Right on Target May 9, 2008
Another five-star review for this book might seem a little redundant, but it's earned it. Don't be misled by its size; it's only 120 pages long, but it's PACKED with concentrated, clearly-written, QUALITY information. After wasting WAY too many bucks on books with rambling, unorganized writing and shoddy illustration, this book gets a place of honor on my shelf. It should set the standard for "how-to" books on outdoor sports.
(Just a quick correction, by the way: the author's first name is Lon, not Lou.)
One very mild criticism: there are a few too many photographs of Lon grinning next to his trophies, but what the heck - it's his book, after all...
Rookie or Veteran this book is a great read. September 7, 2007
I'm 51 years old and I wish I had this info about 35 years ago. Lou does a fine job of getting to the point of what makes the difference between being an average Joe bowhunter and a clean hitting one. I really found his finer tips excellent, that is what I was missing, and he dispelled many of the wives-tales about some items too. One item/tip in particular I hadn't thought about much was belt type straps verse Velcro for my release and also how to measure and set the proper release head position. Bottom line every serious and not so serious bowhunter would benefit by reading this book. I say well done to Lou for his fine and easy to read book.
 A must have for serious archers July 23, 2007
This book covers about everything an archer needs to know in order to become a better archer. I'm sure it will be an important reference for me from this point forward. The author is a bit of a purist and takes things to an extreme that not many archers will go to. But the information is there if you want it. I do wish that he would have dealt more with how to overcome target panic though.
Very good for learning the basics March 26, 2007

I recently purchased a hunting bow. I read another book first, to cover the basics. I could have probably done that with this book as well. However, Lou goes a step further and shares his rigorous method of perfecting shooting technique as well as tuning the bow and arrows. I think I got a good theoretical foundation to reach the next level. I highly recommend this book to any beginner.
Great Book! November 18, 2006

If you are serious about bow hunting, BUY THIS BOOK. It won't let you down, unless you own your own bow shop and even at that it would be a great reference. It is totally gear toward hunting and will make you a better shot when that moment of truth arises.
