Finished a couple primative arrows today.

Cedar shafts, novaculite points, turkey feathers over Ark. cotton mouth caps.  Hafted with dyed deer sinew.

Man they look the goods! Nice.

[Roy from Pa]

Congrats Red and very nice David.

Stripped and chopped turkey feathers last night for on my cane arrows.

Thanks, Roy.

I need to get a feather chopper. I usually trim with scissors using a stiff template. But a chopper would be much faster. I'd also like to build a feather burner like what I've seen posted.

[Roy from Pa]

Ya those choppers are slick... But burnt feathers stink:)

Darned addictive hobby.

took my first tri-lam off the form from last night's glue up. bamboo, elm, and osage.  pretty curves.  thread coming soon.  thanks Roy for the dimensions.  then i went and sat in the woods for two hours until sunset, no deer, but i did see a pretty epic bird migration.

Re-mailed by trade bow to goobersan. The top tip had to be replaced due to being broken during the first shipping.

I had to grind the old tip overlay off and replace, reshape, and refinish the tip. At least I had a few more times to shoot the bow once more.

It should be back to its new home by Friday. Maybe goobersan will be able to shoot it this time.

This bow is somthin special...Osage veneers spliced with Birdseye maple that has a quilted look.  - A Boo cores and topped off with an Osage riser...All wood came from Troy. Bow is in the oven and tomorrow  - Saturday morning I get to unwrap it and start shaping...

[Roy from Pa]

Nice Cameron..

[red hill]

Very nice, cunrushoot.
I put up a ladder stand this am. I'll hunt it in the afternoons after school.
There was too much wind blowing for me this morning.

[John Scifres]

I made a bow.  It is 52" total length. 1-1/8" wide.  Heat bent into a reflex-deflex shape and then sinew backed.  It's 57# at 27".  What do you think?  

[goobersan]

blends into the environment real well, John.    

[Roy from Pa]

I guess it's Ok:)
