100yr fencepost bow makes MEAT!!
Will H:
Well I finally did it! Perfect 25yd double lung shot on this little doe! I recently got access to a great little property in Montgomery Co. thats covered up in deer, on my second hunt I scored. :) I want to thank SAWFILER for the point used, and Pearl Drums for the arrow shaft. They were a deadly combination!! She didnt go far, and as you can see the stone point really did a number on her. I had three does come in on me bout an hour before dark, this one happened to stop to feed in just the right spot. I had one little opening through the trees (right where Im pointing in the pic) she put her head down and her leg forward. I pulled up and shot all in one motion, the rest is history. I field dressed her with a flint flake and even felt compelled to take a bite out of the heart. MAN what a great day in the woods!! Like Pappy says "LIFE IS GOOD" :) :) :)

Well that's just awesome Will! Congrats, I have not shot one yet, hoping to get out again this weekend. That's pretty amazing that a piece of wood that old can still make some meat.

Very nice!! Great shot!! Really like the stone and bow!!!
Looked at a hedge post the other day at worked and wondered??? It was a really crappy looking post!!LOL
Will H:
Thanks you guys! Iowell, if that post is osage the wood is probably still good no matter how ugly it is. I made this bow from a thick osage post that found. It looked like crap on the outside but I was still able to sister billets from it. Some of the hardest best working osage Ive ever had. Anyway, good luck this weekend Dave!
