Straightening the shafts with a propane torch and easy pressure. Have crowned them with white spray on then burnished the shafts(my trade mark) now to crest them cut to length, seal them, nock, fletch and put on my 150 grain Bodkins. Saw the big boars agin so for now I have them semi patterned. Mayb...

Gazza super glue (cryo) and a dryer sheet will help you fix that torn ear depending on where the tear is. PM me if you want details.
STP

Gaz as Bill has said you must open up the ear quickly and thoroughlyor the hair will slip. If you plan on tanning your own skins on a regular basis or even hunt enough in which you cape your game heads it may justify purchasing an ear opening tool. It looks like an elongated set of pliers (Kinda) th...

I see disrespect from the government and those who hold office is everywhere. As a Marine and nephew, son, cousin, and so on of those who served with your brave men in Vietnam I salute all of those who have suffered for God, Family and Country. Peace be with you all. Especially to those who lost the...

Well the chundoo shafts came in. 6 really good shafts, 2 decent and 4 that really need to be srtaightened. They are 23/64 diameter so I am off to get a new tapering tool since mine is worn out, some banana cut feathers and nocks. John I am going to send you some recipes that are fairly easy to prepa...

Patience my friend lots of patience. You must never rush anything and plan for the worst case scenario just to be safe. But you cannot let fear take over what you want to accomplish. Here in the next few weeks I will be working on a diarama that will have two pigs fighting so I will post kind of a b...

Thanks Jeff. After I flesh salt and degrease the animals I put them in an acid bath to cure the skin then I actually tan them. If after all that they still smell even a little I have a special concoction that I use to deodorize them which leaves a nice lavender scent and totally kills the smell that...

Its O.K. the Mulie was taken by a very good friend of mine in the western part of the State in the Davis Mountains. He is a stick bow shooter but killed this one with is wheelie bow at 12 yards. The boar is my biggest right there he is field dressed be cause the four of us couldnt pick him up with g...

Well that stinks. Let me try one more thing. Post em in a bit.
STP

I will trhttp://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y88/sotxpighunter/IMG_0636-1.jpgy redoing the link to photobucket. Let me know if they are still too small.

Friends, I think most who I have messaged (NO NOT massaged) with here know that I am proud of my American heritage But that being said I also believe that if your are in a country other than your own you should support the LOCAL economy first and then if you dont find what YOU want then go elsewhere...

Fellas I have now had them both (Vegemite and Tim Tams) I like em both! What do you expect from a guy thats Part Texican and Native American. Keith I will try the heat gun I have been looking for a reason to get me one. It'll beat the hell out of scorching my fingers with a propane torch. :lol: The ...

I like to use a small three sided mill file used for detail wood working. The teeth are very small, you have three working sides(One wears out simply flip it) it takes off metal from the BHeasier without all the big teeth cuts left in the BH. and I think it simply puts a better edge on the cutting b...

You can also try Stos, Zwickeys, Grizzlies and Aces I have used them all with the latter three being my go to heads along with the Magnus. My favorites are first Grizzlies then Zwickey, Aces then Magnus all in a variety of sizes. The Grizzlies are single bevel edged with a hard angel chisel point in...

Hello all, John I recieved the Tim Tams ate two and had to put the box away or else I'd have eaten all of them in one sitting. :lol: Will go great with my Texas Pecan coffee in the morning. Just have to hide them :wink: . I have four other chocoholics in the house. You were right about the Chundoo i...

Thanks for the compliments fellas. Yes that is a Chek-mate. I have it posted for sale in the classifieds right now. I am thinning the pool so I can get another one Or maybe get another Tattoo Or finish off my bowfishing deck for my boat. By the way are there any Blokes here from New Zealand. I'm try...

Good afternoon, well here anyway :) I do want to apologize for my rant yesterday. I am simply just fed up with negativity.... everywhere. Unfortunately what I feel(and others) do not mean a hill of beans to those in power here in the states or any else where in the world. Sons, brothers, fathers, da...

Hopefully this one comes out. just a coyote and one of my recurves.

Yes I do brother but I am going to have to email it to you for help posting I cannot get the others to resize,my photo package on my puter is expiredand until I get another one to upgrade I'm out of luck.
Eric

Another angle.

Here's a 150 class whitetail deer one of my clients took last Winter. I got him within 40 yards of the buck. Here is one of the bucks I mounted for my neighbor last summer.
STP

Thanks Jeff Ive got a few pictures in my puter but I'm having trouble getting them small enough to post. I know how to resize them now courtesy of one of the fellos on here but my software is either expired or I'm too much of a knucklehead to figure it out. I'll try again in a minute.

Unfortunately whats said is very true. The old adage the rich get richer is true. Unfair business tactics are now the norm from home lending to petroleum and everywhere in between, food, clothing, basic things are now outsourced to other countries instead of kept in house to take care of our own. Bu...

Has anyone ever made arras out of asian Chundoo wood here? I just ordered a dozen shafts an am going to try them out. They are said to be of medium to heavy weight and very tough with similar straightening capabilities as that of Port Orford Cedar. I have some Ace 175 grain Super Express two blades ...

If you cannot find them in Oz check out http://www.bytheswordinc.com they have few different types. If you want to get some let me know and I will get them for you and ship them regular post instead of with their jacked up shipping costs. Also try www.hectorcoleironworks.com they have a better selec...

My people have used ginger for ages to help with nausea and stomach upset along with wild peppermint leaves and Mugwart leaves made into teas for the same reasons. Longbow I agree that A lot of folks here in the states don't really Care or see the other persons point of view. Don't feel alone in tha...

Try a google search on the World Horsebow Events in Japan and I believe they had a tournament here in the states. A fella from Hungry seems to be the authority on it. Hope this helps.

Ya the money bit really puts a black eye on the overall aspect of shooting Trad and bows in general. I used to shoot wheel bows for a short bit but really got disgusted at how many shooters had sponsers and were so called "Professionals". Even now I have pretty much stopped watching most o...

Good afternoon all, I know I'm not an Aussie nor am I trying to be one and blend in. I'm part American Indian and part Texican so I mean nodisrespect nor am I trying to tell it how it is. There are a number of money tournaments or shoots related to the trad community here in the states but in genera...
