Title: Killed one with a Pearly bow
Post by: osage outlaw on November 12, 2018, 11:32:11 am
I shot this deer yesterday evening.  The arrow showed signs that I hit it farther back than I wanted to.  I decided to wait until morning to look for it.  I saw it heading down a mowed trail along a field.  It was below freezing last night so I knew the meat would still be good.  I was worried about the coyotes finding it though.  I almost went to look for it at 11:00 pm last night but talked myself out of it.  This morning I waited until my Dad was done hunting before I headed out.  It took me about 5 minutes to find the deer.  It had only went 75 yards from where I shot it.  It stayed on our trail the entire time.  Waiting until morning was the right thing to do. 

I was using a bamboo backed yew bow that Pearl Drums made.  I traded for it at the Marshall shoot last year.  The Cliff Zwickey broadhead got the job done on a less than perfect shot. 

Thanks for the bow Pearly!  (SH)

Nice bow but I love the hat Clint. Just kidding. Nice use of a trade bow. I've been really seriously thinking of hunting with a couple of mine to. I think that's really cool and much better than just hanging them on the wall. I shoot mine from time to time and have let others to, but up until now I've always wanted to hunt with mine. Now I'm starting to rethink that. I'm sure Pearl is honored.

PS I do love the hat

Thanks guys.  I was very happy to get one with an official Pear Drums bow.  Someone has to show him that his bows can kill  ;D   

That hat looks better with a vintage Bear bow  ;)

I've been pulling the string back a little farther.  It couldn't have been to short of a draw.  It was a clean pass through and the arrow was stuck in the dirt.

I really like that hat.  I think you guys are just jealous  ;D


As far as the trade value of the bow, I'll let that stay between me and Pearly  ;)     I will say that I've held some selfbows with $1200-$1400 price tags on them and I would much rather have a bow that Pearly built.

I edited it to correct for your sticky period key, Brother Pearl.  No need to thank me, my pleasure, sir.

Clint, feel free to post a detailed photo or two of the bow in question.  I have been thinking I wanna do up one with that general recipe.

C'mn on, guys!   >:D coin of the realm is not a proper trade medium!  Maybe a hand forged blade with no handle, or an ermine hide! (lol)! (lol)!  I still like the hat!  Fashion war on!

OO. You are the king of the trade. I am so jealous of you guys. I am just glad the PA web site allows me to feel a part of this world of Primitive Archery. The hope of meeting all of you and getting to Twin Oaks for the Classic before old age catches up with me is what keeps shooting and hunting with the stick and string. Congrats on a great hunt, OO and all of you, enjoy your time afield.
