Ozbow

I am now leaving from Brisbane tomorrow lunch time if someone wants to jump in my car and share the fuel. Return Monday night.

No worries Roadie, good luck with the drive.

Hello Rod, going well here mate, how are you? Sorry about the short notice hopefully someone can pick up the opportunity, its a top place for a hunt and this time of the year is great.

I am looking for a hunting partner for this weekend coming 6,7,8th April. I have those dates booked at 'Jackals Hide' west of Tenterfield and my hunting partners had to cancel due to other commitments. This is a pay to hunt property see the review here: http://bowhunting-forum.com/showthread.php?981...

A mate of mine has seen wedge tails doing the same thing to wallabies out on the jumpups. Amazing stuff! I've seen a wedgie swooping a sow and suckers and it would have had one of the little fellas if they hadn't made it to the cover of long grass. It actually grabbed one but dropped it from about 1...

I've fit a dozen in before, but unless you had separate holders for each arrow the feathers will squash a bit where they rest against the side of the tube even if you only have 1/2 a dozen in there. It's no big deal though, just stand the feathers back up again before you shoot the arrow and they fl...

I've carried them a couple of ways mate, in a tube with broadheads attached down the side of my pack, or slipped into the pocket on the side of my pack without broadheads attached and a waterproof fletch cover to protect the feathers from water and scrub. If I can remove the broadheads as in using c...

Good Luck Craig, I hope you get the drop on a few of those Texas swine.

In my own and my sons experiences, a 30# bow shooting well tuned arrows, with razor sharp narrow 2 blade broadheads, will efficiently kill rabbits, hares, foxes, small pigs and small goats if you do your part and hit the heart/lung areas.

It was a good day, I felt loved and appreciated which is a bit rare these days with a teenage daughter in the house. I couldn't have asked for more.
Thanks for the well wishes.

I don't want to have to go to that other site...

You know, that other place... where all the bogans hang out.

I guess I'm not invited then?

I have a Border Harrier GL that is my main hunting bow. I've always been a one bow man, but I'm lucky at the moment as I get to try out different bows for Bowhunter Australia magazine.

Yeah that's the one Moreton, it's a ripper mate. I don't really want to part with it, but I'm a big believer in moving things on that don't get used and I just don't use this bow often enough. I was going to keep it for another back up or for introducing others to archery, but it just seemed too muc...

Flatline MC2 50# @ 28" , 62" take down recurve. $600 + postage This is a superbly crafted bow made by Rob Nicoll of Northern QLD, it actually won the Archery Hall of Fame National bow making competition this year. Unfortunately it's a little light for me and I don't use it as often as it d...

That's a great piece of history you own Ben and a great shooter too by the looks of things.
I wish I up there shooting termite mounds with you and your faithful companion, a target rich environment like that would make for some great fun.

Looks like a nice place to hunt, well done fellas.

I was always told that a bow cut (or arrow plate adjusted) so that the arrow lined up directly with the centre line(centreshot), would be more unforgiving to shoot then one that was cut to centre or just before centre. This is quoted from O.L. Adcock's tuning page and may shed some light on the ques...

Mick I've had deer, rabbits and pigs jump the string, there is a reason why we try and make a bow as quiet as possible by using string silencers.

Moreton I like to separate the strands of the string and install the silencers that way.

To answer your question Mick, yes I have changed over the last few years in what broadheads I use, from some of the cheaper Australian broadheads to some of the more expensive American and in one case Australian broadheads. In the past I exclusively used Ribtek and Tusker broadheads and still do use...

Nice one Pedro.
Definately an interesting coat on that pig, the silvery tips look great. You'll have to post up some pics when you've finished with the taxidermy.

Great looking boar Tommo, nice one mate.

Steve the Jetboil jetpower fuel canisters are a propane / isobutane mix (I can't remember the ratio) and are rated for 4 season use. Propane provides higher vapor pressure to the fuel for better performance in cold weather. Iso-butane provides more constant pressure as the fuel level gets low. I'm p...
