Sound advise, thanks Fella's. I need to start wearing rubber gloves when I handle Game. It's not just Brucellosis we need to be aware of, there is plenty of potential Disease and Parasites carried by Australian Game some of which may present a danger to Humans. https://www.wildlifehealthaustralia.co...

Wish I could have made it Folk's, have a great shoot !

Evening Folks, I have received plenty of interest and I have replied to those who have emailed me. I have replied to all the Emails I have received. I have realised since I started these Workshops how much I enjoy passing on my knowledge. So many People over the Years have taught me. So happy to do ...

G'Day Folks I will be conducting the 4th Selfbow Workshop up at Chevallan Archery Park over the Weekend of October 20th and 21st of October 2017. There is also a shoot up there on that Weekend so after the Workshop there will be plenty of like minded Folks to show your new Selfbow's off too. Maybe e...

I am doing everything in my power to get down to the inaugural Traditional Archery Australia National Muster. Money's tight but I think this will be a great Shoot and maybe a better Road Trip. Plan is to take my sweet time driving down, I'll probably stop on a Property I Hunt on now for an overnight...

If this Criminal misuse of Bows continues we are in trouble with the current appetite Politicians and Bureaucrats have for regulating inanimate object's. Qld dodged a bullet a few years ago and I know that the Authorities in NSW have warned all Archery Governing bodies that criminal misuse of Bows i...

There is only one word to describe the type of People that commit Crimes such as this and Eddy won't let me type it ! Lets hope someone dobs them in and they pay the full penalty under the Law.

Colin I have not started that Osage Stave Yet, I'll remove growth Rings on that Gnarly Stave until my patience runs out on Saturday but I have a Bow I was working on last year I really want to finish this weekend.

regards Perry

https://abbeymedievalfestival.com/ The Abbey Medieval Festival is on this coming Weekend Folks. I am not much into the Reinactment side of things but I love that so many other People are and the commitment they have to making their Costumes , Encampment's and dedication to passing on their knowledge...

I am sure a few Victorian Trad Archers will be along to help with considered advice and direction's to you're closest Club very soon, good luck and welcome to Traditional Archery. There are no shortcuts, just dedication and determination.

Orange Quiver Body, Red and Green Tartan, Gold and Silver Plait Border and a Purple Fleur d lis ? I enjoy the creativity and admire the craftsmanship in everything you and Steve do Sue, excellent work ! It's the migrant in me

Very Cool, Blacksmithing really intrigues me, wish I did not live in a Unit Complex and had reasonable neighbor's. When you think about it if you have some proficiency at Blacksmithing you can make your own Tools to make your own Knives/Broadheads, cooking utencils etc to process your own Game Meat ...

It is best if you could get down to a local Field Archery/ Bowhunting Club, give us a general idea of the district you live in and we should be able to advise you which Club is closest and best suited. Here you will be exposed to experienced Archer's who could guide you personally with Coaching and ...

very nice Deflex Reflex Rod The Arrows and Knife are lovely also. So many talented Craftsmen about the place, very impressive !

regards Perry

Wow' I have never seen or heard of Night Broadhead's, interesting design's !

Nice work as always Bob, I love your willingness to use Australian Timber instead of some of the more Traditional OS Timber. There is an easy way around Left and Right handed Bows, loose the Arrow Shelf

regards Perry

Grant you Bugger, you should have told me on Sunday you had a Birthday coming up - Happy Birthday Mate, have a Pear Cider for me will yah !

regards Jacko

I had a top time catching up with Mates I had not seen for a while on Friday and up until Saturday arvo. Hey Bob, I hope we solved solved the problems of the World Mate :lol: So many of my Fellow Archers are the Salt of the Earth and enrich my Life. I managed to walk around the 3D Range without hurt...

I have my gear ready, just have to load it into the X Trail. See everyone tomorrow

G'Day Folks, there is still a few spots left for the 3rd Selfbow Workshop to be held at Lakeside Bowmen Scout Road Kurwongbah on the weekend of the 3rd and 4th of June 2017. If you would like to attend please contact me via the information on the Application Form under the Bowyer's Workshop link on ...

G/Day Colin, thanks for the invite Mate, thoroughly enjoyed the visit. The Staves looking good, I figured you'd do a little more work on it :smile: I just spent a while searching for what that interesting combination Round Rasp / Gimlet Tool you where cutting your string Grooves with. They are calle...

Was thinking of a Hunt but have put it off until the end of June. Look forward to flinging a few Arrows at Barambah

regards Perry

I had not been back to Chevallan since the Mothers Day Shoot last year I think. Way too long between visits. Thanks to Gary, Tamara and all the Members that helped put on a top Shoot.

regards Perry

Watching with interest as always Colin

G/Day Folk's, thankyou for the kind words. I get a real kick out of sharing my passing on what I have learned through my near 40 Years as an Archery, thinking back all but 5 or 6 Years shooting a Traditional Bow. I know Gary and Glenn enjoyed sharing their experience also. I just spent an enjoyable ...

I'd be remiss not to thank Lakeside Bowmen for the use of their Facilities and Amenities. They have contributed greatly to the success of the first 2 Selfbow Workshop's.

regards Perry

G/Day Folk's, I have just absent mindlessly deleted an award winning Story and Photo's I have been working on since yesterday Arvo, Oh happy Day :cry: here's what I can remember. The second Traditional Archery Australia Workshop was held at Lakeside Bowmen over the Weekend of the 6th and 7th of May ...

What we have here is a situation where the Anti's are manipulating the Public perception of all Hunter's. Too many Sheeple have a negative perception of Hunter's and a larger % don't care too much about anything outside the Shopping Mall and other distractions. We are all painted as Poacher's, Crimi...

Daryl, a great many of us are off our Backsides and many submissions have been made by individuals, Hunting Club's and Hunting Organisation's. The Government outright refuse to talk about a permit system such as Victoria and NSW and fly into a flap when reinstating Qld's Duck and Quail Season is men...

I believe the Shooting Sport's are under attack from Government all around Australia and the likes of the Green's and nutjob organisation's like PETA. Even the ABC has been caught telling Lies several times recently reporting on Firearm's and Shooter's. Bowhunters are not immune from being labeled a...
