Been a while since I made a bow, here's why
« on: February 09, 2015, 09:53:55 pm »
So a couple people asked me for pics of my latest calls. I don't have there numbers, so I'm posting them here.

Like the title says these and many others are the reason I haven't made a bow since September of last year. I'm looking forward to the bow trade, itching to make a bow again.

Very cool Dave!
Leaving some of the natural edge of the wood really gives the calls character.
Have you been making calls for a long time?

... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

Can't wait to hold it, a matching set.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
