How's the smile on his big sisters faces? Priceless!
Poor little fella will have to endure a few years of make-overs and hairdo try outs once the girls hit early teens!

Welcome Afro, pull up a log at our fire and share a few yarns mate. As I get older I'm developing an interest in rifle hunting, be good to have our own gunsmith here for occasional advice.

Lookin' forward to it, Jack. Shame it aint out for Xmas!

What a cracker of a boy, 9 pound! Congratulations to all involved mate! 14 grandkids? You certainly have left your mark, Boof!

Happy Birthday you poor old bugger!

Gee the country is looking bleak, here's to hoping they get rain, soon. Awesome to see ya's out on the goats, fellas! Poor old Darren, hey? He must be feeling his advancing years and has moved into "assisted" hunting! (only jokin', Chuck!)

Since it is a regular occurrence to see posts involving digs at me regarding my views on this subject I thought it appropriate that I do a reply in this thread - even if I am a bit late. C'mon Jeffy! :smile: I can only speak for myself, but I give ya stick 'cause you're me mate, and I relish and am...

Man o man, taking game with a self made bow! Does it get any better? Congrats mate, well done.

You could do a whole lot worse than to have a chat with Sean, Paul...http://www.ozbow.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=14241

Tom, this wont help your cuts mate, but what type of clamp do you have on your fletching jig? Looks like a straight (2degree offset) to me. Once you have a spine jig, try a helical clamp, probably in right wing as most feathers in Aus seem to be) and see how the arras go.

Rods butt is simply inappropriate in ANY setting, forum or otherwise!

You've made me think, Grant. I'm booking an appointment.

Yeah it may offend some who love cats, I used that skull in my mrs fish tank looked grouse as.. Until the thing fell to pieces... She wasn't too pleased after that Would have liked to have been there to see that! :biggrin: Nah, doesn't offend me at all, matey. Lot of difference between my belled, d...

I have a pet cat here at home & I don't mind telling you I love it...wouldn't stop me pluggin' a feral one if given the chance, though! Had a couple of goes at ferals here on the island, but they sprung me both times. Awesome stuff, Jack, they're a lot harder to get the drop on than folk may thi...

I'll have one, Spinksy, preferably the same one I ordered on the other bowhunting site.

Didn't Paul Mayall used to make a skinner that looked similar to an Ulu, but with the horizontal handle?

Hey Perry, check out clips of Inuit women using ulus, they skin like champs with 'em.

Of course it's craftsmanship! I thought it was all explained in another thread viewtopic.php?f=2&t=14320 . "Bling" these days just means adornment, matey, and in this case, beautiful adornment at that! I understood what you were meaning mate and I was just sayin' I don't agree with th...

Those photos really show up its beauty Tony thanks. Very nice indeed!!! Hey Mick Smith, there's ya bling! :wink: That ain't no bling Nephew that is craftsmanship!!! Jeff Of course it's craftsmanship! I thought it was all explained in another thread http://www.ozbow.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=2&...

Mate, what a prize! I'll be starting many a thread, Jeff!

Hey Mick Smith, there's ya bling! Very nice bow indeed HG, the craftsmanship is incredible! Can't wait to see what you end up blooding it on!

Is that a shot from last time you got on the grog, Troy?

Get some more photos Boof, I'd like to see more of it.

Mate, those mozzies terrified me, let alone the idea of being out there alone with bears in the district! Seems to me that it's the battle with ones own mind that provides the greatest challenge to begin with, like the struggle with his own overwrought reaction to seeing a plane fly over without ack...

Oi ! Where did it go??

Will do, Grahame, thanks for that. Speaking of wilderness authors, I saw the film adaption of Jack Londons "Call of the Wild" on tele the other day, Charlton Heston ruined it for me. He's so wooden, and he just plays "Charlton Heston" in every role! The dogs were the stars of the...

Ok, I've been checking this out and it seems to me the trick is, don't just go on one trip and stay until you fail, do a few smaller duration trips until you have learned to read that particular land. After all, pre-historic man didn't do it on his own, he had others to combine efforts with, and man...

My word, bling indeed!

Yep, gotta add the inserts y'self if you wanna make 'em screw ins.

Here ya go, mate, and welcome to Ozbow. http://www.tradbits.com.au/index.php?pa ... t&Itemid=1
