I would like to know how to "aim" a primitive longbow. I own four handmade "Taylor Made" (Lanny Taylor) longbows. One is a 73 lb laminated longbow, one is a 45 lb Osage Orange longbow, another is a 48 lb composite Hickory, bamboo longbow, and the last is a 48 lb fiberglass & wood longbow. I shoot target archery with a Hoyt re-curve bow and Carbon Express arrows. I shoot Lanny's longbows with Cedar field arrows. I would like some ideas on how to hold, and shoot a longbow...I have only been shooting primitive for three months, and I love it! I have always had a love for the longbow, and medieval archery. My sister owns 25 a. of land in Paradice Vally Montana, north of Yellowstone park on the Yellowstone river, and I work in Idaho with pyrotechnics...so I want to do some primitive bow hunting. I rifle hunt with flint rifles, and my longest shot on a deer was 16 yards...so I think I can hit one with a bow.
