Ed Scott with his eleventh hour javie and Shawn Williams with his first bow kill-Shawn had his bow for less than 24 hours before bagging his Javie.  (http://***********.bowsite.com/tf/pics/00small26229315.JPG)

The picture with Ed Scott and Shawn Williams, what make, kind of bow is thatT. It's beautiful. Is it a Oryx?

Yes it is an Owl Oryx. That one is set up for either left or right and has a grip made of Coyote rawhide and Coyote fur string  silencers -both taken from a coyote that Shawn took with a rifle last year.

Jim and Night Wing, near Marfa Tx.

You guys are just talking about how pretty the bows are because Charles was shooting his Black Widow.  ;)

luckieeee fellows.  The Javelia was made for traditional bow hunting!
Good to see Ed shooting the crafts he makes.  Treeman, nice looking bow, now who would have thought that such a short bow would shoot that good-(excepting Ed, of course)?

Skip, I agree-Javalina are perfect for bowhunting. My Oryx is 52" NtN ,45Lb @ 28" and it doesn't stack.....but it is too short for me to consider it ideal. (Fingerpinch tends to open my groups.) Still it is a fun bow and well suited to tight quarters. Being horn and sinew it gains weight when cold so it is 45@ about 23"-24" at 35 degrees-just right for YOU.   :biglaugh:

Smallwood, I suspect that you are referring to Mike's bow in the first pic. I like my Oryx but it isn't shown off particularly well in my pic.
BTW Howdy neighbor.
