Greetings from Black Widow!<br />
As we look back on 2014, we had some great memories of hunting. The Black Widow Bear<br />
Hunt was as good as it gets. There were lots of bears seen and our buddies Roger Ramirez,<br />
Kent Zocher, Michael Mayfield, and Jim Calamaris aka Uncle Jim (as well as Roger Fulton),<br />
all managed to get a bear with their traditional bows. Uncle Jim walked away with a new<br />
PL longbow that he received for getting the biggest bear, which weighed in at 260 pounds.<br />
We will be making another trip to Maine this fall 2015 for another bear hunt to see who can<br />
come home with a new Black Widow Bow. We might even eat a few lobsters! If you would<br />
like to join us on a great bear hunt, get in touch with Tony Boucher at Squapan Mountain<br />
Outfitters in Mapleton, Me. His website is Squapan.Homestead.com or you can email Tony<br />
or his wife Lynn at twb.lmb@atiwi.com or give them a call at (207) 764-7844. Give myself or<br />
Roger a call and we can get you details of the hunt also.<br />
We are introducing some spliced limb veneers for 2015 (see opposite page). You can find<br />
photos of bows with spliced veneers on our website. If you have any questions, please give<br />
us a call as there are many options available.<br />
We hope everyone has a great 2015 and if you’ve never been hunting or just shooting with<br />
friends with a Traditional Bow I hope you will give it a try. There’s no better feeling than<br />
your first traditional harvest and I hope you will let us be a part of your experience with traditional<br />
archery.<br />
Have a great year and Shoot Straight,<br />
Toby Essick, Roger Fulton, and John Clayman<br />
“May the good LORD be your Outfitter and Guide;<br />
May HE cause you to always shoot straight;<br />
And may the trophies you pursue be worthy of the Book.”<br />

Fellow Bowhunters,<br />
We all want to be the best we can be<br />
when it comes to hunting with the bow and<br />
arrow. Bowhunting is a great and challenging<br />
endeavor and probably only a few<br />
people ever reach their maximum potential.<br />
Which, in many ways is unfortunate. Not just<br />
because it means you’ll be less successful,<br />
but also because maximizing your potential<br />
means understanding and becoming a part of<br />
the great outdoor world into which bowhunting<br />
takes us. And, for many of us, turns bowhunting<br />
into a life altering experience.<br />
But, in the end, the concrete purpose of this<br />
workshop is to make you a better bowhunter.<br />
If you truly believe you can become a better<br />
bowhunter, this is the experience for you. If<br />
you want to know you can trust your equipment,<br />
know you can trust your instincts and<br />
make that killing shot time after time, you<br />
need to come join us.<br />
