I think I shoot most like Papa Bear. I also learned a lot of the technical stuff from Mr. Asbell but I always go back and watch the old Fred Bear movies and try to copy his movements. I think they shoot in a very similar style though.

Wow! Just went and read Rob's comment. That's heavy stuff but I never thought of it that way. Thanks Rob!

Well since no one in my family shot archery, and I started to shoot when I was about 7-8 yrs old and that was way back in 57-58, as in 1957-58, I guess myself. I never had a instruction but was lucky enough to end up with good form.

If I had to pick someone, I guess it would have to be our very own moebow, since I have been watching his instructions to others closely and then checking to see if I am doing what he recommends, though most of the time I am, I still learn why it's correct, and am able to correct any imperfections in my form. Kind of like learning what I use to do naturally but now understanding it all.

Thanks Moe !

Barry Wensel was a big influence on me when I first started shooting a trad bow.  I watched him in the October Whitetails videos and I liked the way he brought his bow up as game approached and then just came back to anchor and shot.  The lack of movement mades sense to me and I still shoot that way many years later.

Some days I shoot like Tarzan, other days like Jane.

The only one that's close to famous would be Ishi.  I've had instruction in yumi, as well as aboriginal American archery.  I've noticed I don't shoot much like any of you guys, but I still hit my target.

A blend of Jimmy Blackmon, John Demmer, Steve Nicholson and my own. But I can only dream of shooting half as good as either one of them.

After trying different styles of archery and trying to blend them over a number of years, I have concluded that Rick Welch's style works best for me and I should stop trying to blend things.

Technology....the knack of arranging the world so that we don't have to experience it.

Went to Rick Welch's school, practice the way he taught me, pretty much shoot just like him. Since going to his school I have won 90 % of the 3d shoots I have been to.

I taught myself how to shoot and I'm pretty happy with the results. I never emulated anyone and will not mess with other styles. I shot 2 groundhogs today with 3 shots, good enough!

Mike Fedora was giving a shooting seminar at ETAR one time and I paused long enough to realize HE shoots just like ME.  :)

I've taken alot of my style from Mr. Asbell.
