Parnell, those prints Chuck is holding in the picture are from Bohning Archery. Chuck bought the fiberglass bow kit with the fire hose form. It does kinda look like a bridge in the drawing :)

Ha Ha!  Thats exactly what I'd thought...
Thanks for clarifying Will.

Glad you enjoy nclonghunter,and yes we do have a good time. :) Friday for me,I am off tomorrow and headed to the cabin this evening then North at daylight in the morning to Cloverdale IN. for the weekend Traditional Nationals. It should be fun for sure and get to do some visting and maybe even some shooting. Meeting Rocky and his bunch from MI.,several from here on PA [Clint/Tracy/Cody]probably others and a few from TwinOaks I am sure, so you know it will be interesting to say the least. ;) :) Hope yall have a good one,I will have some pictures of the lead up to and the weekend Monday. life is Good. ;) :)

The one in the fore front looks like a red oak. If any are hickory, I think it is against the law to cut one of those into firewood without cutting the straight sections into bow staves first. :)

Yep,all Oak Eric. :) Had a great time,just about the time I get there I get theses pictures,I told Michael I would love to help but 5 hours away,they made a good start on the clean up. Thanks Michael and Bobby. :) Cloverdale was a lot of fun,very laid back,shot a lot and ate like kings.Rocky and crew's bus made the trip a very easy one for us,thanks a bunch guys. Had a bad start so I needed to get away. 2 bows broke in 15 minutes Thursday evening,curly Osage and old/old IW.
glad to be done with them 2 had a feeling that is the way it was going to go. :-\
Pictures of the fun. GregB still at his knife work. Osage at brace,just before the blow up. ;) :) It was looking so good. ;) :) :)

First one ,then another, Brat wood now. ;) I did salvage one limb on the Osage and saved the take down handle on the IW,don't think I will ever be able to get it off but saved it just the same. ;) :)
