Well done Guy!
You even got to use your flashy new crested arrows.
What type of arrow head did you use?

Hi everyone,
Thank you for your kind words... I really enjoyed this hunt with the bamboo backed bow... these bows really do it for me...

Hi Graydon, The arrows are the woodies I made up for the Huntsman, they come out real nice and the broadheads are Outback traditionals, which are a very nice broadhead...

Hi mate, the only problem is that I’m a bit of a spur of the moment type of hunter... Sometimes I don’t even know when I’m going hunting...

Hi Jeff,
Thanks mate, I’ll get some pictures and stats up for the bow in the next few days... It’s a lovely bow to shot that’s for sure..

Hi Nathan, Plenty more foxes where they came from...

Thanks mate, I ended up skinning both of them, they should look good next to the others...

Not enough...
I’m trying to get it to a stage whereby my wife doesn’t notice...
Cheers Guy

Nice!!
I read the title and got worried the foxes were wearing bamboo armor lol. Good to see they are still vunerable.

Nice shooting and a nice bow.
One of the chaps at my local club, Sydney Bowmen, by the name of Howard has something similar from Nick.
He also has a selfbow made by Nick - tis very pretty and shoots impressively given it is just a shaped stick with no glass, carbon, sound dampening harmonics or other do-hickeys
Cheers

Great stuff Guy, a first outing doesn't get much better than that. If you hadda plugged the second fox for 3 from 3, you would had to buy drinks to get anyone to believe it
. Sweet looking bow too mate
, would love to develop the skills to make such a thing of beauty.
Cheers..... Rod
