5 Year Bow..............
« on: May 18, 2008, 09:14:00 AM »
Bout, 5 years ago, Allan and I agreed to make each other our style bows, in 3 years.  Allan makes these awsome recurves and I basically make sinew backed snaky sticks.

I had two nice osage logs, gave him one and kept one and........................

WOW, 3 years goes fast.  Well, it's been 5 years now, I picked up my new osage selfbow recurve and he got his sinew backed stick.

The recurve is my primary bow now.  It is FINE...........first shot ever shot, in the kill.  Now I find myself, posting again on Tradgang, started building arrows for my son and I, ordered some feathers, and late last night, I layed out an osage holmgaard that I have been wanting to make for years.

My wife Caren asked "you back into building bows and arrows? That's good."  Think I'm getting the BB4 for fathers day.

Oh yeh.........
Can't cheat the mountain,
Mountain got it.

Sounds like it was worth the wait. Hap
