kenny that is just ridiculous. how on earth am i supposed to follow that?!


going to work on getting my trade bow done up. its still at the semi-debarked almost topring'd stage... going to have to work out some way to hold the massive log that i have... might be time to go pick up some 2x12 and make a horse...


gonna look for all-wood shaving horse plans tomorrow , after my 8 hour round trip to buckhannon WV for a 10 minute auto warranty claim... yay...

Well, I gotta stop shooting my trade bow in before I ruin what few arrows I have left.  Here's some indoor shots from 15 yards today...I scared the nock off of one arrow    :scared:   I've got the handle contoured and am ready for final sanding, finish, etc.

Dang Kenny those numbers are very impressive!Even with -5 pounds for finger release thats still very fast in my book. 4east thats exactly why i always shoot at the nock of the first arrow i shoot.That way I know there is no chance of me hitting it! LOL! Nice work Fellas!

Now far as my trade bow it's been real crazy for me lately with spring chores,honey-do's and a father inlaw that got beat up pretty bad by a cow while calving. I have been working on a reducing down a couple juniper staves and shaped & back a board bow but just haven't had time to take some pic's and post them yet.
One of the juniper staves is dry enough to start on for ******* and I will save the board bow for a back up plan. If I finish putting back my kitchen I have been remodling I will post some pic's today.

I tried to get a few decent pics. I'm going to have to wait for better weather for the rest.

You all have some serious talent!  I'm enjoying seeing all of your work.  I'm going to have to dust off all my stuff and get back at it, thanks for the motivation.

Thanks guys, didja notice what an extra inch or 2 does for the numbers?

Folks should think about this when buying a bow they can't reach full draw with! LOL

Same speed with a lighter bow and more accuracy to boot!(Not that I shoot worth a crap)  :D
