Ozbow

Sun Set on the Western Coast (of the Exmouth peninsular). If you look carefully there is some iconic ballon fishing going on toward the left part of the picture. All taken from our trip up north.

i am in Perth, W.A... I guess my original post was a little hazy sorry.... i dont know if i want to get another samick, i guess just to test the market really...

mmm the Bob Lee is really nice but unfortunately i cant really spend that much i had a feeling the price bracket would be an issue

Gday guys, been about five months since i got my first trad bow, 50# Samick Talon which is quiet a nice bow and has served me quiet well, even taken it out hunting though to no avail (which was abundance (or lack there of) related). Anyway i was looking at perhaps stepping up a bit although as a lef...

Gday Mububban, (thats a fun one to say!) I dont know if it works the same but my mate whose a cabinet maker is supplied by Colli and Sons in Malaga. " Colli & Sons-Malaga Telephone: (08) 9249-2699 " http://perth.citysearch.com.au/E/V/PERTH/0015/96/13/1.html They do a bit of local and i...

It is a great knife mate! But ill have you know that anyone on the property at that time pretty much have a bald spot on their leg... though mine may be biggest .

Champion effort mate!

vaughn

Whoa! thats.... well that would be a pain i mean, of often wake up and laugh the feeling just because its so odd but now i think I might approach my future temporary amputations with a bit more concern....
Hope it improves soon Moreton.

Vaughn

Whoah! Thats really nice Kim.... I'd love to be able to do that, looks absolutely fantastic, keep them coming, you do seem to have the best projects!

Vaughn

Heh, good to see i wasnt the only one visited by a big man that quiet obviously knew where he was going (though getting home may have been difficult) Mmm well I am hoping this wont be helpful to just me, I am pretty sure I can work the software its just sourcing a good topo map or a good map in gene...

Gday all, A big HO HO Ho and merry Christmas all around! hope the big fella got you all some great stuff :wink: . I received an eXplorist 210 and it, at the moment does enough i guess to ensure i dont get lost, for example tracking and what not. I was just wondering on how much any of you know about...

Sorry about the late finish guys, been working quiet a bit leading up to christmas (with more to come ) but here is how it ended.

Cheers,
Vaughn

Really Nice knife Carlos! not a bad job for a couple of newbies hey!
Love the scabbard man, you will have to teach me how you did it! Great on man.... keep us posted if you are making and more and if you get any more saw blades.

After working on it further both yesterday and today with my mate carl (whom is also making his own 8) ) we worked the scales and well the pics below show the fruits of our labour, i used jarrah for the scales. I used brass screws for my pins, the thread aides in the holding together and i just grou...

Gday all, after finding myself with some spare time after work today i got cracking and what i hope will become a new hobby amongst my other pleasures (my bow :P) But yeah, for about 4 months now i have been admiring every ones knives and despite wanting one i really wanted to just make one so i got...

This is clearing a load up with myself aswell because i have only just got my recurve and i am still trying to work on the fundamentals of the recurve draw... I am trying to mimic my draw that i had achieved with my compound and hence i anchor my string just below my ear hooking my thumb behind the ...

And the kid hits him the furthest! 604! And i couldnt agree more, hes ridiculous and if any kids really do consider him a hero, i really do have to concern about my generation.... we certainly need to get out more!

Its a really great club for all ages and ability... very very helpful bunch of blokes that run it and all the members, young or old are willing to help whether its form or fetching.


Vaughn

Thats awesome, i may have to invest sometime in the near future!
Great to see some aussie products, Coles might even buy them around march, they look like chocolate .
Great to see!
vaughn

Cheers guys... hopefully i will be getting my first ever batch of wood arrows after exams! thanks for all your help and hospitality guys, ill keep you all posted how it goes!
Vaughn

Its really impossible to say one set thing... Unlike any sport, you are able to just do it, you can do competition if you want but in the end just achieving that perfect form, the beauty of the arrow as you just catch it hitting the target. Just shooting itself is relaxing, going through the motions...

Gday John, welcome :D . As a fellow newbie to both this site and trad i can say you have come to the right place. all these guys here really will go out of their way to help you out and coming from compound myself (though not as seasoned as your self), the pure excitement of going trad is more over ...

:D :D Yay! haha, exciting week ahead then, cheers Mark, you have been really helpful and patient! Now i get to be more annoying again on public forum :oops: . I know most of you are quiet adamant about not getting involved with arrows, especially wood but i could really use some help. I was looking ...

Cheers guys, i quiet like the Bunnyip idea :lol: but i guess i always thought they would have a bigger hole :shock: . As for the rabbit idea, i did have a fair look around and found some ermm, detritus... it was more like something from a small dog and there were also a lot of smaller bones around t...

Gday all, I went out for a little bit of a stroll out back of where i live, its about a 5km2 reserve type thing, nice and big... well anyways i decided to go off the paths today and have a bit of a snoop around with my camera... and after sneaking up on some kangaroos i stumbled upon... well look fo...

Hrmm, cheers guys, we will have to keep that in mind... not much else to worry about then?
vaughn

hahah, Ben told that one at dinner one time, luckily he didnt claim it as his own. hehe, paints a funny picture though and left me in laughs.
Vaughn

Gday guys...
just in preparation for a hunt in the near future... we have got permission on a farm in Toodyay and i was wondering with eating the rabbit and stuff... whats the chance of Myxomatosis in the rabbits and if there is, is it dangerous to humans (aka- carl, his bros and i)
cheer guys
Vaughn

Cheers guys, you have all been really helpful, fingers crossed i may be getting my first Recurve from ozbows very own Buzz :D , I am just a little over excited, which is kinda bad considering i have exams coming up! Cheers again guys and keep your eyes open for more annoying posts from me :wink: sti...

Nice work carl i forgot to check your arrows out last night, bugger, i cant wait to come down and have a shoot at moving target, i havent got to see it yet! keep up the good work mate and cheers for being my teacher in the art of Trad Archery!
Catcha soon
Vaughn

Hey Guys,
Yeah buzz, Hillbilly and i go way back, he had told me about that bow, it sounds quiet good but i am not sure how I would go with a 50lb straight up... hmmm let me know what you think.
