Title: 2008 Bunny Hunt Bows
Post by: Huntrdfk on January 09, 2008, 05:13:00 PM
Last year, one of the results of having so many people at Shawn's JLMBH was having so many bows in one place, it was like having 50 grown men and women in a candy store, and all the candy was FREE!!!!!!!  

There ended up being 117 bows from 49 bowyers at that hunt, giving all of us the chance to fondle and shoot almost any bow we wanted, from DAS to selfbows.......well, it's time to see what will be there this year.

If you are looking for a new bow, or simply want to try the latest, greatest, this will be the place to be.......

I will do my best to keep a detailed list of what bows will be there, just post them in this thread and I'll put it together.

I'll start..........

 Osage Orange self bow of my own making

 Morrison Shawnee Dakota-50@29"

 Ancient Spirits Youth Recurve


Let it begin........  :archer:

I honestly have no idea beyond my 2-pc 53#@ 28 Horne Brushbow.  I'll see how many old Bear's I can fit in the car, so there'll be a bunch of the mid to late 50's with me...
and one for the table as well.

1 '68 grizzly
1 '68 Kodiak hunter
1 shakespeare of unknown origins
1 MAII (still for sale)
and possibly my tip
all LH

Killy, bring that gorgeous bow but I'm sure someone will have a "bunny" bow that you can hunt with. Ask Curt what can happen to a bow on one of these drives.

Hey! I Just Got A Brain Storm! What if I brought ONLY ONE BOW and a half dozen arrows to this Bunny Hunt? Would that make me "normal"? Would I have any less fun?..... Nevermind. I'd rather take all that I own in archery stuff with me. Just in case I need it for who knows what! More like a grown-up show and tell.

Gotta Get A Bigger Truck. Lucky Me.  :rolleyes:
