I have always like Tomahawk longbows. After winning the elk hunt that "Elkherder" offered I started getting ready. Started getting in shape, and getting the bow& arrow set-up I will shoot all year till Elk season. Here's a few pictures.
Specs are 64" Diamond SS Stained bamboo back and yew belly. 55# @28" I draw 29" it really spits out the 630gr arrows I made up for the hunt.

Beautiful bow, I love that dark bamboo!! I hope the 10 months goes by quick for you, but you know it's gonna seem more like 10 years! ;) Good luck brother!!!

If the time in between elk seasons goes for you as it does me every year it will seem like an eternity :banghead:
Good luck on your hunt and that is one purdy elk killer.
Soak it all up, I live for the last two weeks of september

Tomahawks are sweet. Hoping for the weather to get better, so I can go out and shoot! :pray:
-
Sweet set-up bud, and isn't it nice to have something like a hunt to motivate you to get in shape....take it slow and you'll be an Elk hunting machine by next September...Good Luck :thumbsup:
-
Great looking bow!
These days, time goes by so fast, that maybe you better slow it down so you can have the anticipation longer.
When it does get here, I wish you all the best!

And who said 50 was old? We will cover alot of ground Larry.
-
this is very easy country to hunt dude....no steep hills just mild inclines for the most part.best hunting spot around imo.thats why i've hunted it for so long.
-
Yep, and plenty action :thumbsup: to boot!

I love woodies that are so simple, but look absolutely spectacular. One of those arrows took more devotion and effort than some people put in in a single day. I'd have a hard time shooting those my friend...unless I was face to face with a Rocky Mountain Elk...a work of art!
:archer:

Sweeeeeet! Tomahawk Mark. Nice arrows too. I think I see a another Tomahawk in my future too. Take the conditioning easy in the beginning and good luck on the the hunt.

Very nice, congrats on the Elk hunt!
-
I wish I had the nerve/ trust to hunt elk with a wood arrow.. My Carbons fly so perfect. 630gr with a sharp BH should be perfect. those woodies are some of the best cedar I have found in years. 8 of the 12 had no grain run off, real stright and finish at 600gr on the nose. I sure love making wood arrows. It's good on the soul. I know there are alot of you that would hunt elk with wood arrows and I respect you for it.
