Ozbow

Unreal Tom, they are few and far between, I know you've earned it

Great hooks for a mountain pig mate

Jeff and Co. top stuff!

Must have been bloody great to get back out there with some sharp arra's and get into it Jeff ?? !!!

Nice pics too

Well done on finding the Cocky sign Gundy

He's there somewhere hey! Straight shooting!

Well done Piggy, great work with the curve!!

Won't forget that little guy comming into the call and getting whacked for ages hey!

No Jeff, just gaining experience

My home in Victoria lies in the East gippsland hills of the great divide is full of that Wild Cherry tree. Samabr deer use these 'trees' as signposts in the bush and rub trees as they stick out like dog's balls with their european looking green foliage. I said 'tree' because they are actually a para...

jape, which one? I am the ugly mug in the bottom pic... and that is 100% home-made stuff which has proven itself many times now to me now on deer

The other bloke Andy, that mesh overcoat type camo I think is something he got in Sth Africa, but not sure

Ozbowians, After spending some time with the 'dark side' I went out for a recurving ramble with a great mate of mine, whom I hope I will meet up with again, though in Sth Africa on a game ranch :wink: 8) Anyways, Andy has been 'down-under' for the last few months and we have become good friends. He ...

your making me think of 'home' back down mexico way...

I will be after a Sambar later this year I hope

Deadly

Not a bad shot, not a bad goat Well done

Is this bow to hunt with

I've had a few run in's with hounder's 'back home'...... this is a nice exception I suppose....

Sorry I will tell only lies from now on

Hey ssga, was the Howitt track busy when you were carrying the carcass along it? I've been up there a few times, at times there can be quite a few up there! Would have looked very cool draggin meat through the onlookers

Not many hunters are prepared to walk much more than 10 kms from the car I agree. But good luck carrying a Sambar 10km's back to the car :shock: You need to find good access. I know where a lot of the fire trails etc are that run through my old hunting grounds. These gave me (and more importantly t...

Head into the hills. I have spent most of my life in East Gippsland, in the foothills of the great divide. There are sambar throughout most of this area... go to your local DSE, get a map, and go for it! BTW - a hint to Victorian bowhunters, I used to get a lot of info off the guys who would go up a...

Hey ssaa, your cool mate, hell, I aim to take a sambar too :D 8) :roll: We are actually packing up at the moment to move house, and I just went to have a look through the mags, but the girlfriend (bless her :roll: :lol: ) has packed em all away, in some box, somewhere... I will have a look once we h...

I actually have found a picture of a longbow shot sambar from a while ago in an old Australian Bowhunter magazine. I'm totally not trying to burst ssaa's bubble, I just saw it then tis all

Nice! I hail from very strong Sambar country and there is nothing like it

You'll get one, just make sure you hit him hard

Ribtek's are good, very easy to sharpen.

Blackstump broadheads do a 100 grain 'Ironbark', and is one strong broadhead, tough as nails, but a little 'harder' to sharpen.

Hi all, I've been doing some testing with my bow and it has yeilded fantastic results. The shooting abilities of lighter # limbs using DynaFlight strings, compared to a set of limbs (though 2" longer total) using dacron strings (stretched and braced correctly) of 7# more draw weight is quiet ne...

I've got some alloy shafts comming my way also. I'm getting 2219's as they should be of good spine for my 70# bow, but also are the most durable size. I've just got to seehow they shoot now, I've got a bunch of points made up from 125 through to 200 grains, we'll see how we go. :wink: It doesn't bot...

No you've got to put the hours in

ttt

:lol: Jindy, what a great pick up mate, sham you would have had to live through some quiwi saying 'sucxty dollars' the whole time :lol: I hate their accent :x :shock: :lol: Mick, good post mate, I too am wondering what affordable water proof camo clothing is avaliable. I'd want a full rain jacket st...

They are different species though, native to the US (there are a few sorts)

Yep I am working on different designs here and there....

Those ones are 4 x 4 1/2". They have very good stability characteristics, a teensy bit noisy at the moment (especailly for deer at a reasonable range)

I have been helping develop the Ozcrest wraps, and I've taken to the traditional side of things :D The wraps are fantastic with wood shafts, carbons and alloys. They go on tight, without too much fuss, and are tough to boot. Many designs are avaliable, but with defiante traditionally focussed ones c...
