Got my HHB shooting updated with finished pictures
« on: June 17, 2016, 01:08:48 pm »
I got my HHB Ironwood bow shooting last night. She still needs to get fancied up and cleaned up maybe a little tiller yet but she shoots real nice. Seems really fast and smooth. Bottom limb had natural reflex Pearl helped me put some more reflex in top limb at Marshall. 64" n-n didn't really didn't get weight yet I'm guessing around 59 @ 25" that's my draw and the weight is perfect for me. I got some snake skins but I might shoot her naked for awhile I like the 4 knots bulging out of top limb. Like to get some cow horn for tip overlays got some connections should be able to find some. As you can see I'm outstanding in my field. Those are Navy bean's probably end up in a Bush's Bean can.

Looks good BJ! I will have to remember to buy Bush' beans so I can support your farm.

Well, if I find fletching in my can of beans, I will know why....and WHO!

If I had enough coffee in me to be awake, I would be coming up with some name for your bow that includes beans, gas, or some such.  But it's already hot here and coffee has lost its appeal.  I will just tell ya there ain't nothing wrong with yer bow, nekkid or not!

Nice looking bow BJ.   I avoid beans for obvious reasons.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

Guess this means there's good chance the hhb stave I got from you will make a fine bow. It's all up to me now!
Looks good, bj.

Dang it!  Now I want to work on the HHB stave I got from you too!  ...but I have others that have been waiting for my oh so limited attention span longer.  Yours looks real nice BJ.  Soon HHB.  ...very soon!

Probably have to let the ones you guys got from me cure for awhile they where just cut about a week before Marshall. I started roughing one out for my daughter in law today probably take it to a heavy floor tiller over next week or so and then let it sit a good while. Think you'll like it sure hope so.

Thanks guys the pictures aren't the greatest my brother took them and he must not have wanted to get his shoes dirty. Thought you guys might like that old farmer joke.
