I’ve got a copy on DVD.

I bought this video over 35 years ago and I still watch it from time to time.

I have a bent half dollar (Franklin half) that Howard Hill shot mid-air, which was tossed up by my father.

Wow! Yes he did it just like Howard Hill. And we should all be grateful to him for that, because he is passing the Torch of Howard Hill, and in the correct Howard Hill way. Thank you, Mr. John Shultz.

New to traditional archery. I went out today and followed his teaching and tried this. I immediately shot much much better!! Thanks for posting!!!

I and a friend shot with John shortly before his passing...what a wonderful privilege...RIP John

I shot my first deer with a Howard Hill bow in 1972. It is 69" and 70 # @ 28". The bow was made by John Schulz in 1968. I was 16 YO and the deer was running full speed and jumping an eight ft. ditch. The Hill broadhead went through the shoulder blade and cut his spine and imbedded in the right shoulder. I couldn't have done it with any other bow and arrows.

I've been shooting bad for years and have watched many videos where guys try to seek greatness in Howards footsteps, but if ya watch this and do like Mr Schultz says you can spot there mistakes and self glorification instantly, because they don't pay attention to what Mr. schultz is saying. Mr. Hill is perfection, Mr. Schultz shoots like Mr. Hill, what more can be said? After two days of trying to do exactly as Mr. Shultz tells it, which believe it or not is not that easy, I have improved 98%. From 3 0r 4 in a pie plate @ 25 yds to 8 out of 12 in jut 2 days. for me thats damn good.

Guess this probably wouldn't be on youtube if not for you... thx dude! It's a gem for folks like me who are getting into bowhunting

This is the best archery wideo

My dad got started in the 50s because of the Howard Hill shows. I almost ordered a Shulz bow in the 80s. Now, after a 6 year archery hiatus, have started to make my own wood laminated longbow.🌞👍 Good for the soul.

Thanks for doing this, it is only style I teach, newbies always want to take my copies home with them, most of the time they never return them. Now I can just show them this. I have had a number of long conversations with John over the years. A truly fine man.

Absolutely invaluable resource. I can't say enough how enjoyable this is to watch. I'm decent enough but always in awe when watching a master talk about a master and even showing us his little master bowman in action. It's a good one to show the kids 👍

Good to see this again, I used to have a vhs copy that I loaned and it never came back. Likely been 20+ years. Still a great video.

Wow , an oldie and so execellent . Makes good sense .

Thanks for sharing ! I have an older friend who owns a Shultz longbow from 1974 . He wont sell it at any price . I consider Myself lucky to have shot it !

I have been trying to find a copy of this video for ages. Thanks for doing this!

Thank you for sharing it with us 🙂🤍

this man said so many things that would make todays archery instructors cringe. But yet the man was an absolute master of his craft. His accuracy is just unmatched unless your HH himself. Now, how could this be? Its insane the way archery mechanics have been modified and perfected since this time. Listening to these vintage exhibition style shooters talk just completely takes the shot process ive had preached to me throughout my entire life and makes me question it.

The definitive instinct shooting/hunting style. Met John in Pa 28ish years ago. Have yet to see his equal in shooting ability. A true modern master of his sport and craft. His sons are awesome shots also as was demonstrated at the aforementioned Pa archery gathering.

I think this is my favorite part of information as an archery fan 21:13 so many people discuss about the nocking point, it is good to know how Howard Hill did it.

This video has been so instrumental to me in my traditional archery Journey

I always come back to watch this video when I need inspiration to practice archery or remember the basics. Thank you for sharing it!

He was such an inspiration !

Mr Schultz, I was blessed at one point in my life to own and shoot one of your bows. One of my biggest regrets in life was letting it go because I needed money.

Thank you for posting this! I had no idea who he was before this, ( or this existing) and his teaching of Hill’s style or form is impeccable! Wow!

My 2nd bow i owened was a John Shultz 4 lam myrtle wood handle gourgeous bow to look at bamboo 60lb won many a tournaments with it .I watch this on VSH till i wore the tape out ,contrbuted my style to both Howard Hill and John Shultz and pass the tecnique to my children and many of my students. Thnk you Howard and John and I know your both In heaven because you were both believers in Jesus Christ ,Shalom

This is a great find! Thanks for this.

After watching a lot of videos on the subject, this is the best description of the shot process that I have ever seen.

Thank you for posting this video from John Schulz. So informative.

Excellent video!

What a master of his trade.blown away by his teaching. I hope to take some this knowledge and improve my skills.thanks

Great video,thanks

Great advice . I;ll be practicing that .

One of the most enjoyable days I've spent in archery was spent with John a couple years before he passed. Even in his eighties, John could knock the eyes out a gnat. RIP John, you're respected and missed!

Thank you for putting this up! That was an informative 45 minutes. especially since I'm just getting into archery, nothing to unlearn to adopt this style! I'll never be hitting em like Howard but I bet I'll give the rabbit population hell

Thank you for sharing

Thank you.

Thanks a ton for this video

Yes I bought a 73 LB bow from him. Back in the 80's. It was 86 lbs. I sent it back to him..I had it weighed in my city . It exactly weighed 86 lbs. He never corrected it.

I wish i would have bought that green and yellow bamboo american longbow in that pawn shop in Great Falls it was a beautiful thing

This is a great video

Great! Thanks!

Superb.

awesome video to probably new and old shooters

Great vdo. I willgive this a try

Thank you. Very helpful. I was just given a recurve bow. I have been practicing. Ding ok. .just have one arrow I can't find. The rest made the mark.

Neat to see real archers

This is fascinating and valuable, thank you very much for uploading. As I surf the net and learn about traditional archery, etc, I do think that a lot of the info in here is outdated, and much of the wisdom and great practises of ancient forms of archery have been unveiled and made more public knowledge, and are superior to some of the practises of Howard Hill as shown here (much faster ways of nocking and handling arrows have been found, for example). Nevertheless, fascinating video and information, and great to hear of these famous figures I knew nothing about previously! Many thanks.

Super cool!, I know now what I'm going to do later today ; )

Quality of your upload seems a lot better than the 4 part uploads prevously done by other people

Interesting 👍

This is one of my sources for learning the bow.

13:50 I do the same thing though going downward with the bow due in part to my small size and I go to either below the Ear where the lobe would be if ear was that low and thumb is at the jaw corner or to the Corner of jaw depending on the bow length and poundage. 20:00 I try to do this for my bow since the rest is waisted movement in shooing quicker, if it does not work then sometimes I grip the arrow if they do not want to draw back However I let gravity take the arrow down since I pull downward with the bow due to my size and adult bows dragging on the ground if going the other way. I do more a Drop Draw but in similar fashion. 28:25 I also have done my entire bow shooing life the dual arrow and target/animal style when the bow is sans a sight of any kind. Sight I use the sight and the arrow, making sure the arrow is still tracking correct in the edge of sight.

I was wondering if tom is still around and whether he still shoots or not.

Have to say, and no disrespect to the bowmen involved as the advice is great, but, the video production is _classic_ - those outfits, the slightly awkward hesitations, the syncronised turns to the camera... It's like a parody of itself... Like a scene from a Wes Anderson film. :-) Thanks for uploading.

Awesome video! And what a beautiful bow he's using! Funny how techniques and ideas change but the bottom line is did you hit what you were aiming at?

There was a vcr, that said that was African safari if that is in a DVD or other movies in DVD of items that Howard Hill and events have I would really like to know what is available

He makes it looks easy but nobody can shoot like that

Did he write a book

These guys didn't worry about 3-under gap shooting or FOC or max arrow velocity or any of that stuff. They shot in a natural, comfortable way and were quick, smooth, and fluid and accurate too. It worked well for them back then and it works well today. You have to practice. If you don't like shooting enough to practice frequently then just get a compound bow and go shoot golf balls at 60 yards.

Yeah it's weird... there is a lof of talk about technique from most archers here on KZread but none talking about actually practicing and how much time you might want to spend. When I first got into pistol shooting I was not "good" until I put at least 5000 rounds down range. Now that costs a lot of money and time. Being that archery is significantly more difficult I imagine it's going to be double or triple... no one talks about shooting 15,000 arrows.

Better without the music.not needed.

Baiting animals with food, climing onto a tree and waiting for animals to come and eat to kill them, that is a killer not a hunter. A hunter kills because of need not for fun. Sadly because of rich bastards and corrupt who drove to extinction so many animals. In so many countries hunting is banned. Mostly because there isn't anything to hunt anymore. So sad... I love bows and arrows, i've played with them since i was a kid. Never hunted animals with it because i never had to. I am simply too "soft" to end another life. I lived on the country side for a while as a kid. The forest was 200 meters away from my house, a deep tall forest. In the morning you could see on rare ocasions a deer with her little ones coming out from the forest just a little bit to enjoy the sun. 200 meters away if you tap a pice of wood just slightly, she could hear you, i was really amaized by what a hearing that animal has... If i was starving, not even then i could kill one... Plus that, is pretty hard to die of hunger near a forrest like that.

The local butcher's meat is only reliable if it's in the countryside somewhere and he buys it from trusted local farmers. Organic stores in cities take you for a fool any day with their products.
