Re: Traditional Archery Supplies Australia

Yeah I was very impressed with Stuart approach to the issue and the personal interest that he took.

Having spoken to him I can appreciate why he doesn't have a phone number on the website. I will be placing another order very soon.

I have an old pair of scissors that I would like to get restored/refurbished for my wife. They are about 300mm long and made by Weiss. Are there any knife guys that would be interested in taking on a project like this?

Re: Sourcing a Throwing axe & knife

If you were throwing it at my club I would want to which blade is the primary blade, and would mark it with a marker (permanent texta squirt of paint)so that you can tell which blade sticks into the target.

Re: Desert ash

Thanks for the feedback.

I have access to a very old tree of the fraxinus variety that will be removed as part of a redevelopment so was giving some thought to saving some of the timber. But am not so sure now.

Re: Australia Post Money orders, Feedback

They basically write you a cheque in the name of the person/company that you want to pay and the amount. They generaly charge you $2 or $4. It is then up to you to post it.

Re: Wrong account number

isn't it interesting that the bank wanted to charge you $50! They would have know that it would bounce back to you if the details weren't right yet they didn't tell you.

Re: Shooting cats and maybe dogs

I am not a big lover of cats, I dont object to people keeping cats as pets as long as they contain it in their yard.

Any cat more then 20yards from the house is feral in my book.

Hi Flyne,
a rule of thumb is 3lbs for each inch or the stated figures on the bow i.e. 56# @ 27" add 6 lbs would give you a draw weight around 62 lbs at 29" give or take a little bit.

Hope that helps.
