Title: Longbow Build-a-Long Bow... Makes Meat
Post by: Hatrick on November 26, 2008, 09:52:00 PM
For those who followed my Longbow Build-a-Long thread that I started October 29, here's a picture of some hunting success with that bow. I shot this doe tonight at 5:05 on local public ground. She took off like a rocket and piled quick up at 70 yards. Shaving sharp Ribtek on the business end of a 1916 left a nice exit hole just behind the shoulder.

Sorry for the poor picture but it was dark by the time I got it home. At least I could have smiled  :D

Congratulations, Hatrick.  That is a fine way to chrissen your homemade bow.  I just got in from cutting up a buck and doe my kids shot last weekend in the youth hunt.  I know the work you have facing you.
