through pt for my shoulder.  Painted the house inside and out, then shoveled my 195' drive through record storms(plow broke first day). On the mend but taking it real slow...at least until my wife and daughter start pestering me about shooting( thankful for the long snow boarding season to keep them distracted).

Come on over anyway...  Heck, it's close to you and Lori and Zoe and i can go around a bit (I won't be good for too many rouds) and then you and i can spend some time on the kids range...    I can bring a 25# Wing recurve for you to break back in with  :^)

[JoeK]

So you're gonna have me shoot a 25# RIGHT(wrong)handed bow on the kids range??? I'm only 57, or do you think with your high tech bow and stacking the conditions in your favor you're gonna out shoot me? Are you a bettin man?
