problems with broadhead flight

<< < (4/6) > >>

ballista:
 hmm....... well, i havent seen the video-but i read the book, it sounds very similar, its more of actually aiming the arrow vs instinct correct? it sounds like a good one though, i got a good movie on boo backed bows by dean torges, he goes through alot of the broadhead designs and what not-if you ever see it, buy it, its a good one, even if you're real primitive, the knowelege of alot of this stuff that he covers is good to know, and very intresting too-thanks, jimmy

Kegan:
The video goes into form a good deal. Hill's book covers his aiming method, but doesn't really go into form. I've started to see why I miss, so I can correct it- and my consistency has gone way up.

ballista:
really? thats awesome- my consistancy is where my problem is to, bro- my first few shots are great, then the last few that are 3- 6 inches off :P it sounds like a great video though, do you know where you could buy it? there's a trad archery shop called the footed shaft in minnesota, the second biggst retail in the US, next to three rivers, but the shop isnt too big, a nice place. Im in illinois, my dad heads up there every six weeks, so they might have it- but these guys were shooting longbows correct? I was shooting a small heavily recurved bow today at my buddy's house, i didnt realize how much diferent shooting that kinda bow is! yeah, howard hill was a great archer man, i never realized how any game there were in the everglades until i read his book, a great read too. thanks, -jimmy

Kegan:
Got to 3 Rivers website and request a catalouge. It's in there, they'll send it tright to your door :). Yes, they are shooting longbows. John Shulz (the man doing the shooting and teaching in the video ) is shooting an American fiberglass backed longbow (alot like your Bear bow).

ballista:
 oh god, half the trools and strings i have is from 3 rivers! tanks man, will do for sure. I was going to buy a bow from there actually, but now i got that bear, im set. do you ever make bows with glued on risers? i know its not primitive, so maybe you dont, but i finishd the pistol gripriser today, tomarrow im going to work on the taper/tiller, 1.5 inch tapering to 3/4 inch, 64 inches long, 10 1/2 riser. im not sure how to tiller it, im guessing stiff fades, stiff tips, and alot of md limb bend... which im kinda trying to avoid. thanks, jimmy.
