Africa Prep
« on: March 25, 2007, 02:43:00 PM »
Half the fun of a out of state hunt is in the preparation. My new Autumn oak riser is complete. The 74# limbs have been recut and are waiting for Rattler to send the Copper head skins. Plane tickets are bought. I spent last night building more arrows. The yellow feathers have 3 grain per inch weight tubes and will be used for the 74# bow. The white feathers are not weighted and will be used with the 66# bow. Thanks to Scott and Mindy for making the 9" custom LSBA wraps they look great.

Ah, the prep before a big hunt. Nothing else like it in the world. Good luck, Buff...  :thumbsup:

Wow! If you get to shoot half of those arrows, you'll be having a great time. Well, even if you don't I'm sure you will have fun. Best of luck, be safe. We will be waiting for pics.
