Product Description

Tune your bow - be more accurate!

Most hunters agree that bowhunting is a low-percentage affair. It's crucial that you choose the right equipment and set it up properly-whether compound bow, recurve or longbow. Then, practicing good shooting form will help you dramatically increase your odds of harvesting an animal.

5.0 out of 5 stars A NEWBIE'S BEST FRIEND GOING INTO ARCHERY & BOWHUNTING, June 30, 2008

By	ROYAL COACHMAN "primitive bliss" (TEXAS USA) - See all my reviews

Starting at zero baseline of knowledge and experience and no close friends in the sport, I had to "get up to speed" myself to be able to make a sizeable investment in equipment and develop the know-how to pursue a new life adventure into archery elk hunting. This is a serious undertaking and sizeable resource commitment and nothing short of excellence would be acceptable in both the equipment and the preparation to be an ethical hunter.

I needed everything and knew nothing. Like fly-fishing, which is my passion and obsession, archery has a differnt language, different materials and requires differnt skill sets to master to be adequate enough to be able to progress in the sport. Without a mentor but a deep seated drive to excel in this sport I have been like a sponge seeking out morsels of knowledge. This book was manna.

I am still learning; I am still reading and re-reading. This book has helped me more than any other reference I have found. I will continue to use the writings in this book to help educate and prepare myself as I develop my skills for this new life adventure.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good for learning the basics, March 26, 2007

By	A. Kovacs "European-Treasures.com" (Calsbad, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I recently purchased a hunting bow. I read another book first, to cover the basics. I could have probably done that with this book as well. However, Lou goes a step further and shares his rigorous method of perfecting shooting technique as well as tuning the bow and arrows. I think I got a good theoretical foundation to reach the next level. I highly recommend this book to any beginner.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rookie or Veteran this book is a great read., September 7, 2007

By	JeepGeek56 "Larry Fee" (Farmington Hills, MI USA) - See all my reviews

I'm 51 years old and I wish I had this info about 35 years ago. Lou does a fine job of getting to the point of what makes the difference between being an average Joe bowhunter and a clean hitting one. I really found his finer tips excellent, that is what I was missing, and he dispelled many of the wives-tales about some items too. One item/tip in particular I hadn't thought about much was belt type straps verse Velcro for my release and also how to measure and set the proper release head position. Bottom line every serious and not so serious bowhunter would benefit by reading this book. I say well done to Lou for his fine and easy to read book.
