Congratulations Roy!  Nice to have a retreat. I've been thinking about one in Antarctica. Nothing to burn there.

Congrats, Roy. That will be a great place to hide from the world and enjoy nature.

Nice, Roy.  😀

If I had a place like that I'd live there.   The wife would for sure disagree.  :biglaugh:

Mine too but living there has been out of the question.

Today I put field tips on this year's hunters.  Also numbered and weighed them.   These spine exactly as last year's but are a little lighter.  Need to get more field points and pick the six best for broadheads.

Working on redoing an old longbow of mine that I built 10 years ago or so. Working the pounds down from 55 down to 42 and new string grooves. Going small everything above the string is just along for the ride. These kind of tips aren't for rookies. They might hurt themselves when stringing. I won't. JF. JF

They used to be bigger hunkers zebra wood birds eye and walnut. Way too big, bigger than I normally build on my longbows. So this is what I come up with. 3/16 tan phenolic. JF

Doing some major house cleaning after getting the heater hung. I ran across two unfinished one piece curves.the one will be in the mid 30s. Not sure about the other one. Be willing send them to whoever you pay shipping.

I can finish one of those Bow blanks Mike. If they're not spoken for. Maybe the lighter pound one don't know what the other one is. JF
