Hi Scatta my hand seems OK now; been shooting my 40#érs and I am pulling up OK but I am being careful.
Cheers guys
Ian

Further to the above is it OK to have one nocking position for the arrow but that position be between 2 clamp on nock sets so the arrow does not move on the string because of finger / string pinch?

Hi guys for those of you who were at Rob McKenzie's and expressed concern re what happened to my hand I now know its a partially torn tendon which may put me out of archery, trad bows anyhow for about 6 to 8 weeks and will probably have to start with lightish bows and build up from there but I have ...

Hi Tony, Surewwoods site now I remember was bwhere I read that the pencil shrpener tool wont work on Douglas Fir! I have the bearpaw "pencil sharper" from jcm so I will have to try when I get somw DF shafts. Minwax whats that! have not seen it but I have Bunnings near here so I will ahve t...

Hi all, I guess I should have asked this question along with the glues question but what is the best lacquer / paint / varnish or finish to use on wood arrows that glues will stick to well and also what is the best glue for sticking steel points / broadheads to wood shafts? Also what is the best mea...

Bugger!! but not surprised. I was really looking forward to this event; I hope cancelled means postponed!! Not only was I looking forward to the event, the shooting but meeting all the great people I have been "conversing with on ozbow.net; Rob Mc, Roadie, Jeff, Sue and all those helping me wit...

Hi guys, I always wondered if fletching tape is any good particularly on helical fletches; i envisaged feathers coming loose pretty quickly. Up untill now I have used the selleys shockproof superglue when sticking the feathers on to bare wood and then lacquering between the feathers with a paint bru...

Hi all,
What is a good glue/adhesive for glueing feathers to lacquered or painted shafts?
Cheers

Hi Little John,
I know I sound picky its just that I was advised that the 2 bows I want the strings for are not suited to materials; I was told to use dacron which is fair enough as they are older bows that don't have the reinforced tips that you need for FF and Dyneema I think its called.
Cheers
Ian

Hi,
Does anyone out there in Ozbow land make strings as I am after a couple of strings; flemish would be nice but 2 colour ordinary would do but they would have to be dacron or a material along those lines not dyneema or fast flite,
Cheers
Ian

Hi Lyonal, I was experimenting tonight again with arrow shafts. I find that from an aluminium point of view 2315 Eastons with a 145gr point at 30" long shoots great. Tonite I tried cutting down a 72# shaft I had to 29&1/2" and glued a 100 gr point on it it and it was much closer to cut...

Hi all, Looks like I have stirred the pot a bit when it comes to my question of what bows qualify for trad shoots and what don't. What brought me to ask is that I plan on going to Wisemans in March and was wondfering is I was able to compete using recurves and longbows that are in the modern form ie...

Hi Sue,
There is a guy on the australian bowhunting forum looking to buy wood and feather arrows in the wanted to buy section. I think he should get some made up as he wont get ones to suit a 35# recurve that are any good to readily.
Cheers

Thanks Jeff.
