Mike,
Glad things have been well for you. Moving back to my hometown of San Diego at the end of the month with family in tow. Hopefully I' ll be able to find a place to hunt hogs and deer somewhere in California. I' ll miss the whitetail deer in Ohio. Recently made the switch from recurve to longbow. Found a very nice Quillan Bamboo Longhunter. Not as fast or pretty as some of the other popular longbows, but it is still a sweet shooter, light in the hand, and spits the arrows out there with authority. I have to admit that I enjoy shooting longbows more then I did recurves. It was a just a matter of trying one.
Best Regards,
Jose
