Awesome
I love this book. I found that the author did a great job keeping things simple but very informative. I use this book all the time for reference or just to touch up on knowledge. I recommend this to anyone who loves archery.
What you need to know starting out !
i used the 1st edition to learn how to tune a traditional bow,everything you need to know is in this book.traditional archery is more than a stick and a string
NOT THE SAME AS 1ST EDITION
Even if you already have the 1st Edition, buy this one too! I bought this because my copy of Sam Fadala's 1st edition of Traditional Archery was becoming worn and yellow in the cab of my truck - I read it all the time when waiting. Sam's second edition was not what I expected. It's a completely different book! The entire text is re-written with updated info, new subject matter… read more and new photos. Well written and entertaining, it's a perfect follow-up to his first edition.
Great Book!!!
I got this book as a Christmas gift and it's a great book with heaps of good information. I will be reading it over and over again.
Awesome book
All around great book. This will be usefull to a veteran archer, or a rookie. The pictures help to further demonstrate everything that the author teaches you. The book also describes simple pratice methods that will make you a much better archer.
Excellent read!
This book is a great read for all levels. Easy to understand, informative, and very thorough. Pictures on every page to further describe, directions, websites, you name it. It's all in there!
Really helpful and an easy read!
This book was very helpful when I made the switch to Traditional Archery. Most of my local archery stores had no clue on the subject so I was able to get all the answers I was looking for with this one book. I would recommend this book to anyone looking into traditional archery.
I would suggest getting our DVD called Crafting Traditional Wood Arrows. http://www.3riversarchery.com/Books+DVD%27s+How-To+Crafting+Traditional+Wood+Arrows+DVD_c42_s33_p57_i5060-1_product.html
