Jamie,  In addition to the whisperstik voodoo and hopefully the Big river, I will bring my two antique bows.  They will not be shot but maybe someone will know who can fix them.

Bear 1956ish
Custom by Corky Late 50's made in Cali.

They were stored poorly and need some tip work done.

This is gonna be good.
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Either Mike Robin(Bamboo) or Jeremy Should be able to fix them.(right off the top of my head)

Probly a few other basement bowyers coming that would be able to also.
I only shoot WOOD arrows... My kid makes them, fast as I can break them!

There is a fine line between Hunting, & Sitting there looking Stupid...

May The Great Spirit Guide Your Arrows..... Happy Hunting!!!

Hey Michael... I like the Ace Hex Head. It has a cookie cutter tip and does the job on tree rats and bunnies real well. Judos are nice for stumpin' but tend to get hung up on the brush (what they are designed for) when hunting bunnies it the "stuff" that they hide in.

All the points mentioned will work. Actually, any field point can be turned into a bunny buster with the addition of a small washer behind it.
I prefer the regular blunts, as they are cheap, go through the brush with less hang ups, and hit pretty hard.

In past years, people have come up with some down right wicked heads with stuff from the local hardware store and blunts or field points.

They all are fun to fling at em.

Can I Be The Special Guest?  ;)  Please!

So I don't have to shoot at the steel target cause I only have 300 arrows left at home.  :rolleyes:

Almost be an important somebody and not get stuck dragin' EVERYONES bunnies all over Selkirk!  :p

Maybe get to use the Porta-Potty without somebody pushin' it over ... :eek:  ... Again!

Most of all, for Shawn not to mistake me for one of the kids and allow me to drink something stronger than hot chocolate!  :D

There will be one, but no need for money this time. He gets there all by himself, every year. This one is taking extra work to accomadate extra people but maybe not right now we have about 60 that I have heard from, last year 96. Looking good, warm Sunday at 1pm.my house!! OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!! Shawn

I'll most likely bring a G-L Mantis,Kabekona and a JLMBH 09'Deiters BBO that I won Last year.

Why not just leave the 38 casings full and put them on the right way.  :scared:  Probably wouldn't have to chase so many bunnies into the bushes.      :bigsmyl:
