I took two bows just about alike. Both sinew backed osage and 60@26. Took three with one bow and the other two with the other.

What a great hunt and thanks for sharing but would hate to have that taxidermy bill.
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

What a great testimony for the strength and all around attributes of Douglas fir shafts by Surewood Shafts....and of course the great selfbows Mike crafts!....and shooting skills!
