Not just that, scroll to the bottom of this link and check out his hunting record. It is unmatched:

Well, I gave him the bow last night. It's all he can talk about. He absolutely loves it. This is the heaviest bow that he has shot so far and he is struggling a little. But by the end of the practice session he was doing pretty good. It has a lot more ummph then any bow that he has shooten so far. Only problem is with the string. It seems a little too short for the bow. The brace height max is 6 3/8, but I have almost all the twists out of the string and it is still at 6 5/8. I'll get another from Chad.

Wow!! I am sitting here in awe of Howards accomplishments. If I didn't know better, I would say this is all bull, But knowing him as much as I do........It is all real. I really, really appreciate you sharing this with me Bob.

My sincere thanks,
Lone "Larry" Wolf 1966

No problem Lone Wolf, it is amazing.

Drew 35,000 spectators in Grants Park, Chicago in 1941, where the crowd tore the shirt off his back, and took his arrows, bow and quiver as souvenirs.
Now there is something you don't see everyday.

What amazes me is that out of all those animals he took, I have him beat in Whitetails. That's about it though.

Remind me never to shoot with your kid, he would make me look like a fool, well no, I do that, he would make me look bad.

Good looking bow and even better shooting, dose he take after the old man, or dose he show you a thing or two on the range. Is he old enuf to hunt yet.

LOL. A lot of people that see him shoot think he is a natural (even Byron). He just switched to lefty a few months ago. Right now he is still struggling a little with the poundage of this bow but refuses to shoot his other bow. Except for maybe letting him know his elbow is too low, I try to keep my mouth shut and let him shoot and have fun. He loves being able to take a step back and shot at distances, especially at balloons. What he teaches/reminds me is the pure enjoyment of making a good shot.

It's kind of funny, he is one of the smallest in his class, however, he is the only one that can pull back his bow. He had one of his bigger (and I mean big) friends over the other day, and he looked like a complete weakling trying to pull Josh's bow back. I could see some real enjoyment in Josh's eyes.

I forgot to mention, we already have one of Chad's strings on the bow. Works great!
