Enjoying Art LaHa's Movie...

[Benny Nganabbarru]

I'm really enjoying Art LaHa's film on DVD, "No Land For The Timid", which arrived in the mail today from 3Rivers. I'm about halfway through, but it's too late to continue watching, and I need to sleep soon. So far, I've seen a lady bowhunter shoot a big moose with her recurve, and Art shoot a big brown bear with his bow (poor footage due to darkness I think, but still a magnificent record of history). There's also been a fair bit of rifle action, but at least they used thumpin' big calibres, which is something I get a kick out of. Anyway, it's a good film, but not for the squeemish. I highly recommend it.

You may not have heard of Art LaHa, but he was an old-time bowhunting legend.

I met Art back in the early 80's. Quite a guy, sure left an impression. According to many old hunters, he was the best. A few years back his wife and daughter still ran the "Bear's Den" in Winchester WI.
