Editorial By Arlyne Rhode Summer is half done and we have many champions worldwide. The IFAA shooters went to New Zealand in April, FITA archers go to Austria in August, and the 3-D archers seem to have many events in every state and nation. While the junior archers in IFAA, NFAA and 3-D participate with the adults, FITA and NAA junior archers have their own events. NAA Junior Nationals will be held in July and the Junior World later in July in Sweden. Is this exciting for the young people, parents and coaches to travel and participate! Complete coverage of these events and the remaining Nationals will be in the September-October issue. I will be attending the NFAA Nationals in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota the last week in July and the NAA Nationals the next week. I'm sure there will be some fine scores shot. Already, we have started receiving dates for next year’s events. Of special interest for 1999 is the following: January 15-17 Indy ShootOut and Bowhunting Expo visits Louisville, KY March 19-21 Las Vegas Championships and National Archery Show

Stick to the Eacts... IclCt! Reducing recoil and vibration in your bow will enable you Io shoot tighter groups. Your bow will be quieter and faster and you will experience less

shooting fatigue and joint stress when recoil and vibration ore reduced.

IclCt! Adding a shock-absorbing bow stabilizer is the easiest, fastest, most cost effective thing that you can do to reduce recoil and vibration in your bow.

NFAA Indoor Championships and Archery Show Atlantic City Archery Classic and Show

In 1985 an indoor championship and show was held in Horsham Australia under the direction of Kevin Matuschka with sponsorship from Allis Chambers International. This event, the first of its kind, was an outstanding success. Recently I received a call from Kevin and he wants to promote an international 3-D event. We will be working with him and will keep you posted on the progress. Kevin’s e-mail address is kevmat@netconnect.com.au if you want to contact him directly. As he said in his e-mail to me, “Basically to float a few ideas round and look at the feasibility of doing something worldwide to give the sport a lift here again downunder. In our Scoreboard section we have the first coverage of a well run mail match. ‘98 Continental Indoor Championships for North America conducted by Pascal Colmaire. He did an outstanding job coordinating 1223 competitors. Thanks to everyone who keeps us informed about world happenings. We couldn’t have this publication without you. Please give a warm welcome to our new reporter, Rhonda Campbell, when you see her at the 3-D Championships. This issue carries two of her IBO articles. Rhonda and her husband. Glenn. live in Lincoln Park, Michigan. They became interested in archery in the late 1980’s. In the early 1990’s she went back to college to finish her degree in Graphic Design. They hunt and fish together also. Glenn is the one into tournament shooting and instructing archery up until now but watch out, Rhonda has ordered a bow.

Maori people with Loet Smit (far right) at opening ceremonies

“Romancing the Fern” The 1998 IFAA World Archery Championships By Skip Trafford At first glance it seemed that we had the upper hand. We had them virtually surrounded and outnumbered by at least 300 to 50. All of us were seasoned archers and our opponents had nothing but spears and clubs. You could cut the air with a knife as our leader slowly stepped forward. He was a giant of a man among us standing over 6’7” and some 300 pounds. A skilled man with a longbow, he moved quietly forward as his opponent — a full head shorter though as thick in the chest as Loet — spun his spear menacingly about him all the while uttering the Maori"s battle chant. Both warriors stepped up to each other as the Maori began the Haka: the dreaded battle dance. I could see Loet’s face from my position and I could summon no strength whatsoever from the worried look on my leaders’ countenance. The warrior’s tribe stood behind him and opposite us as the moment of truth drew near: would they/ we fight or...The Maori suddenly reached behind his loincloth and pulled out a — yes, it was a tree branch, possibly an offering of peace. He flicked it at Loet’s feet and backed away all the while spinning and thrusting his spear and uttering a fierce Maori challenge to all within sight and sound. An eternity occurred as the two men 220

A Close Shavey

from Skip Trafford The Champions of Nations competition turned out to be too close to call at the conclusion of shooting on the final day. The “Yanks” came out strong the first day of competition with a solid lead over Australia and host New Zealand and looked early on as the runaway favorite to remain undefeated in competition for the C of N at world competition. But eerily resembling sailing's America’s Cup competition, the Australians came roaring back with the Kiwi's close behind during mid-week to make it a close match. I was the only Yank staying at a hotel that was fraught with green and yellow blazers, sweats and “Giday Mates". As if having the same first name as the revered Australian film star "Skippy the kangaroo” wasn't enough, almost everywhere I turned during midweek, I was met by an Aussie who noted that the USA was losing ground on a daily basis, all the while singing the kangaroo’s theme song. At one point just after the final competition. Australia’s “super star" and AMFSC gold medalist

'.Y-AUGUST 1998

Randall Wellings taunted me/us — all in fun of course — for letting the waltzing Matilda’s slip in the back door and seizing the moment. Although Chuck Crowell and I were trying to figure out who won — it's a fairly complicated scoring system best served best by an on line computer mainframe — it was so close that we still couldn't be sure of our calculations until the award ceremony the next day. When the speaker ceremoniously announced that Australia had won the silver medal, virtually all of the U.S. team cheered the Aussies on — all meant in fun of course — with a resounding “Aussie Aussie Aussie ... Baaa”, knowing finally that the USA had again clinched the Gold medal and preserved its unbeaten record.

An “Almaighty” Chance "Goon Alma, put your name on the S10 and take a chance; it’s for a good cause" said Alma Kudlacek’s friends as she pondered whether or not to throw her $10 in with everybody else’s $5 in the middle of the pot. It was indeed for a good cause as half the winnings would go to the drawn

bill’s signature and the other half to the tournament's sponsor — the generous Lion Foundation's favorite charity. The speaker had just asked everyone at the banquet to take out a bill — any bill — and write your name and table number on it and throw it into the pot circulating from table to table. If your name was consequently called from the bill that was picked, you won half the pot. When Alma followed her table's advice that night, she was some $450.00 richer and every bit a winner as the medalists who received their awards the next day and the young kids that received that donation.... *

Here you would see trees and jungle clash as mighty trees competed with palm trees and huge fems for soil and sunlight. The Kiwi's “logo" — the silver fern — was a common sight as we winded through and shot among the streams and hiking (called tramping here), jogging and bridal paths.

The clash between the forces of mother nature and archers had more than one humorous convergence due to the slippery clay-like walking conditions that prevailed throughout the tournament after the cyclone dumped more than enough rain during the first day. On one occasion.

for a good place to call it quits. 1 laughed and had to let down because all I could think of was Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner “slipsliding" down the mountain in "Romancing the Stone”. I could now shift this article to the competition itself but the tally sheet that follows should do more justice — division by division — as a stand alone than all the exciting verbiage I can muster from this humble laptop. Besides, you know the shooting drills anyway: some led from start to finish, some led only to lose their lead but came back in triumph in the end, others never got it together and still others led most of the way but faded in the end. Besides, the tournament was so magnificent and well run that it would be an injustice to attempt to equate the scores and shooting with what the Good Lord created for us that Easter week downunder during those five wonderful days of competition. So let the following scores speak for themselves! And if, after reading this article or hearing about it from one who was there, you find yourself wishing you had been downunder during this past April enjoying the competition and friendship, take heart. In the next Millennium — the Year 2000 — we will again find ourselves under the Southern Cross with our dear friends from South Africa carrying the torch. And in the spirit of all world competitions being a bit better than the previous one. I’m betting that branch of peace that Loet picked up during the Maori challenge in New Zealand is offered — South Africa style — to all those who take the challenge and again meet under the covenant of competition and friendship in 2000. * THE U.S. and INTERNATIONAL ARCHER

Shooting the IFAA World’s in New Zealand was a dream come true. 1 was both humbled and privileged by attending and representing Canada. It was a marvelous experience emotionally, physically and mentally. The five courses of what was called. “Rolling Hills,” were the most grueling physical challenge I've put my body through in quite some time. I thought I had left Canada fit. but was soon to find out what becoming an “Iron Woman" must be like. The first day we shot in winds that were to become a cyclone that ended out at sea. The second day we had a downpour making treacherous mud. slippery fence styles to climb and targets difficult to see. Luckily, we had been adopted by some Australian archers who moved us from our expensive distant hotel to theirs. We traveled to and fro the venue with them.

Heather Whittier... continued from page 226 This helped us immensely as we mutually supported each other and shared humor and daily experiences. There were very few easy shots and my scores were discouraging because I had been used to much belter. 1 was holding first place and maintaining and increasing the distance in scores between myself and my main competition but wasn't satisfied with my shooting. The rain, mud and shooting had given me a painful muscle spasm in my back that didn’t dissipate with a hot shower and sleep. The third day my back began to rebel and I spent the day trying to ignore pinched nerves with each shot. The masseur cured me but was a day too late. There was lots to learn. I shoot in a hide jerkin and this outfit along with our uniform, took many compliments. 1 had been made to feel like part of an Australian group and so I tried my best to do the same for other archers speaking foreign languages. This had us sharing smiles, thumbs up and helped to create a global camaraderie I was sad to see end with the awards ceremony. My husband. Carl, had sent a huge basket of fruit to our hotel to greet us after our first day. Knowing you are loved and supported from afar dissipates many self doubts. This was a marvelously touching gesture. The planned social events for the competitors were ideal ways to meet and greet, swap shirts, crests and pins, and, feed this addiction called Archery. “When will we meet again? Will you try and make this shoot?” After having a good day on the course. I came in to find my room and teammate

had taken a World Record. How proud we were of Linda Tripney. What an incredible feat! Both of us had earned Gold for ourselves and Canada. We had come a long way to realize our dreams. What started out to be a long, difficult, challenging shoot, ended up being an incredible emotional experience creating memories to last a lifetime. While unable to sleep the last night, I composed the following poem which I gave to Trevor Irvine who coordinated these New Zealand Championships.

The ranges in New Zealand were named after the local archery clubs who did the

work of installing the targets, shooting stakes, and clearing obstacles such as brush or tree limbs. I'm still wondering how those guys got the target butts to some of the more remote areas. The ranges were a combination of bush (jungle) and open pasture-type areas and included lots of hills. They were definitely some of the most challenging ranges I have shot (after hiking about 1/2 mile uphill to the first target on the first day. I heard Carolyn Elder say that she never wanted to hear anyone complain about having to walk up to the Coyote or Bobcat ranges at Darrington again!). I had a lot of fun shooting with people from around the world and made several new friends. The hospitality of the New Zealanders was very impressive and I was even fortunate enough to get a chance to go hunting one afternooon for Spanish goats. All I had with me was my target bow and arrows but Kevin Watson, a local New Zealander who arranged the hunting trip, let me borrow a hunting bow, arrows, and broadheads. I didn’t shoot anything, but saw quite a few goats and had a great time (I did learn that Spanish goats have pretty good noses!). *

“My second IFAA Championship abroad was again a great experience — well worth the time and effort to get there. Good organization by the New Zealand FAA, good weather, marvelous accommodation, and a close and demanding week’s shooting meant I had a memorable time. These IFAA events are enjoyable occasions. “ “Hope to see you in South Africa in

Archers Who Care By Jim Schultz 16144 E. Palisades Blvd. • Fountain Hills, AZ 85268 USA • Phone (602)837-3119

Summer Camps are in full swing In this issue we have a note and some photos from Johnny Stewart. John's the president of the Mountain Traditional Archers of Coker Creek. Tennessee, and the cancer camp that they have been involved with for the last three years is called Eagles Nest. We hope you enjoy his note and photos. Here in Arizona we just completed a camp for the American Lung Association and everyone had a great time. The kids were fun. the weather was great and we even found time to do a little fishing. On Sunday we leave to go teach a Diabetes camp followed up the next week with a Burn camp. The Burn camp is put on by the Phoenix Fire Department along with Fire Departments from all over Arizona. I've been told that there will be HO children there. Don't let anyone kid you. the Bum camp is a tough one. Our hearts really do go out to the Firefighters and the children.

Hope you enjoy all of the photos. Until the next issue, Remember ... aim towards the target! In from Tennessee ... (Photos on page 237) For the second year. Mountain Traditional Archery of Coker Creek of Tennessee participated in the Archers Who Care program held in conjunction with East Tennessee Children's Hospital in Knoxville, TN. The members who partook were: Johnny Stewart, Wayne Wilson, Brad Keasler, Ray Brannon, Ronny Jones,

Donnie Abbott and Burl Keasler. A total of sixty children participated in this year's event. Ages ranged from six to eighteen. The weather has been wet, cloudy and gnats in abundance. The children had enthusiasm throughout it all. We presented the children with T-shirts sponsored by Johnson & Galyon of Knoxville. This event has been made possible by Archer's Who Care, together with many other sponsors. To see their children in varying stages of illness take part in archery is worth everything. Many of the children were physically impaired. Some without use of one arm or wheelchair bound. This did not however dampen their enthusiasm for archery. Every child, regardless ofage. size or medical handicaps participated. The staff of Eagle Nest were great to work with. They were very helpful as was the staff from Children's Hospital. It's a blessing to see care like this given to anyone, but especially to children. We were excited when we were asked to come back this year. I hope we can come back next year. Our prayers go out to these children andfor those who work with them everyday. A Iso a special thanks to A rcher's Who Care and for all the people, companies and archery clubs who have helped to make this special event possible. Johnny Howard Stewart President.

3D Marked Nationals • Redding Western Classic Trail Shoot

NFAA 3-D Marked Nationals Redding, California • May 1-3,1998 Photos and Story by Arlyne Rhode

The lush green hills and valleys of Shasta Valley outside of Redding, California was again the site of the NFAA Marked 3-D Nationals. Competition excitement was at an all time high because many of the competitors had shot the IFAA New Zealand World Field Championships just a month earlier. As reported on pages 220-232 our U.S. Archery Team did a great job winning the Gold in the Champion of Nations and many individual gold, silver, and bronze medals. These 3-D Marked Nationals are more sociable than any other NFAA event held during the year. It is not uncommon to have more than 20 archers, adults and youth, in your group. During the 10 plus hours you spend in the field you can experience lots of sunshine and possibly rain. Big orange spots mark the high score on animals made by Critter Factory set at distances up to 101 yards at Bigfoot. If you and your friends missed this year, mark your calendars for May I -2 next year. Oregonian Russ Weatherbee slipped by Californian Tommy Daley to have high score (1531) in the men's pro class and win his second NFAA Marked 3-D Championship. Arizona’s Michelle Ragsdale repeated as the lady pro champion with a score of 1517. Susan Thompson also repeated her silver medal win with 1508. We always expect the pros to shoot well but a shoot off performance was put on by Linda Owen and Debbie Lane in the freestyle amateur division who tied at 1509. Nice score but it took a shoot off to send Linda home with the gold. The freestyle amateur men had 33 men scoring over 1500 points. This had to be the Bigfoot fight for the weekend. Even 1996 Olympic Team Gold Medalist Richard “Butch" Johnson was armed with his compound to do battle for this title. After all arrows had been whipped through the air for the weekend Dave Cousins came out top gladiator at 1529. Logan Wilde of the Wilde clan came in at 1528 and Connecticut's Chris Destin took home the bronze at 1525. Archers from the west coast to the east coast came to roam these hills where Bigfoot is known to roam. Tom Micoch, Past President of Straight Arrow Bowhunters, Inc., submitted the following information. Our Bigfoot (Sasquatus Swasius) is both a replica and a tribute to the actual creature of the Pacific Northwest JULY-AUGUST 1998

Wilderness, an Indian Mythical Giant who still roams the forests today. Bigfoot canyon is so named because it marks the most eastward sighting ever observed in the Cascade Mountain Range and last took place on a night in May of 1985. shortly after 2 a.m. as some tired archers were headed home after a grueling day. California sunshine. Straight Arrow Bowhunters and Cardoza Creations made this a special way to open the NFAA Outdoor season. NFAA President Chuck Crowell. Vice President Wally Rueger and Executive Secretary Marihelen Rogers spent many hours behind the scenes to make the NFAA Tournament one of the best for the season. Thanks to almost 500 archers this was the best attended Marked 3-D Nationals. See you next year. Same weekend. same hills and valleys. Some master freestylers who deserve honorable mention are Rich McClintock. Ed Parks and Franks Pearson who all scored over 1500 points for the three days. On the bottom of the age scale we had some very nice scores lopping the 1500 mark. Young adult freestyle gentleman was Sep Piper at 1525 and Nick Risinger silver medalist and Jesse Grace shot 1519 and 1509. respectively. * See scores on page 244

NFAA 3-D Unmarked Nationals and Archery Festival Photos and Story By Arlyne Rhode

Archery is family fun

Sonny Glisson announcing action and winners at the Festival

Shirley and Van Swindall have been shooting NFAA events for 35 years

Our second stop on the outdoor NFAA National circuit was Strasburg, IL. on May 22-24, 1998. Friday night of the tournament, wind and heavy rains flattened the exhibitors’ tent and soaking the ranges surrounding the headquarters park. Saturday was a beautiful sunny day so many shot the complete tournament of 50 targets in one day. Sunday, clouds moved in and out giving just a few sprinkles. Mild temperatures made it a fine weekend of shooting. Just under 300 archers competed in the 3-D Unmarked part of the championship. Also available for competition over the three days was a 900 Round, a Robinhood Round, a field round a Lake of the Woods Round and 3-D Pop-Up targets. As we move to the Midwest from the West Coast so do the champions.

The men’s freestyle class looks like a list of “Who's Who of 3-D Champions.’’ We had competitors from Florida to Washington. Ken Likins topped the list with a 554 for the pro men followed by Johnny Heath and Jack Wallace at 550 and 554, respectively. Joella Presson topped the ladies’ division with 499 over Connie Calloway and Susan Thompson tied at 497. The above two classes may be where all the sponsor shooters play but the bulk of the competitors can be found in the amateur men’s freestyle class. Ninety-three out of the 281 in attendance, almost one-third, were in this single class. Champion Donald Flowers turned in a 532 for fifty targets to be declared the champion. Darin Deneal came in at 528 and Eric Ruemas at 527.

The top scores report the winner in each class but there are other winners too. Shirley and Van Swindall have gone through some health problems and now are back on the range. It was good seeing them looking happy and healthy again. We’ll be looking for them at the NFAA Field Championships in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota. Let this be a warning! Bring your mosquito lotion. They are big bombers! *

The tournament series culminates July 31 -August 2, in Knoxville, TN, with the NABH Game Finder Championship. Known nationally as the Prairie State, many of the visiting archers came to the Lowden Miller Boy Scout Camp expecting to find relatively level terrain and open courses. Instead, however, they were greeted by steep hills and thick ground cover. Once the final arrow was released on Sunday, it was Clayton, De. waterfowl hunting guide and archery pro Jeff Hopkins capturing the third consecutive NABH first place victory in the Pro Men's Open competition. Hopkins shot a two-day score of 510, including 28 shots in the 12-ring. Horseshoe, NC, pro Johnny Heath finished second in the Men’s Pro competition with a score of 506. Ken Litkins of London, KY, earned the third place prize with a two-day score of 494. Douglasville, GA, archer Susan Thompson earned the title in the Women’s Pro division. The NABH veteran finished the event with a two-day score of 449 (including eight shots in the 12-ring) to earn the top prize in the Women’s Pro Division. Cave Creek, AZ, pro Laurie Watson grabbed second place in the Women’s Pro Division recording a final score of 445. Third place on the women’s side went to Darla Owen of Brevard, NC. Owen fired a two-day score of 434. George Dixon of Salida, CO, earned a first-place finish in the Pro Men's Senior Division. Roger Thibault of Turner, ME, finished second in this division. Cana, VA, archer Sonny Chappel finished third in the Pro Men’s Limited competition. Shane Auman of Alpena, AR, won first-place honors in the Semi Pro event. Hosted by the Sauk Valley Archers, the Danner/McKenzie “Illinois Open” drew shooters from 35 states. The youth division drew a total of 87 participants ages 18 and under. The team of NABH Pro Roger Thibault of Turner, ME; Fred Fielder of Muskogee, OK; Steven Binger of Monroe. WI, and John Vinson of Yukon, OK, captured the top prize in the NABH Delta Industries Pro/Am on Friday afternoon. The team scored 833 out of a possible 960 points. “Our many thanks go to the Sauk Valley Archers, and the fine folks of Dixon and Rochester for the wonderful hospitality during our stay,” said NABH Shooting Events Director Johhn Newcomb. “They have worked very hard all year to make this world-class event among the highlights of the 1998 NABH season."

Heath, Hayes reign over the Midwest Classic By Rhonda Campbell

Men’s Pro Winner Johnny Heath

Over 1700 shooters and spectators converged into Bedford. Indiana for the first jewel of the International Bowhunting Organization's (IBO) National Triple Crown Championship. They had come for the challenge of the shoot, the excitement of the event, and the fun of it all! The Midwest Classic, now in its thirteenth consecutive year with the White River Bowhunters was held once again on the 4-H grounds at Bedford. Indiana on May 15-17. Participants at the shoot would face tough courses set on challenging terrain consisting of rocky inclining hills, mixtures of trees and meadows, and deceptive yardages brought on by targets whose body parts were not always within a shooter's full view.

Registration and ranges were opened on Friday, for anyone who wanted to get a jump start to the weekend, with each shooter being assigned an accumulation of ranges to shoot, for a total of forty targets being shot over the course of the tournament. The sun beat down on shooters as temperatures soared into the mid 80's. The thick, humid air quickly drained the energy from everyone in attendance. Concession stands on the grounds had a steady flow of customers throughout the weekend. It was ice cream, ice cream, ice cream as shooters and spectators lined up at the ice cream booth in an attempt to cool off! Shooters and spectators saturated the exhibit areas to see all the latest in archery equipment and accessories that vendors had to offer. The “Big Cat" show, featuring live cats from the wild was a favorite for kids of all ages. The Bowhunter Defense novelty range had a steady flow of shooters throughout the weekend, as did the ever-popular Easton Eagle Eye Shootout range. Others could be found on the practice range, socializing with friends they had made during last season's Triple Crown series. Parents and kids gathered for the Future Bowhunters Shoot on Saturday afternoon. The heat and humidity seemed to have little effect on the determined little archers as each took his other turn at the shooting stake. After the shoot, awards were presented to each participating archer by IBO President Ken Watkins. Everyone went away with a smile!

An addition to this year’s Triple Crown series was the S.T.A.R.S. event, put on by PSE. Shooters registering for this event had the chance to win some prize money. in addition to shooting on their respective assigned ranges. Additional scheduled events taking place at this year's tournament were a target auction, turkey calling contest, karake music and a church service at the amphitheater on Sunday morning. The weekend remained hot and sticky. Some shooters tackled all forty targets in one day. Others broke up their shooting time over the course of the weekend. Battles with temperatures, terrain and yardage raged on the shooting ranges throughout the tournament. Many shooters will not soon forget the Mule Deer on range “C,” whose legs remained out of sight, behind a dip in the ground. Others were challenged by the Ram on range “D,” that appeared to be set on a hill “as high as the treetops,” some exclaimed! On Sunday afternoon, Bear/Jennings shooter Johnny Heath of Horseshoe. North Carolina, emerged from range “C" as the victor in the Pro Men's Release division. His near-perfect score of 398 was the highest score posted for the tournament! He was followed by rookie pro John Dudley and Craig Matteson, each posting a score of 392. Sharon Hayes, the quiet lady from Jemison, Alabama, tackled all forty targets on Saturday. She beat the heat and the other shooters in the Women's Pro

Great Lakes Shootout... Dim Weather/Bright Outcome By Rhonda Campbell The second jewel of the International Bowhunting Organization's (IBO) National Triple Crown was hosted once again by the Gem City Outdoorsmen Club, and held on June 12-14 in McKean. Pennsylvania. Attended by over 1400 shooters and spectators, the tournament got off to a soggy start on Friday as rain rolled through in the morning. As the day went on. the sky partially cleared and temperatures rose into the low 80's, giving everyone in attendance a pleasant start to the weekend. However. shooters would find that dark skies, rain and cooler temperatures were in store for the next two days, creating additional challenges on the shooting ranges this weekend. Crowds of shooters could be found on the practice range meeting with friends and getting some practice in before the shoot. The S.T.A.R.S. tournament table had a lineup of shooters, waiting to register for a chance to shoot and win prize money while out on the ranges. Spectators and shooters went out onto the Bowhunter Defense novelty range, where they found targets set among trees and brush. An abundance of mud and mosquitos was everywhere, and at times when dark clouds passed by, the lack of light within the woods became the biggest obstacle of all! Saturday morning started out with a hot

All participants in the Future Bowhunters Shoot receive awards breakfast served up by members of the McKean Fire Department. After breakfast, shooters prepared to meet at their specific assigned times at the picnic overhang area. Participants had been placed in peer groups for this tournament, based upon their scores from the previous Triple Crown shoot. Each participant would shoot twenty targets per day over the two day period. As the morning went on, dark clouds moved in on shooters as they made their way through the ranges. Terrain on the courses included a mix of tall, leafy trees and brush, long grasses and flowering meadows. Several courses lay at the top of a large hill, taking about twenty minutes to climb. A long walk, but a good cardiovascular workout! As rain closed in, courses became swampy, mudridden and dimly lit. The challenge of the courses made participants utilize all of the shooting skills! Shooters came off the ranges with smiles and frowns. Crowds of people gathered at the practice range to talk about the day’s events. Spectators and shooters made their way through tents and buildings to see all the archery vendors and their respective displays. Shooters were having fun at the Easton Eagle Eye Shootout range and children and their parents were excited at preparing for the popular Future Bowhunters shoot on Saturday evening. It had been a tough day for everyone, although the rain had not doused anyone’s spirit.

As the afternoon came to a close, it was Dale Jones who emerged from the woods with a top score of 392, making him the winner in the Men’s Pro Release class. After placing midpoint in his division at the first leg of the Triple Crown, his accomplishment made this a tournament he will not soon forget! He was followed by Mathews shooter, Randy Chappell, with a score of 390 (with 17 X’s). Chappell remarked that his equipment, as well as the additional practice shooting time he put in during the previous week, helped him take the second place lead. Randy Dennis also posted a 390 (with 14 X’s), placing him third on the tournament leader board. Mathews shooter, Susan Thompson posted the top score of 381 in the women’s Pro division. Thompson cited the time and effort she spent on the Bowhunter Defense range, getting used to shooting in dim lighting as a great aid to her win. Hoyt shooter, Laurie Watson placed second on the leader board with a score of 367, followed by Sherry Bumbarger with a score of 363. The men’s Senior Pro division saw Burley Hail take top billing with a score of 382. The High Country "Maxis” shooter is new to the Senior Pro division this season. Hall felt that the courses were tough and dimly lit, but he was right on with good shooting and good yardage estimation, helping to place him at the top of his class. Sonny Chappell placed second in the Senior Pro division with a score of f 381 (with 12 X’s). Chappell cited the hard work he has done on his mental focus, in combination with the great equipment he was using as the key elements to his win. Third place honors went to George Dixon, who scored a 381 (with 9 X’s).

JULY-AUGUST 1998

Top scores in the Men’s Pro Fingers division were brought in by Bryan Marcum, whose score of 356 gave him the top spot on the leader board, Tony Conques, placing second with a score of 346, and Don Henry in third place with a score of 388. Congratulations — go out to all winners in all classes at this tough tournament! With only one leg left in the Triple Crown Series of National Championship tournaments, there is still time to make plans to come out and have some fun at the Bowhunter Challenge at Nelsonville, Ohio in July or the IBO World Championships at Clymer. New York in August. Good times with friends, challenging events and loads of fun for the whole family are in store for all those who attend!

Atlantic City Archery Classic April 17-19, 1998 • New Convention Center • Atlantic City, New Jersey Sponsored by: Saunders Archery • Specialty Archery • Hoyt USA Story and Photos By Gene Grodski

Mark your calendars! April 30- May 2,1999 New Atlantic City Convention Ctr. Details! The lop shooters at this years Atlantic City Classic like Vince Mancini, Rod White, Denise Parker Trish Johnson and Paul Donahoo all know about “Details". They built and weighed each arrow with surgical precision. They tuned and tweaked their bows till they were totally

confident that nothing was overlooked. They worked on getting not good, but perfect marks. All the top shooters quietly paid their dues weeks, months and sometimes years before, alone with their thoughts, at quiet practice sessions, chasing away the devils and - working out the details. Once they arrived in Atlantic City all they had to do was shoot and hope nothing went wrong with their gear or their confidence. Sound like a familiar quest? If you look at the weep sheet from the “Classic" you will see 700 plus names with numbers next to them. You might be one of them. Pretty impersonal. Don’t you think? What you do not see are their “stories” or the 700 memories each of them took home from the “Classic” weekend, this past April, at the Jersey Shore. As a veteran of the last 11 years shooting the Classic I can say this years was the best. I frankly was worried about the new location at the New AC Convention Center. I like familiar things, but I was wrong.

Someone worked out all the details. The most obvious thing was how smooth the entire shoot went dispite the new location. The New Convention Center was breathtaking. Good lighting, plenty of restrooms, lots of parking and a great hotel right next door. I usually stay at one of the hundreds of inexpensive motels along the Whitehorse or Blackhorse Pike and they are great but the New Sheraton a welcome treat. Arrangements for archers to conveniently store their archery gear, on site, at the convention center had been made. How nice not to have to drag your bow case back and forth to the car. The short walk to the Boardwalk was invigorating and the shuttle, when I was tired, was perfect. Shuttle busses get you everywhere fast, safely and cheap. Gambling is not my bag but I did turn a roll of quarters into $52 which paid for a really nice Italian Dinner and a bottle of wine. The Classic had “The Dart” Video shooting system set up.

WOW! Some great things have been going on > since the last <zI news letter. Las Vegas and Atlantic City - major tournaments, where there was

something for everyone. There was a new concept this year at the Las Vegas tournament. They decided to have an “Archery Festival” with other events in conjunction with their usual tournament. The US Archery Championships ranking system was used in two of these events. We had a full size Dart System set up and ran a ranking tournament. We paid out over

JULY-AUGUST 1998

$3,500 cash each day for our ranked team members. The events were 7, 11 and Open and paid out a total of $10,500. Dan also showed our new 100 unit and the archers played on it for free and learned about the Dan Systems and how to play our game. Using the US Archery Championships' ranking system we also ran a team event for the I BO. This was shot on 20, unmarked. McKenzie 3-D targets and we held 7, 11 and Open events. Over 200 teams signed up and played. Total pay out of these events was over $3,500. Our next tournament was the Atlantic City Classic, April I7-20th. We employed yet another concept at this tournament. Using the scores the archers shot in the Classic, we held team tournaments in the 7, 11 and Open events. adding each team member’s score together for their total score. We held the sign up on Friday for Saturday and Sunday with pay outs each day.

For the three tournaments we paid out over $20,000. All of this money was paid out in cash each day. US Archery Championships now have over 2.500 card carrying members all over the country, with new members being ranked every day. With all of our member's help, we will become the ranking system for all of archery. When this is accomplished, wherever you want to go in this country and enter a tournament you will be able to do so, using US Archery Championships’ ranking system ... a fair and level system for everyone. We will build our memberships so that we will have events with a thousand or more teams competing at one time. This will gel the beginning of big money events. How does six or eight thousand bucks in two or three events sound to you? Jack and Dot Lyons

1996 Olympic Gold Medalist finish and future Olympic contender Tanner Hall

Atlantic City Archery Classic continued... experience left me wanting more. There were all the great vendors, as usual, at their booths offering suggestions and encouragement. All the latest "Archery Stuff” was for sale. Eventually I'll have it all. I always say, “Even if I don’t win I’m going to look good." Year after year the “Atlantic City Classic” has been a huge success. Helen Bolnick, her ACC Archery Team and her band of volunteers seemed to have worked out “all the details”. I guess that must be why this shoot is a “Winner”. Mark your calendars for April 30 and May 1 & 2, 1999 for next years shoot. Maybe I’ll get to take your picture.

From the Senior Corner By Joe Bauernfeind • E-mail joeb@bnl.gov

Hi and happy summer archery season to all you seniors out there. Since my last column I've gotten some more qualifying information from the National Senior Games Association. I called Becky Wesley to find out whether ‘97 games Gold Medal winners were exempt from qualifying for the ‘99 games as had been the case in the past. I had a conflict in events at the NY Senior Games, as the archery and 20K bike race were scheduled for the same morning and I had hoped to qualify for both. It’s a good thing I called since the rules have been changed and everyone who wants to shoot has to qualify. I also asked her to fax me a copy of the archery information for the ‘99 games which I'll condense for you in the next paragraph. If you want a full copy for archery or any other sport you can call her at (504)379-7337. They’re really very helpful and can answer

A multi-mode back tension release. Shoot it with the attached rope or a string loop, in either normal or clicker modes. No hard to load gadgets to add and no caliper jaws to wear out the string loop. A simple adjustment of the half moon cam does it all. One cam has all you need, normal, click and practice modes. Machined and cast handles available. Call and ask about our new "panic breaker" cams.

268

all of your questions. 1 also received the results booklet from the ‘97 Games in Tucson. Of the 10,288 registered athletes only 248 were archers, next to the lowest total of all the sports offered. Let's get out there next year and represent our wonderful sport with a large increase in registrations, I know we can do it and believe me, it's a happening you’ll long remember. Qualifying Rules 1. 1 st, 2nd and 3rd place winners, as well as archers meeting the NSGA minimum performance standards in competition at a 1998 NSGA State Qualifying Games will qualify. See the list of standards at the end of this article. Also you may shoot in any other state games which allows out of state archers to compete. In other words, if you really want to go the opportunity is there for you. 2. You may only qualify in one archery event and you must shoot in the event in which you qualified. Format 1. “900” American Round (90 arrows, 30 each from 60, 50 and 40 yards) will be shot for each of two days. 2. There will be 3 divisions: Compound Release, Compound Fingers, and Recurve. Sport Rules 1. NAA rules will apply with the following exceptions. The inner ten ring will not apply. A 10 minute repair time will be allowed in case of equipment failure. Scopes or binoculars will be permitted. A time limit of 4 minutes for 6 arrows will apply. The winning score will be the total of both rounds. The NY State Senior Games were held from June 4-7 in Syracuse and the weather was good although very windy. I managed a 3rd place in the 10K cycling time trial to qualify for Orlando. It was into the wind the whole way and really tough. Since the 20K cycling road race went off at 8 a.m. and the archery wasn’t scheduled till 10 a.m. I managed to get them both in. 1 got the gold in the race and had to leave right away to get back to the archery venue about 20 miles away. The archery was held on campus at a place called Sky Top. Now there’s a name that implies that you shouldn't shoot target archery there on a windy day. It was pretty tough to shoot those 6 arrows in the 4 minutes allowed. When the wind blew, you couldn’t keep the sight on the face. With one eye on

the timing flags and the other on the target it didn’t make for very good scores. Everyone had the same conditions though so it evens out, but it isn’t my idea of a fun day at the range. Several people failed to get all their arrows shot and a lot of time was spent searching for arrows which were missed due to the wind. 1 qualified with a gold in my age group, so I’m all set for next year. The NFAA Mid Atlantic Sectional was held on June 20-21 at the Mechanicsburg Sportsmen's club in Mecahnicsburg, PA. What a fantastic facility. They have 4 beautiful ranges, a great club house, a camping area and lots of parking. The shooting lanes were grass with lots of shade and were wide enough for four archers across. We shot the field and hunter rounds in four hours which is pretty fast for today’s technical archery. Maybe quicker rounds would help to get people back out to the range. The Senior Freestyle group welcomed a new face into their midst. Don Graham, perennial winner ofjust about everything in Bowhunter Freestyle, decided to join in the fun. When the eyes start to fail and those pins disappear I think it’s time to make the move. He brought his 80 pound peak compound with him. Though 330 fps is nice. I don't know many archers, let alone a senior, who could handle it. The man is amazing. This will give Don a whole new set of problems to analyze and solve so he'll be busy for some time to come. I hope he doesn't get them all solved before the Nationals though, so the rest of us will have a shot at the coveted silver bowl. The seniors continue to amaze the competition in some of the other divisions, too. The 1st and 3rd places in the male freestyle division were also won by senior age men, Larry Hix, who got a silver medal in Tucson, edged out Jose Cuevas by a single point, shooting rounds of 554 Field and 555 Hunter to go with a clean Animal round. Don Comfort of PA finished strongly in 3rd spot. Larry's 555 also earned him a new award presented by Zenith Archery Products. A polished brass Special Edition Comfort Release inscribed “Top Gun” “Mids ‘98”. Look for the next award at the NFAA Nationals in Minnesota. It will go to the top scoring amateur in the Pro/Am event. As a final note, I got just one response to the question I asked in my last article about when an archer should be considered a senior and if there should be a Super Senior Class. Larry Smith of Wisconsin wrote that he Continued on page 270 THE U.S. and INTERNATIONAL ARCHER

Everyone said they had a great time, and with most shooting both the 3-D and the 600 Round events along with the McMahon qualifier plenty of shooting was enjoyed by everyone. At this year’s shoot, a couple of changes were voted upon. First, there is now a family membership available, $20.00 for the initial member and $ 10.00 for spouse and any children of the family up to the age of 18 will receive free membership. Also shooters for 1999 will have to qualify at a qualifying shoot in order to compete in the 3-D Championship portion. If your club would like to hold a qualifier please have thenrcontact the WTA office at (508)643-2972. We are now putting a list together of all qualifying shoots around the world. There will be cash prizes for all adult classes next year at the World Championships. Also, remember that our main cause is to support youth archery in order to keep the sport of archery going. So all youth 17 and under shoot free al our shoots.

Our shoot next year will still be held on Memorial weekend so that we can take advantage of the three day weekend. At this time we have not determined the location but will be announced real soon. We will have a booth at the Eastern Traditional Rendezvous in July at Cloudsport, PA., for membership and information. Estimated to have 10,000 traditional shooters this year with over 100 dealers and manufacturers. Allegheny Mountain Bows has donated a one of a kind Scores on page 270

THE U.S. and INTERNATIONAL ARCHER

Toward the Gold with Freddie Troncoso

Beyond the Basics — Part II

Author Freddie Troncoso In the May-June issue of U.S. and International Archer Magazine, the first

part of "Beyond the Basics" was presented. This feature article presented and outlined what it takes to advance and improve our archery by going beyond the basic steps of beginning archery and early fundamentals. Mentioned also was the importance and necessity of trial and experimentation that produces elevated levels of performance and higher scores. The purpose of this article is to present ongoing commentary that brings to light more insight and information for interested readers and aspiring world class archers to read and examine. During the evolution and discovery of the bow and arrow by the primitive cultures of early humanity, the bow was primarily developed as a hunting weapon and implement for war before it was recognized as a device for competition and show of skill amongst tribal members. As is still evidenced by the many varying techniques outlined in history books and visible among remaining primitive cultures, native bow men still continue to seek out new techniques and attempt to make new discoveries with the hopes of becoming the top tribal archer or leading hunter of their group. Deep down within every living human being is the desire forexcelling in whatever sport or walk of life we decide to enter and take part in. It is no wonder that every living archer, past and present, has hopes of improving his/her shooting form or we would not read any self help articles or

JULY-AUGUST 1998

attend any seminars if everyone was capable of shooting perfect scores each and every time we pick up a bow and arrow. In reality, no archer is absolutely perfect and must therefore, attempt to go "Beyond the Basics” if he/she wishes to emerge victorious and shoot for winning the gold. We can not improve if we solely insist on sticking with the primary basic steps of shooting a bow and arrow. Going "Beyond the Basics” is absolutely imperative — for this is the only avenue to positive improvement along with proper practice and much trial and experimentation. Repeat, this is the secret to all improvement and winning in archery. Are we willing to use this tool to accomplish our goals? I certainly hope so!

Improving the Tab and Shooting Glove Prior to the start of the 1996 Olympic games at Atlanta, a mention was made in our "Checkpoints for Winning Archery” that appeared under the sub-heading of "Improvement Advice”. In this self-help article, I mentioned, described and illustrated a novel approach to the use of a combination tab/shooting glove creation that I had used successfully many years ago. This unique combination was developed out of the need for a better method of releasing the bowstring that would produce higher scores for myself and for my friends. Well guess what! During the unforgettable Olympic Games at Atlanta and at the Grand Prix Tournament that preceded the games, a very talented and strong archer from La Bella Italia appeared using this very same combination and he used it with great accuracy and success. Yes, Michele Frangilli of Italy made his Olympic debut using this unique tab/shooting glove combination that allowed him to shoot and post the new world record score of 684 during the ranking round and also made it possible for him to tally the high 170 point total for the single pass! Irony or just chance? I don't think so! This talented archer went on to shoot against Justin Huish and ended up losing the quarterfinals by a mere one point! Does Michele go "Beyond the Basics” by trial and experimenting? I

think that his use of the unique tab/glove combination verifies what this article is emphasizing and saying. I believe we will see more of Michele at the 2000 Sydney Olympic games. I can assure you that this great archer and a multitude of Olympic hopefuls are out there practicing diligently to further improve their scoring and shooting this very minute. This is what it takes to improve and to stay at the top.

Exceptional Greats of Yesteryear Many times in past issues, I have mentioned many great shooters of yesteryear including champion archer Russ Hoogerhyde for his extraordinary and superior prowess with the bow and arrow. The fact that this great archer ruled and led the world of target archery from 1930 through 1940 winning 6 out of 8 championships he attended leads us to conclude that he must have paid his dues with regards to the endless practice hours that are required to accomplish such a feat. The reason that I am mentioning this great archer again is obvious. First of all, Hoogerhyde was one of the most perfect examples of classic shooting form our world has ever known. He aimed and held the bow at full draw until he was absolutely certain ±at every one of his checkpoints for shooting was exactly the same — then he released and followed through with absolute perfection and symmetry. When asked about back tension, Mr. Hoogerhyde replied, “It is absolutely necessary to hold and maintain the all important SPREAD while shooting.” While he was teaching archery at Teela Wooket, Russ would suggest and describe a unique and very novel approach to releasing the bowstring that helped him and many of his alumni to improve their shooting and scoring. Hoogerhyde used and originated his unique and secret “trigger squeeze” method of releasing the bowstring that allowed the bowstring to slowly slip off the finger tips of the shooting glove as he held the arrow point stationary awaiting the release to occur. Hoogerhyde described this occurrence as follows, “It is a delightful feeling when the string slips off without the

271

archer having any fore warning as to when the release is going to happen". Scientific studies and research of that era concluded that the reaction time required to respond to and affect the results of the unexpected “surprise” release was not sufficient to affect the shot as long as the arrow was released using this method. Unique and going “Beyond the Basics", Yes! Without a doubt, practically everyone recalls or personally knows our great archer Butch Johnson who switched over to the recurve bow style of shooting prior to the 1992 Olympic games at Barcelona. Yes, Butch Johnson also discovered and utilized the gradual slip-off technique for releasing the bowstring when he shot a compound bow with his fingers. With his tremendous record of wins and victories, using a compound bow and the slip-off release, Butch has proven to us that going "Beyond the Basics” works for him and his lovely wife, Tricia.

archers to serve and sew each fingerstall in a semi-arc as shown to ensure a tight fit. The tight fitting finger stalls thereby, led to the practice of shooting using the finger stalls without the skeleton or glove types normally used by archers. Several archers of the era made these stalls using a double layer construction. In this manner, the outer and grooved layer would not crease easily thereby eliminating plucking the string that normally occurs when a shooting glove becomes worn or deeply grooved. Yes, archers have always attempted to go “Beyond the Basics" by evolving with an endless stream of innovations for archery. The above mentioned example is vivid proof of the constant search for improvement.

The Killian Tab (1970)

The Howard Hill Glove Sometime during the 50’s, the great Howard Hill of movie and bowhunting fame evolved with a shooting glove that incorporated the use of three thin pieces of spring steel that was sandwiched between the two layers of leather that made up each finger stall. Mr. Hill always advocated the use of a fine shooting glove that would not groove too deeply. He advised rubbing the fingerstalls with talcum powder to keep them smooth and functional. The spring steel concept evolved out of the need for finding a better method of releasing the bowstring when using heavy bows that pulled between 80-100 lb. Mr. Hill was a great shooter, thinker, and innovator. He definitely went “Beyond the Basics” to achieve his extraordinary hand and eye coordination that produced his highly enviable accuracy and success with the bow and arrow.

The Forgotten Peep Sight

History of Improved Gloves and Tabs

The Hutchings’ Fingerstall Darkened area represents place for scoring on the inside that programs area and groove where bowstring will be sealed

During the year 1947 or thereabouts, an archer by the name of Edwin Hutchings developed and introduced an improved archery glove that featured a novel design for finger tips for shooting gloves. The unique fingerstalls and tips were shaped and hand sewn as shown in the accompany illustration. The darkened area on the drawing of the tips represents a pronounced depression on the inner surface that pre­ programs and determines where the bowstring will rest when engaging the bowstring. Mr. Hutchings suggested using cordovan horsehide and further advised

272

The Killian tab was introduced during the early 70’s as a result of the uncertainty regarding the legality and use of mechanical releases for tournament use. The tab consisted of two layered leather pieces attached to a round holding dowel which was held with the index and little fingers of the drawing hand. The middle and ring fingers engaged and contacted the bowstring. The releasing of the string was accomplished by relaxing the middle and ring fingers. Some archers of that era gradually squeezed on the pulling dowel which was one variation of several utilized with this unique tab. This novel tab was very new and different and very functional. Truly another example of going “Beyond the Basics” via invention and innovation.

Since the beginning of target archery in the United States, good and successful archers have always used some form of bowstring alignment as a make/shift rear sight. Why we shoot recurve bows without bowstring peep sights is beyond me and is a true mystery to many other archers. Yes, I realize that FITA rules currently do not allow the use of a bowstring peep sight — but why not? The peep sight has been a successful part of archery since the early sixties and was allowed for NAA use up until the introduction of the compound bow and release aids during 1971 when NAA went to strict FITA rules. In virtually every Olympic shooting sport except archery, the use of the rear sight or peep is allowed for use in conjunction with the front sight to yield optimum accuracy and to provide every competitor an equal chance of bettering their shooting. In Olympic competition, there is air rifle and air pistol competition along with small bore rifle and pistol competition that allows use of both front and rear sights. Just stop to think at how difficult it would be to shoot any rifle or pistol without the use of a rear sight or peep sight aperture. Truthfully, the results without rear sights would be disastrous and would drive many participants away from those sports. Recently FITA Congress passed and approved the regular FITA round scoring

Professional Archery Technique: Defeating Target Panic by Kirk Ethridge Author of Professional Archery Technique

You’ve been shooting great for months. You're ready for the Nationals but something terrible happens to you once you get there. At the shooting line, you find you can’t hit the target; you’re punching your release, and you have an irresistible urge to fire as soon as the target is in the sight. Not only that, but you’re freezing; you can’t seem to force the sight onto the target. The diagnosis? The dreaded Target Panic virus. Fear not. the doctor is here. The cause of target panic is not known with certainty. Stress, fear of failure, fear of success, have all been posted as its source. Whatever the source, this malady has been the bane of many a great shooter's existence. It is curable, but not without difficulty. Simple target panic, or release punching, can sometimes be cured by changing to a release that is not dependent on a trigger. The Carter Solution™ or Stanislawski rotational release solves the problem by transferring the urge to shoot to rotation of the hand. This allows you to aim, since the actual release of the string comes as a surprise and is not under your control. You aim until the bow fires, rather than aiming and engaging some sort of trigger mechanism. A Stanislawski release fitted with a “full moon” cam is useful for improving aiming and evaluating the degree of target panic. This cam will not allow the Stan to release; there is instead an audible snap at the point where the string would have been released. When using a full moon, you can see the target through the snap, and eliminate flinching. This won’t solve serious cases, but may be useful for some people. Another alternative is the electronic release by Carter Enterprises. This ingenious device creates a random delay time from pressing the trigger button to firing. Since it fires itself, you can aim without distraction. The “clicker” has been promoted by some as a remedy for more serious forms of target panic, especially for uncontrollable punching. A clicker is generally used by recurve shooters

Scope Lenses — Clearing It Up Part I by Chuck Cooley, Feather Visions, Inc.

Bert Cooley, Contributing Editor In the sport of archer)', technology has improved almost every component of bows and related equipment. There are now stronger lighter risers, faster and safer limbs, super fast arrows, better strings. sights, and releases. The list goes on and on. Another area of improvement has been the addition of a scope housing and scope lens to the bow to provide the shooter an enhanced and larger image of the target. In this series of articles, we will present some of the basics of scope lenses, including their design, construction materials, coatings, powers, and other qualities to be aware of when selecting a scope lens for your housing. The idea of putting a scope on a bow is not new, nor is the idea of adding a lens to produce a larger image. However, the idea intended was that a clear image is presented to the shooter, a feat not truly completed until now. For years archers have tolerated what was believed to be the best available optics for scope lenses while suffering with variations in power and edge distortion. Technology has finally conquered the optics challenge. The answer starts with the lens design, that is the topic we will present here.

MODERN FEATHER GUIDANCE Fast, Forgiving and Accurate!

Lens Design The first lens design is a plano-convex, meaning flat on one side and convex on the other. Many people simply refer to this type of design as a “flat” lens. Magnification is achieved by starting with a piece of glass of a given thickness and while leaving one side flat, grind a slightly convex surface on the other side. Plano-convex lenses are generally made from glass in the interest of cost savings and material availability. Optical quality glass is fairly inexpensive to produce and readily available from a number of sources around the world. The optical quality of these types of lens is generally acceptable when viewed through the center of the lens and at lower powers. However, images tend to distort when viewed through the outer edges of the lens or when using powers of .50 diopters (4X) and above, especially in larger diameters. Other disadvantages of this type of design are the susceptibility of the glass to breakage, especially when drilled, and the weight of the lens. A somewhat more recent lens is the meniscus design, meaning convex-concave or curved. The outside of the lens is produced with a convex pattern, while the inside of the lens receives a similar concave pattern that is equal in distance from the convex surface at all points on the lens. The difference in the radius between the convex and concave shaping produces the desired magnification. This lens is most generally produced from a material known in the optics industry as CR-39, but it is commonly referred to as a plastic lens. CR-39 is a popular choice for lenses because it is even less expensive than optica] quality glass to produce and is available in many grades of optical quality. depending on the country of origin. There

is no argument that CR-39 addresses the weight problems inherent to a glass lens. However, it has a slight disadvantage when compared to glass and a significant shortcoming when compared to polycarbonate, because its fine point light scattering is the highest of the three. Other drawbacks include the distorted imaging of a glass lens and chipping or cracking. The newest lenses utilitize an aspheric design, meaning crescent shaped. Magnification is achieved by using convex and concave patterns, however, the graduated, compensating shape results in a lens with the near flatness of glass. Using a crescent shape, where the convex and concave curves are al graduated distances from each other, aspheric lenses force the optical image to meet at one focal point rather than multiple points. This produce the sharpest and clearest image possible by eliminating distortion when compared to plano-convex or minuscus designs (see Fig 1). This is true even in large bodied scope­ housings and in lenses with higher dioptic values of .75 (6X) and 1.0 (8X). In many cases the need for a clarifier can be eliminated. While an aspheric design can be applied to lenses made from glass or CR39 plastic, they are not the material of choice. Although more expensive. polycarbonate has emerged as the preferred material for an aspheric lens because of its superior strength, durability, clarity, and lower fine point light scattering tendencies. We hope this information will help you make an informed decision the next time you are looking for a new lens for your scope. Watch for our discussion of lens coatings in a future issue.

This should help clarify and address some of the questions you might have about your archery. 276

have a 50 to 70 pound bow that I’ve heard it's more accurate to shoot it at the 70 pound setting rather than the 50. Is this true? This is a common misconception. Bow draw weights normally range 15 to 20 pounds and. when it come to accuracy, it makes no difference whether they are shot al the low or high end of the draw weight. ACCURACY (and “forgiveness") in a bow has become confused with EFFICIENCY. A bow is very slightly more efficient at the heavier end. For example with some bows, you might be able to shoot a 350 grain arrow at 70 pounds (5 grains per pound) 1 to 3 feel per second faster than if you shot a 250 grain arrow at 50 pounds (5 grains per pound) using the same bow. It has nothing to do with accuracy, only feet per second, or cast. hould I shoot my 50 to 70 pound bow at 70 pounds with a 350 grain arrow at 3-D shoots that use the 5 grains per pound rule? It makes little difference whether you shoot your bow al 50 pounds with a 250 gram arrow, 60 pounds with a 300 grain arrow, or 70 pounds with a 350 grain arrow. There will probably be less than 2 feet per second difference. The best thing to do is to shoot your bow at the most comfortable draw weight and holding weight for YOU. Over the long haul, this will give you ten times more points than 1 or 2 feet per second will presently am shooting a 65% let-off and I’m considering buying a new 80% let-off bow so I can hold 8 to 10 pounds at full draw. Will this help to make my release smoother and more accurate? Holding weight is an individual thing, but in general, al least for most male target archers of average size, holding weights above 15 to 20 pounds seem to have better results. The reason for this is, if the holding weight is too low (8 to 12 pounds), the average archer has a tendency to let the draw wrist bend and the elbow gel out of line. Upon release, this causes string torque and many more left and right arrows than a heavier holding weight bow. The greater holding weight keeps the elbow and wrist taut with less slack and less tendency to miss left and right. This situation is similar to finger shooters requiring more holding weight in order to help get the fingers off the string cleanly. s it true that a high wrist position is better than low wrist because there is less hand touching the bow grip? This is true in theory, but not often in practice. The reason for this is, the average archer cannot duplicate the high wrist position consistently shot after shot nearly as well as a low wrist grip. The weight of the bow should press against the bone in the base of the hand below the middle finger, just on the inside (thumb side) of the life line (low wrist), not in

the web of the thumb between the thumb and the first finger (high wrist). The high wrist grip has a tendency to change from shot to shot due to pressure, fatigue, elevated shots, or other influences. Your sight picture should be steadier with a low wrist grip due to the fact that the bow hand is relaxed. Il takes muscle recruitment to keep the hand in the high wrist position and muscles cause movement. The less muscles involved in the shot, the more steady you will become. That’s why well over 90% of the best target and 3-D archers use a low wrist grip. recently changed from 2512 aluminum arrows to carbon arrows. My arrow rest is a TM Hunter. I’ve adjusted the nocking point down to allow for the difference in arrow diameter, but now when I paper tunc. I’m getting a high tear no matter where I move the nocking point. What can I do? This is a common problem when shooters go from heavy arrows to light arrows that have a launcher-type rest. When a heavy arrow paradoxes (bends), it collapses the rest on its way out of the bow. A properly tuned rest does not return to the upright position until after the arrow has cleared it However, when a lighter arrow paradoxes past the same rest, the rest may spring back up and hit the nock end of the arrow before it has cleared, causing high tears. Most of the lime, all that is required is simply adjusting the spring tension of the launcher down so that it is just enough to hold up the arrow al full draw. This will help keep the launcher down long enough so the arrow can clear it completely. am a finger shooter and I have heard of three different ways to release ... from the end of the finger tips (shallow hook), from the crease at the first joint (medium hook), or from the area between the first and second joints of my fingers (deep hook). Which is better? For most shooters, it is belter to use one of the last two hooks, whichever one allows the back of the hand to completely relax. That way when the draw elbow is moving rearward, the string tension opens the fingers more in a straight line and much more consistently. When a fingertip grip is used by the average archer, the hand forms a cup, or “C” and it also creates tension in the back of the hand, causing lefts and rights and other inconsistencies, such as the arrow falling off the rest. am a right-handed archer with a hatchet­ cam bow, a TM Hunter rest, a concho-style release and ACC arrows. When I paper test, I continuously get 1 1/2 inch left tears, no matter what I do. How can I correct this? It could be one of many things, but one of the most likely causes is the concho release. The

concho release causes the wrist to be bent at anchor. Upon execution, instead of a straight wrist coming straight back, the bent wrist recoils, causing string torque. You might try switching to any kind of wrist strap release or hand-held thumb release that allows the wrist to be straight and relaxed at full draw. Frequently, paper tears are not caused by your untuned equipment, (rest, timing, nock set, center shot, arrow spine, etc.), but by flaws in shooting form. Another cause could be you may be introducing bow hand torque into the shot. This can be eliminated by finding a torque-free hand position. Put baby oil on your grip and your hand and experiment with different hand positions until you find one that allows the stabilizer to kick straight forward upon release. Your hand position should not slip left, right, up or down. One or both of these two should eliminate any left tears caused by bow hand or string hand torque. experience a lot of left and rights when I hoot. What could cause this? Lefts and rights can be caused by several things, but one commonly overlooked cause is misalignment of the pin in the peep. Left and right arrows can also be caused by torque from misalignment of the draw elbow, draw wrist, or bow hand. All these body parts must be relaxed and in a straight line at the moment of release to eliminate bow torque. Also, too long of a draw length will cause a shaky sight picture and mostly left arrows (for a right handed archer). Inconsistent nock alignment can also cause erratic arrow flight. Powder test your arrows and then make sure all nocks are placed on your arrows exactly the same by using a nock jig so there is no interference with the rest from arrow to arrow. Number your arrows so you can identify the faulty ones. experience a lot of high and low arrows when I shoot long distances. What could cause this? If you are shooting 40 or more yards, arrow weight becomes critical. Arrows should be weighed with a grain scale and adjusted to weigh the same. This can be accomplished by cutting pieces of hot melt and adding them to each lip, until all arrows weigh the same as the heaviest one. Do this before assembly while the arrow and tip are still on the grain scale. Then, hold each tip with pliers and heat until the hot melt is melted. After it hardens, install the tips as you normally would. All of your arrows will not weigh within 1/10 of a grain of each other. Arrow weight can be much more critical than you think. For example, at 60 yards, shooting a 210 f.p.s. bow, a 346 grain arrow will drop 1 1/ 4 inches more than a 345 grain arrow, which will drop 1 1/4 inches more than a 344 grain arrow. The difference in drop between a 340 grain arrow and a 346 grain arrow at 60 yards from a 210 f.p.s. bow is 8 and 3/4 inches. Of course, at faster speeds, or shorter distances, the drop will be somewhat less, but as you can see.

this could throw you into the lower scoring area of a 3-D or field target. hould I focus on the sight pin, the target, or half way between? For most archers, the answer is the target. It’s much easier to concentrate on something that is not moving. If the sight pin is slightly off die target, the natural hand-eye coordination and the mind's “natural centering ability” will help move it to the center, where the mind is concentrating. Some archers that have a problem with “freezing off’ the target should definitely focus on the target. If they are staring at the pin, hand-eye coordination will not help them get to the center if that’s not where they are concentrating. A very few professional archers find it advantageous to focus on the pin to make sure the pin remains centered in the peep, which is also important. Keep in mind, these professionals hold 3 to 4 times steadier than the average archer, which we have demonstrated in the Shooter’s School with a laser on their sight. When you come to full draw, center you pin in the center of the peep, then focus on the target and let you pin be secondary. have a habit of grabbing the bow. How can I overcome this problem? I can recommend two ways. First, buy a bow sling and adjust it properly. The sling should allow your hand to come out of the bow about 3/4 inch, but no more than 1 inch. Caution: if it too tight, it can cause bow torque. If it is too loose, you won’t trust it to do its job. Next, practice up close on an empty bale, concentrating on letting the bow kick out of your hand without grabbing it. The hand and fingers should be relaxed. Do not keep the fingers stiff. Also try this: tuck your middle, ring, and little finger in between the hand and the grip. Only the index finger and the thumb should wrap around the grip and they should loosely hold the bow. t seems that the harder I try to keep niy sight from moving, the more it moves. What can I do? This is a common problem and you need to understand you can’t hold the sight completely steady. You’ll hold steadier by “un-trying". What you need to do is relax and let the sight float around with your own natural arc of movement, instead of trying to control it. The less muscles involved in the shot, the steadier you will be. When you try to control it, you engage muscles that flex and unflex, thus causing movement. So, relax and let the sight move naturally. o shoot with back tension, my friends tell me I should set the trigger as sensitive as possible. Is this true? Just the opposite is true. Most top professional archers that shoot with trigger releases set them medium to medium-heavy. Tire reason for this is, since the back muscles cannot detect extremely small movements, a hairy

trigger can cause premature execution before the back muscles have a chance to get very involved. I teach my students to set the trigger on medium to medium-heavy, come to full draw. squeeze off 50-75% of the trigger, then stop squeezing! Next, start squeezing the back muscles together, which starts the elbow back and behind the head. This will give you a much more consistent, dynamic and unpredictable release. If the trigger is set extremely light, just slight movement of the finger or thumb will set it off. which is punching the trigger, not back tension. Since the release should be a surprise, the back muscles should set the release off because they cannot predict a small amount of movement. On the other hand, the finger or thumb can sense a very small amount of movement, anticipating the moment of release. The moment of release should be subconsciously activated and a “total surprise.” not conscious and anticipated, which can lead to target panic. he mass weight of my bow is extremely light and I’m having trouble holding it steady, especially when shooting in the wind. What do you recommend? Most top competitive male archers have bows with a mass weight of around 8 to 12 pounds. For the average shooter, this is too heavy, due to lack of conditioning. As rifle shooters learned a long time ago, a 17-pound bull barrel target rifle will hold much steadier than a 6 pound stock rifle of the same caliber. Most professional archers learned years ago that the heavier a bow is. the less it will move around and is less susceptible to the wind. Unfortunately, you can't just add 5 to 6 pounds to your bow and expect to shoot steadier immediately. This will probably cause shoulder injuries. Just like a weight lifter, you must add the mass weight a little at a time. To develop your muscles gradually, get an empty gallon milk jug and add water to it. One gallon of water weighs approximately 8 pounds, so start out with it 1/2 to 3/4 full, depending on how heavy your bow it. Make it weigh one pound more than your bow. Hold it out for 15 seconds like you would a bow, then relax for 15 seconds, 30 times a day for one week. This should build up your bow shoulder unit. Add 1/2 to 1 pound per week. Each person is different, so be careful not to injure yourself. Too much mass weight can cause you to be unsteady also, so find out what is right for you. After you have built up your muscles and arc ready to add the weight to your bow, it should be added under the grip. such as a back weight or V-Bars. not stacked on to the end of the stabilizer. The bow should balance in your hand, not roll drastically forward when shot. This will cause you to start grabbing the bow, among other things.

1998 U.S. National Field Championships & World Field Trials June 4-7,1998 • Roosevelt, Utah By Marion Rhodes

(L-R) Cindy Ruckman, Leslie Howa and Kathryn Weise The Unitah Basin Sharpshooters picked the site — the beautiful Unitah Canyon north of Roosevelt, Utah. Spectacular mountains rising to the north to 13.000 feel elevation were still covered with snow! Mountains and canyon were shrouded in clouds and mist when we first viewed the Canyon. The practice range was in a lush moist meadow and the headquarters were at a nearby campground surrounded by aspens, pines and beaver ponds — a beautiful spot! From the practice range, one could see a number of targets poised way up on the steep hill above. The hill was covered with fallen trees from a recent forest fire, looking to be a challenging course at the least! The weather was never hot, and consisted of numerous showers, some sleet and some rain. but nothing really bad. At least it was cool and so bulky clothing and rain gear didn’t seem oppressive to wear. Unmarked distances were shot the first day.

Just scrambling up the sleep, rock covered hill was a major part of the competition— targets and foolholds for shooting were at all angles and steep uphill or downhill, adding to the “flavor." One's skills al “field shooting" were demanded al each target! Competitors were regrouped the second day according to scores in each division. The marked distance targets were on a far more “woodsy" course the second day but with still many steep angles, soft earth and slippery pine needles to contend with. Lunches were provided at a reasonable fee by the Unitah Basin Sharpshooters using a barracks type lent and were much appreciated by the archers. It was great to see many familiar faces al the competition such as Jim Pickering, Jay and Janet Barrs, Michelle and Terry Ragsdale, Rick McKinney. Vic and Sally Wunderle, Mike Gerard.

Memories of Richard “Dick” Carella From Terry LaBeau

Richard testing his equipment

In Loving Memory of

Richard F. Carella March 18, 1931 - February 9th, 1998 Do not stand al my grave and weep. I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow; I am the diamond glints on the snow. I am sunlight on ripened rgrain; 1 am the gentle autumn’s rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in the circled flight. 1 am the soft star that shines al night. Do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there. I did not die. Wujek — Calcaterra & Sons

From wife Dorothy Carella Richard's loving wife. Dorothy, said. “Richard and I were married for 43 years. He is thefather ofour twin daughters Denise and Deborah and grandfather of Aaron, Courtney and Ryan. He was a veteran and received the Purple Heart. He began shooting archery at age 20. He is the founder of Range-O-Matic Archery Company and has more than 24 patents: Rangefinder Bowsight. Double Slottted Bracket, Quick Draw Arrow Holder, SpinWing Vanes, Formaster Training devices. Also, he designed all the machinery for his products. His trademark lAs Good As Gold’ applies to Spin-Wing vanes. “While working as a design engineer at General Motors Corp, for 17 years he patented many automotive designs including door locking mechanisms. Richard has been a technical advisor at the National Training Center and loved to teach archeryform. He was energetic, honest and generous of his time and equipment to the archers. ”

As many of you know, on February 9, 1998. archery lost one of its true pioneers. I remember the days when I stood on the outdoor range of Lincoln Bowmen Archery Club in Brownstown, Michigan, over 25 years ago and watched this small curlyhaired guy tinker with the single T Vane which eventually became the Spin Wing vane. We talked for hours about archery, about his struggles to get accepted by the archery world, to the problems of patents for his Rangefinder bow sight for which his company was named. Dick Carella never built a bow or a carbon arrow for which so many of our archery pioneers are known. Dick made the vane that made the arrow fly better and straighter and score higher. Dick developed several training devices which helped the world’s Olympic style shooters reach new world records. Dick donated much of his time to the National Archery Training Center as a technical advisor. Yes, it was an honor and a privilege for me and the archery world to have known Dick Carella. a true archery pioneer.

Memories of Richard By Jerry Tesch When I first met Richard, my archery was in serious trouble. I had a bad case of target panic and it was getting worse. Then one day he approached me and said. “I can help," and showed me one of his training devices. I was frustrated with my shooting so I told him I had nothing to lose. Well, within two months he had me shooting better than ever, and I’ve never had target panic again... that’s the way he was, always ready to help any archer who wanted it. This was the quiet beginnings of what was to become a great friendship. Soon, we were shooting our bows together constantly. He was quite a coach, and a great many Olympic archers will testify to that! Richard was also a remarkable inventor. Bowhunters my age will remember his Rangefinder-Rings (sight pins). He was the first to use a double slotted sight, which accommodated the Rangefinder Rings on the ever faster bows. He is probably best known for his Spin-Wing vanes which have won all the gold medals at the Olympics since they were first introduced in 1984.

1997 NAA Nationals Darrell Pace, Richard, and Justin Huish From time to time. Richard would have me test some prototype vanes, most often Spin-Wings of different drag rates, or how they compare to other vanes at long distances and in the wind. He always wanted to come up with a vane for hunting (regular Spin-Wings are low drag and not meant for broadhead shooting). Late last summer, Richard put his newest vane, the Spin-Wing-Hunter. into production. They shoot fixed blade broadheads with field point accuracy, even at much higher speeds than ever thought possible. There's also a smaller version, called Spin-Wing-Elite. They are being well received by Olympic shooters and 3D shooters. A lot of people may be surprised to learn that he was an excellent bowhunter. We hunted whitetails many times in the big woods of Michigan’s U.P. These were special times, in a special place. In our camp, we all shared the joy of each other’s success. He had a knack for calling deer. for which he gave credit to his crow cal ling on his grandfather’s farm as a boy. He arrowed his biggest buck on a trip we made to Kentucky, a fine eight pointer, which he called in. It was a proud moment for him, and I was happy to be there for it. We shared so many good times together. 1 can’t begin to describe what a special friend he was ... he touched the lives of many people, all over the world, and so they are blessed. I count myself as luckier than most for having known him so well. He was my coach, my hunting partner, and most of all, he was my best friend. Thanks, Richard, for everything!

SPECIALTY ARCHERY PRODUCTS PRESENTS THE LENS MAKES THE DIFFERENCE

All reflection is focused to the center of a curved meniscus lens. This type of lens works well for eye glasses but will cause reflection when held away from the eye. Even the best coatings will not stop the reflection.

Reflection

The EXCALIBUR lens by Specialty Archery Products is designed to eliminate reflection with the flat side facing you. Our multi-coating totally stops any reflection.

The EXCALIBUR lens is the only lens that can be replaced or turned in the housing without affecting the arrows point of impact.

John Williamson From Pat Norris

John Williamson died March 15, 1998. A heart attack took him at the early age of 57. John was my best friend, many thought him arrogant, they should have gotten to know him. He danced all over the world from about his 16th birthday until he was about 27. This was before his archery career. John was a lead ballet dancer in Vegas. San Francisco. Phoenix. New York. Havana. Cuba, and Europe. He performed for all of us show goers, and Royalty alike. He injured his knee and never fully recovered from the

operation. Then he became more than a casual archer, he joined organized archery with a passion. Most of today's target archers and bowhunters never met him. but all of them owe him a tip of the hat and a thank you for our sport. John was the leader behind the scenes in legalizing the compound bow and release aids. He was the NFAA Councilman for the Pro Division that successfully kept Professional archery growing when the PAA. NAA and all the major manufacturers of the early 1970’s outlawed our equipment. John was a partner in Jennings Compound Bows, he was instrumental in the design of all the early Jennings bows from 1969 through the mid 1980's. He proved the product in the field. Santa Cruz and Catalina islands, and the Angeles National Forest were his hunting grounds. John was a tenacious archer, he knew the rules and could push them to the limit or just have a good time shooting around the range. He won the CBH and SAA State Target Championships Professional Men in 1971. John won the Fresno Safari in 1972 (with the first perfect 1200. only three were ever shot). He won the California State Field Championships in 1972 Freestyle Men. John

set a world record at the NFAA Nationals. John traveled to Europe and introduced the compound bow. The currently used NFAA field target was approved with his help and guidance as the NFAA Pro Chairman. John gave his time freely and coached many students at Los Angeles Pierce College ... never asking nor accepting payment. John was the president of Archery. Inc, a southern California organization that gave credit to the unsung people that have given so much of themselves to California archery. Archery Inc. gave way and was instrumental in the forming of the California Archery Hall of Fame in 1976. He shot with and taught many celebrities to shoot accurately. After leaving Jennings. John specialized in business applications in the computer industry. Among his clients were companies like Jimmy Dean Sausages. I could continue writing of the many contributions John made to our sport of archery. 1 could write a hundred pages about the hard work. fun. practical jokes and good times many of us were fortunate enough to share with him. Instead, I will just say that archery has lost one of its warriors. Sometime in the

Bill Otto • 1912 — 1998 From Tom and Hazel Jennings

Our long time dear archery friend. Bill Otto, passed away April 22, 1998 in Niland. California. Bill was born in Chicago. Illinois July 21. 1912. He is survived by his wife Nina Otto of Niland. California and Grand Haven, 284

Michigan, four stepsons and two nieces. One stepson and stepdaughter preceded him in death. Bill Otto was shooting archery in the early 1940's with the Wilhelm Brothers, Roy and Frieda Hoff. Tiny Munson, Nubbie Pate. John Yount. Merle Hathaway and so many others who have welcomed Bill to their archery gatherings in heaven. Bill joined Hugh Rich Archery in Glendale. California in 1949 and retired from same in 1968. Bill was a life member of the Malibu Mountain Archery Club. A 50 year plus member of the National Field Archery Association. An early member of the Pasadena Roving Archers and also the Sagittarius Broadhead Club. Bill loved field archery and his bowhunting in the beautiful California mountains. Jarbidge. Nevada and the Mojave desert were Bill’s choice for big and small

game hunting. The Colorado River, lakes and streams up and down the Western states were a magnet to Bill to cast his fishing line and make new friends. He was a good, fun loving fisherman and a super camper. We, with many others, will miss our dear friend. Bill and Nina visited in our home and we in theirs where we recalled working together, old friends, shooting, hunting and fishing. We extend to Nina, the family and many friends of Bill Otto our sympathy and may we say ... "If God would make some quiet words, That like the fluttering of birds. Would softly slip into the heart and sing. And from the sharpest sorrow steal the sting. And lull the fevered heart to rest. And heal its hurt, I'd do my best, Lo capture some of them and let them be. My messengers of silent sympathy. Author Unknown THE U.S. and INTERNATIONAL ARCHER

future I know we will meet up again. I hope that all archers will take a moment to think about the men and women that helped archery to grow and become our great sport. John Williamson is among them and earned the right to be one of them. We will all miss you, John. John leaves his wife, Joanne, and seven year old Alex. He is survived by his brother Bryson, sister Sarah, and his Aunt Katherine. Our prayers go to the family. God Bless, and good shooting, John!

for the compound and release shooters. In this manner, we can more equitably compare scores of release shooters to the world records shot and held by Korean recurve bow archers. Everyone knows and realizes that recurve bow and compound shooters do not compete with each other and we also realize that the compounds should post higher scores. Also, we must realize that not one living compound shooter has shot a perfect 1440 FITA round and I sincerely doubt that anyone ever will! Wouldn’t allowing recurve bow shooters the use of the bowstring peep sight bring the scores closer together and attract more archers? I definitely think so! If you agree with this suggestion, write to your FITA delegate or to your particular FITA Association asking them to please consider allowing the use of the peep sight for recurve bow shooters in Olympic Competition. By allowing the peep sight, we will definitely attract more archers by providing and adding a very needed fine-line degree of accuracy for the difficult style of recurve bow shooting that will definitely help to raise our scores. Think this suggestion over carefully, then pickup your pen and write to FITA President Jim Easton or to FITA's Administrative Offices in Milan. The address is: Jim Easton, FITA President, 7855 Haskell Ave. Suite 202, Van Nuys, Calif. 91406 or to: FITA Congress, c/o FITA Administrative Offices, Via Bartolini 39, Milan, Italy.

this cam from 27 1/2 inches to 31 inches, without a bow press, just by removing one alien screw and rotating the inner cam. The Reflex bow line is designed with the help of World renowned bowhunter Chuck Adams. “One key to my recent hunting success has been the Reflex bow line from Hoyt USA,” stated Chuck. “Reflex bows are fast, accurate, and dependable ... no-nonsense products for serious hunters at a reasonable price. Once tuned, these are the sweetest-shooting bows I’ve ever used. When a large animal appears, I don’t agonize over the shot. I aim, release, and watch the arrow fly precisely to the mark. My success in 1996 and 1997 is proof positive that Reflex bows really work!”
