Well my hunting Jerry Bowen just sent me a picture of a nice Mule deer he took today in Colorado with the bow I made him this fall. The buck will net 160 the bow is a sinew and rawhide backed osage bow 54'' long 54@28.
Makes ya proud when someone uses your bows,
Mike

You should be proud Mike. That is a dandy bow, and Jerry took a nice deer with it. I'd love to try one of your bows some day.

He said the shot was 25 yards and the deer went 30.

Great buck and I really admire the look of your bows.  Evidently they do a good job of putting a thumping on game too.

Congrats to Jerry. That is awesome. As a bowyer, I am glad you appreciate it when hunters share their photos with you. I sent a pic of my first deer to the bowyer who made my bow and never got a response. No biggie though. They are probably busy hunting or making bows. I didn't know if I should bother them with a pic or not. I am sure they appreciated it too.
