Default RE: Legendary Bowhunters POLL

Don't forget Will and Maruice Thompson who were a couple of generations before Pope and Young. Maurice wrote Witchery of Archery as a series ofarticles for Harpers Bazaar magazine. The articles dealt with their adventures 'by field and flood' with longbows. They were complied into a book and published in 1879. Very odd reading, when compared to our legalities and sense of ethics these days, but a fascinating look back at hunting in the late 19th Century.
