Thanks Bob. Was great meeting you and shooting with you in your pole barn. Nice setup for sure.

Dave is a good younger brother. If I was a youngster, he’d probably be an even better older brother.

Lots of good people here. And lots I would love to see come back again.

Put a braced curve in the bow with heat. That way it should keep that shape because it is not being strained.
Good idea!

Welcome back BJ.  Dave is definitely a good to have for a younger brother.  It was great meeting you as well.  That bow just needs a little weight taken off and hunted.  I know that you will do both well.  Stay warm.   :OK

Thanks Pat/BJ. Ya Pat Jimmy has been going through some life things and I think got off the health kick he was on, haven't seen him in a long while until lately, hanging out is seeming to help so glad he is back and getting things together. BJ the bear steaks were great, I have heard some say bear wasn't good but to me it is about the best meat I have eaten. We don't have many Bob Cats here either, this one my buddy killed last season just NE of us 20/30 miles. I have been seeing a few around over the last few years but not a lot, The Red fox is making a come back though, use to have a bunch of them when I was young ,until the Coyotes came in, but they must have figured out how to avoid the Yots and seeing more and more of them last few years, rather have them than Coyotes that's for sure.  :)

I hear ya, that's why I hardly every scrape with string on or braced, maybe a little toward the end of the process but not during the main tillering.

Those bear steaks do look delicious. The skulls turned out great. I don’t have a Bob cat skull yet. None around here yet. A few years ago a single one passed through and raided the neighbors geese pen. The DNR relocated it a little further north.

Hope the shoulder surgery goes well Pappy.

Sleek it seems like you have a few bows already.

I would like to donate a flint knife. Would you like it for this drawing, or would you prefer to start some prizes for next year?

PS there’s at least one of those poster covers that I like Pat . My article about my second selfbow buck is in the one. “All in a Days Work”

Oh I did that once. Scare the bah gee bees out of me. Barely touched the string but it broke so fast it totally took me by surprise.

It’s a thumper right now Del. I don’t know if it will hold up or take a lot of set. That’s probably the big question. I think it is pretty stressed, but so far it is holding up okay.
