Title: Bob Morrison is skinning my bow...LongStick64 WINS!!
Post by: fido dog on February 25, 2010, 03:45:00 AM
DIDN'T HAVE TO GO TOO FAR DOWN THE LIST.....

IT WAS THE SECOND GUESS....LOL!!!

OK..So I sent my bow to Bob and asked him to surprise me. I have NO idea what he is going to put on my bow!?!? I just know it will be beautiful. Copperheads are out. He hasn't been able to get them for some time.

If you are the FIRST person to match it up, I will send you a very....VERY nice prize. One of my knapped blades!

Your guess is as good as mine on this one!

Here it is....Paleo Rambo!!!

Knapped from Brazilian Agate and very translucent.

Man, the list of snakes big enough to skin a bow with is shorter than I thought.

Post by: recurve_shooter on February 25, 2010, 12:20:00 PM
Indigo snake....kidding on that one since it is threatened, but it would look pretty cool, especially paired with an ebony riser!

So for my real guess I'll go with Red Rat snake

That would have to be one SERIOUS Garter Snake!!...LOL

Thanks for the compliment! I knapped that over a year ago and it's still one of (if not) my favorites. About 7" long with the tang and when you hold it to light, you can see big honeycombs in it. It's pretty freaking cool.

Now take a real guess so you can be in the running! =0)
