Title: new mod to my abo ishi
Post by: iowabow on January 13, 2014, 09:32:15 am

This is a photo of my new ishi with a window. The hole will allow me to remove antler if it gets stuck or too short to pull. Slugs are added to raise the antler bit as it shortens due to wear.

Good idea on that. If it still gets stuck - drill a small hole in the antler from the tip and put a drywall screw in that and pull it out with pliers (not very "abo" however).

Clever idea.
