I usually decide that about 3 days before I go. Every time I think I found one, I build 3 more! I do have a leading contender that seems to be lingering since its conception.

This is one I plan on hunting this fall, "Lil Thumper". She's 56" t/t, 56#@26" with Texas Diamondback water snake over 2 layers of cow sinew. I'll probably be shooting poplar arrows or maybe hill cane with stone or trade points.

Yeh, I reckon that ought do ok, Pat B.

4dog, careful hunting in copperhead country with that bow.  You might lay it down and pick up something a little more whip tillered by mistake!

I was hunting GA with a copperhead skin backed bow years ago and got run out of my treestand by a brown thrasher...two evenings in a row. Walking back to camp the second evening I realized it was the copperhead the brown thrasher was after, not me.  ;D

Probably this one. Won't know for sure until the time comes.

  I'm rotating between two bows this season, maybe one will draw a kill...

  Any body recognize the 1st bow and who made it?

You got that right,

Haha so is mine :D

If you're going to master the piano, you don't play mary had a little lamb, you play Beethoven. I figure it's the same with bows, luckily we have a lot of masters around here to study :D
