PowWow / Re: 1816 or 1916

Quote from: Coach Jones on February 01, 2026, 08:57:16 PMCurrently shooting 700 Dark Timbers cut 30 inches with 250 up front from my 38@28 Kanati longbow.  I draw 27.5 inches and shooting a B55 string.  I really wanted to pick up some 1916 Autumn Orange shafts to fletch up.  Do you think if I leave the 1916's at 30 inches that they will shoot out of my bow or do I need an 1816 shaft?  Really wanted orange.
Why the B55 string? That bow should be FF compatible, and using FF string will make a significant difference in arrow spine.  :dunno:  :dunno:

I'm probably due for a new American Leather glove. It's the only brand of glove I've used for years now.

Made so well I didn't even realize there was some kind of insert in my kangaroo glove til I looked now.

I shoot 45#, 50#, and 55# bows. If I had to choose, I guess I'd get a kangaroo again, but nothing wrong with the standard crossover either.

I think the Crossover was the only one I bought new. I picked up the other two as barely used. Is it worth rebuilding them or just buy a new one? I got my moneys worth out of all of em for sure.

That really sucks Terry, you kept me on the waiting list for a couple years for this hunt and I really appreciate it!!! I am at a point that I am seeing the light of retirement coming by this spring and am still hoping to make one of these hunts.  I hope you can put something together again!!!  Good luck to all those still hunting!! Waiting to hear some stories and see some pictures.  :campfire:  :coffee:  :campfire:  :coffee:

PowWow / Re: 1993 Caribou Adventure!

I appreciate the comments fellows! You have to keep in mind that 30 years ago the world was a great deal bigger...not yet being shrunk down by the ease of available information from the internet. I think the basis of the true meaning of an adventure is created through the element of exploration and surprise.

When I wrote this story many, many years ago, I was enamored with the thrill of adventure and discovery moreso than releasing the arrow and packing antlers home. Like many things in my distant past, my thoughts are somewhat dated to the time it happened.

The story may be a bit dated; but the thrill of the hunt and the memories seem like it happened just yesterday. I will release another segment tomorrw with additional pictures from 33 years ago.

I hope some of you enjoy the ride.

I have been on date night with this guy every night since I've been here. I gave him a flesh wound Sunday and shot under him (light went dim and it was all silhouette in the full moon) last night.

Quote from: S_Sharp on Today at 04:15:31 PMSeems I can't figure how to copy a photo. I have two Northern Mist bows that I got from Steve when I visited his shop in December 2019. The American is 68", black glass, all bamboo. The sprague is 66", yew veneers, maple core, and I think rosewood handle. Both are beautiful and are shooters. But I will never part with that sprague.
Shawn, You don't copy and paste photos to display them - click on the message Click or drag files here to attach them. at the bottom of the message box where you type your text.  Then select the photo you want from the files/folders on your computer.
What is the weight on your American longbow?
