A PVC bow is a good starting point and if he really shows interest then maybe a selfbow or backed bow for him later.
Make the most of all that comes and the least of all that goes!

One of my grandsons made a PVC himself when he was 10.  Did it by watching u tube.  Killed his first cottontail with it.

I'm going to be the kill-joy here. It's not a good thing to be heating PVC pipe to the point of plasticizing it. It starts releasing toxic fumes before combustion, including hydrogen chloride gas and dioxins. Very nasty.

5 of the Batesville Coffee Club Geezers will be on our way to Cody Wyoming Monday seeing the sites on the way, Devils tower, Mt. Rushmore and so on.
We will be back in about 10 to 14 days.
The weather there is cooler than here. :jumper:

Damn Keyang, your shop looks so clean and organized :thumbsup:

Sounds like a fun trip Max. I have not been there for years, but Cody was/is a nice town. Good Trout fishing around there. Good climbing also. Probably some Elk in those hills :bigsmyl:

Today we put in a bid on a different camp, the last camp we had money down on the owner backed out of the sale.

This camp is even more awesome than the last one.

It's at the dead end of a gravel/dirt mountain road that's all down hill off the main road with a sharp switchback turn:)

Well Rody , everything happens for a reason, sometimes it's hard to figure out why, but this one looks like an easy figure...

Looks good bro! :thumbsup:

This is too good not to share with you guys...  Roy leave it up for a day or two for everyone to see and then take it off or I will delete it...

An acquaintance said he always liked to make sure he was cleaning a couple guns on the kitchen table when his daughter brought a new BF home. He looked at it as a litmus test. The good ones weren't intimidated and the really good ones would talk guns or hunting with him for a while.

I have my doubts about the one pictured, tho...
