Primitive Skills / Re: Life is good
« Last post by Pappy on Today at 09:36:14 am »Thanks Pat/BJ. Ya Pat Jimmy has been going through some life things and I think got off the health kick he was on, haven't seen him in a long while until lately, hanging out is seeming to help so glad he is back and getting things together. BJ the bear steaks were great, I have heard some say bear wasn't good but to me it is about the best meat I have eaten. We don't have many Bob Cats here either, this one my buddy killed last season just NE of us 20/30 miles. I have been seeing a few around over the last few years but not a lot, The Red fox is making a come back though, use to have a bunch of them when I was young ,until the Coyotes came in, but they must have figured out how to avoid the Yots and seeing more and more of them last few years, rather have them than Coyotes that's for sure.

Bows / Re: Strongly reflexed bow turning inside out!
« Last post by Pappy on Today at 09:22:39 am »I hear ya, that's why I hardly every scrape with string on or braced, maybe a little toward the end of the process but not during the main tillering.

« Last post by bjrogg on Today at 09:09:52 am »Those bear steaks do look delicious. The skulls turned out great. I don’t have a Bob cat skull yet. None around here yet. A few years ago a single one passed through and raided the neighbors geese pen. The DNR relocated it a little further north.
Hope the shoulder surgery goes well Pappy.

Around the Campfire / Re: Annual Give Away Prize Pot
« Last post by bjrogg on Today at 09:02:47 am »Sleek it seems like you have a few bows already.
I would like to donate a flint knife. Would you like it for this drawing, or would you prefer to start some prizes for next year?
Bjrogg
PS there’s at least one of those poster covers that I like Pat . My article about my second selfbow buck is in the one. “All in a Days Work”
