A method for causing a drill string to progressively deflect at preselected length intervals in proportion to the rate of flow therethrough allowing the drill string to follow a resulting curved well bore is described. The drill string utilizes a plurality of axially spaced deflection subs each of which responds to preselected manipulations of the rate of fluid flow therethrough to deflect its center line. Flow control signals at the surface describe when the deflection of particular subs become activated.
