I really enjoyed the book, even started making short hook static recurves after seeing the ones that the archers in the book made.

Zuma the first printing was in the 1990's and the old bow hunter was born in 1886. The book reflects a lifetime of archery around Eugene Oregon. I have only looked at the pictures this far, but there are a lot!
Erick that is a great looking bow. I really like that arrow also.
