We old guys still know the name Bob Swinehart AKA(Bobcat). There is quite a discussion about him on the leatherwall at this time as well as pictures of his exploits.

Thanks and good to know. Yes the olīschool of bowhunters (those who used recurve, long and flat bows) is passing away. I have been shooting longbows and flatbows for many years but since IīVe got married, kids etc the shooting has gone down almost next to nothing..however I feel I have got a new interest again(and time) to pick-up where I left 17 years ago. Names like Saxton Pope, Howard Hill, JOhn Schulz and Paul Bear isnīt mentioned as much overhere as they used to.
BTW I bought a Yew take-down longbow by Jay St.Charles some 9 years back. I did a bit of shooting with it the first year(―season) but havenīt got around to shoot it on regular basis(as one ought to) to keep up the skills. That longbow from Jay is the sweetest bow I have yet handled.
