I had issues with fletch cuts with my horsebows as well. I tried a glove but it really through me out - the feathers also cut through the glove after about a week. I have since raised my nocking point so that the arrow is pointing down slightly. This has not affected my grouping and I have not had a...

Thank you Arrows
Recently Garry from a local club allowed me into his workshop for a bow buildalong. For the $30 spent on wood I walked away with a lovely white oak selfbow. As a way of saying thank you I have put together some new trad arrows for him. The shafts are handmade 23/64 hewn pine made by Garry's bro. I h...

Combat Archery Bow
Greetings all, I recently attended an SCA event over in Yass and observed their battles. Im hooked! Im now thinking about the required equipment to get involved myself. My question to you guys is: Since combat bows are limited at a max 30# @ 28" and need to cast a fairly heavy arrow with rather...

Why I fired my secretary
Why I fired my secretary Last week was my birthday and I didn't feel very well waking up on that morning. I went downstairs for breakfast hoping my wife would be pleasant and say, "Happy Birthday!", and possibly have a small present for me. As it turned out, she barely said good morning, l...

They also have flags that they post around just in case. There is an old trail behind that target that is very rarely used o...

Hey Guys, My Hun bow arrived late Friday afternoon, just in time for the weekend shoot. I am very happy with it! It looks great and the leather/stitching is first class. I love the horn on the siars and strikeplate. The bow is lovey and smooth all the way back to 50# and offers good performance to b...
