Hey Pappy looks like a great weekend. That snake bow looks like it could crawl off under it's own power looks great. Has it ever ocured to you that you might have too many knives? Ronnie

Love the pics Pappy. Sure makes me wish I was back there. On a crazy note I worked three hides over the weekend as well. However I didn't have as much help as you did.

Ahh, looks a the typical great weekend at the club!
Pappy, I'd like to have seen that buck in a couple years...but I reckon he served his purpose and put a smile on a youngun's face. And that's good enough for me.

Makes me smile to see you guys brain tanning

Im very proud of how far yall have come with that. Im sure through the good people at twin oaks that skill will be passed on to many.
Hawaii is beutifull! Im still house hunting.
Been spear fishing on the coral reefs. its like underwater bow hunting (spot and stalk) aiming the spear gun it a lot like shooting a bow *sorta.
I texted Will some pics maybe he could post erm here.

Good to here from you Jesse, You been in my thoughts.

Ya Shannon thats what I thought, it had 2 more small points coming out at the front at the eye guards,now that would have been cool if the kept growing and got large.

I got him skinned/boned and the hide fleshed and in the freezer last night last night.

Ya Jesse speaking of tanning,wished you hadn't got me into that,

thats all I think about,I just love doing it for some odd reason.I got another scrapped yesterday and 1 almost finished.I put them all under the roof until the rain stops.Planning on racking 5 more in the next week or so.THEIR IS NO END.

I just can't seem to stop.

I did take time out to put the first coat of sealer on my snake bow and feed bubba.

Pappy your a hard working man! I just dropped off my daughter at the Nashville Airport. Driving over to Allen Corns house to spend the morning watching him work on bows. I should really tan that deer raw hide piece I have rolled up in your cabin.

See ya soon.
