Title: first bow in two years...
Post by: bowmo on October 06, 2010, 01:29:16 am

Well, I haven't made a bow in quite some time (at least for me) and a buddy of mine has been asking me to make him a bow for quite awhile, and now that I'm done with college I actually had a chance to make him one. 60 at 26. Pretty much just what he asked for. Nice piece of wood, I'm into the red streak that runs through it.

Very nice job. Arrows with stone points and sinew too.  That set should be mounted on a wall.

Post by: Lombard on October 09, 2010, 10:04:00 am

Very nice to be sure. Rather than see those arrows collecting dust on a wall, I'd prefer seeing them sticking right in the boiler maker on some food.

Thanks guys.

Lombard, I agree. Real cane, real feathers, real stone, real sinew, real pitch. Real pretty, but real deadly.
