Traditional Bows Drawn
« on: February 20, 2009, 10:06:00 AM »
Just wanted to let all (old, new, and in-be-tween - LOL) know that I just finished off Page 19 and started off Page 20 of the TBD pages on my personal web site (non-commercial). Also that I started off that (unheard of) Page 20 with two rather different and interesting Full Draw pics.

(19 full pages of 60 thumnails and connected larger pics - that 1140, +2 LOL, Full Draw pics of beautiful traditional bows, BTW)

Check 'em out, if you haven't (or haven't visited in a while) - just click on the TBD listing in the menu.

See? I'm still alive 'n kickin'      :goldtooth:

Thanks, Tom - remember me to all the good supporters of the bunny hunt.

How about that, fido dog, one never knows who they'll see there that they know -   :biglaugh:

Bernie, did you ever get Hollyween finished. I havn't seen the thread in a while and was really hoping to see that stick turn into a bow.

There you are!
Thanks for the heads-up on your webpages. I hadn't seen that pic of what a 90+ pound bow does to motivate your back muscles. My back muscles took one look and did this:   :wavey:
Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

"Thanks," to those who post and those who don't. I had 325 hits on my site yesterday (normally 7 or 8 per day) so thanks to all who ventured into the twilight zone -     ;)    

razorback, - this seems to be my winter to sort of fall apart (nothing too drastic - yet) so "Hollyween" is  "pending" in the back room, along with a couple of nice staves (Wild Cherry and Osage). The Holly sapling is looking pretty good and i still plan to finish it (and the thread) when i get my butt in gear. Been doing a lot of reading (9 volume, and another 3 vol, series by Jack Whyte, about "days of yore"     :D    )

Killie, how about that - I think just the act of posting those pictures of the back muscles in Full Draw had some bearing on my physical deterioration - or was that mental     :archer:    

Thanks again, all!

Hey Bernie thanks for bringing this back up again.  I had forgot about it.  Great pics.  I enjoyed looking it over again.

Hey Bernie.  You can count me for at least a couple of those hits.   :D

Ashamedly (and apologetically) I must admit that I can't recall (right now), Tom, who it might be but I appreciate his enquiry in any case. Oh, wait - I may recall - if it is the one I'm thinking of, I gave his son a fleece, camo hunting hat I won in a raffle my first year at ATAR - about 5 or 6 years back. I see them once in a while but didn't last year.
