Great to see you have found a way to extend your time outdoors Daryl; enjoy! Alex, Yes it seems Facebook etc has taken over from forums. I myself have run into some health issues and I have not flung an arra for quite some time. Hopefully others are still enjoying club shoots and bowhunting etc thou...

Yes very special. I have a number of his bows etc that I would like to see go to a museum but sadly the national bodies don't have one as yet. Hopefully one day.

Jeff

Good work and very interesting. I know Dennis La Varenne was always interested in your mathematical modelling. I have the last bow he ever made, a beautiful Yew flat bow.

Jeff

Probably to do with what snakes are protected and in what country. Will be interesting seeing them used on one of your bows.

Jeff

Interesting article; thanks for posting it up here.

Jeff

Sorry I'm late to this but the same to you Eddie and the members here; all the very best for the New Year!!!

Jeff

Seems like you have your battery charging all sorted and hopefully will not have any problems. I have not had any problems either but, like you, I don't leave my batteries on the chargers unattended. Interesting you mention your EGO battery powered mower; we have a couple of EGO tools as well. We ha...

Jeff, The trike comes with a smart charger which shuts down when the battery reaches the correct level. It would appear that a lot of the battery fires occurring in scooters and the like are caused by people using inappropriate chargers i.e. buying a faster charger online to reduce charging times. ...

Great it is able to make life easier for you Daryl. My concern is the charging of the lithium-ion batteries on these types of things. Just seems too many fires are being caused by them. Stay safe.

Jeff

Good balanced reply; not common these days.

Jeff

It looks good strung too. I would prefer a thicker handle section also.

Jeff

Good comparison. One can see why the Assyrian bow has such good performance.

Jeff

That's thicker than I thought it was. Looks a good filling.

Jeff

Looks great Daryl. I hope the styrofoam won't melt onto the arrows. Also you will only be shooting lighter bow & arrow combos I guess as it isn't very thick?

Jeff

A nice functional knife that one; good work.

Jeff

Good to have them up on the wall for sure.

Jeff

Very nice!

Jeff

Should work a treat.

Jeff

Good setup there.

Jeff

Went to Bingham's website and started looking for what I need......started noticing the lack of lots of materials....like black glass , certain wood laminations , riser blocks in certain woods.... Sent a e-mail and they said they are closing...... Alex. That is sad to hear after all these years. Th...

Daryl.

I'm sure someone will grab it and enjoy shooting it.

Jeff

The maker wouldn't agree with me I'm sure but to me they were rather average. I'm relating to the bows made back in the 1980's and 1990's. They had horrible Australian made glass but that may have changed to Gordon's glass in the later 90's. They were chunky, flat laid with 18" risers and the f...

Jeff

Wasn't you Daryl, I just read it wrong sorry.

Jeff

The bow doesn't look to be a three piece with the limbs bolted on backwards to me but it is strung backwards and she is drawing it backwards. You would think they would check such things.

Jeff

Daryl and Jeff I have always been open to anyone that has been open the making a donation to help run the site. Eddie Eddie, Please put up account details in a new post saying 'Donation details for Site Hosting Costs' or similar. If you don't wish to do that ask people who would like to donate to P...

I still come here and try to post on any topics that have been posted up. Thanks for all you do to keep Ozbow going; much appreciated Eddie. Perhaps put up a fund raiser such as a voluntary donation to keep the site going as there is a lot of valuable information stored within the forums. Sadly, I t...

My comment regarding the reflex being different in the limbs was because in the photo of the strung bow it looked like the reflex point was sharper on the top limb compared with the bottom. It may just be the angle of the photo. I would like to see a photo of it at full draw just to see the bend in ...
