Mullberry the stickers were for fun, but the PBR cuzy proved to be a great handle wrap, Who new?!

James Rempp of Montana, 'Hamstring' black locust selfbow, backed in green silk with amazing prairie rattler skin over the top.  Bow is named "Road Rash" because snake was a big bruiser who was a highway kill.  Bow is unique also in having one sheep horn tip and one elk antler tip which gives each end of the bow a different 'live rattler' look.  60" 55@27  in a plains flatbow style with slight r/d and slight stringfollow.  Fast shooter and silent.

How the heck do the arrows go straight with some of these neat looking bows that are crooked? I sure like the looks of all the bows showing.

I took the boys rabbit hunting a couple years ago. The bow on left is my Arvin Weaver, the other 2 Arvin watched over me while I made them. Tod, my youngest son still shoots his selfbow over any other bows... Thanks Arvin & Deb   :)
