Ed Scott @ Owl Bows wanted some different snakes for his show bows this year so we fixed him up. We have a few more of these big ones that will make great backing.
Mike
:scared: What the heck is that Mike?
Where's the big snake at? LOL
HOLY MOLY!!
That looks more like siding for my house than backing for my bow!
:D
haha thats either the best photoshop pic ive ever seen or some kind of python skin. definitly not a pattern you see alot on bows.
thats gonna be a BIG bow!
Burmese Python
Just how tall are you Mike? ;) . It will take a wide bow to see the pattern with that skin!
African Python. If you hunt in Florida you may find one, according to some of the news reports they did not all die in the last freeze.
If they live in Florida, they will be all over the south sooner or later. I think we need to start an annual Trad Gang Python hunt in Florida to help out.
I'm standing next to a 10' door of the shop. It will back several bows!
Man, I am liking Michigan more and more everyday.
How'dyou come buy that Mike? hunting at the zoo?
HAHAHAHAHAHAH!

:eek: :eek: :eek:
That would definitely depress my hunting or 3D pleasure. Do they bite or squeeze?

At that size, does it really matter? :eek: :eek: :eek: That would definitely be a very unique pattern to see on a bow though!
is that thing mounted on a bow right now. whats the draw lenth lol.
Paul Bunyan is back and Mikes building him bow LOL
Best kind of snake there is A DEAD ONE!
Mike'
Now you know that is a 8' door and not no 10'! Who you trying to kid... :laughing:
8' or 10' - who cares? That's a damn big snake. He wouldn't have to bite or squeeze, because a heart attack would take me out!
Instead of going to Florida, can I come up North and shoot with you guys?
We need some good close up pics, when you get that big boy onto some bows.
Come up to Illinois. We don't have big fellas like that. Just some king snakes and moccasins. Here and there a rattler. Can deal wiht those but prefer not to
sam
If I ever saw a snake when hunting that big it would not need to bite or squeeze to kill me.My heart would shut down before he could get close to me! :scared:
Huh and to think I don't like garter snakes! :eek:
Isn't the skin a little thick for limb backing?
That should be some awesome looking bows! I have always thought that Anaconda skin would look great on a bow - especially a green futurewood Bear!
Sam,
come on up to NY hunt but beware we have the biggest, ugliest, nastiest, slippery, crooked snake there is. its called the political tax snake and it will not stop untill it squeezes every last nickle out of ya!
I'll take you up on that Ken. I thought it was the NYC Mayorsnake, however.
I used to live in Carmel and remember some fairly large rattlers in the woods here and there. Nothing like a python. Only thing close to a python seemed to be the County Assessor Snake. I fixed that problem by moving out to rural Illinos. Never looked back.
We have some pretty nice whitetail deer here too. And very few snakes. Maybe the Chicagosnake.
Thanks
sam
Any close up picks of that skin Mike :bigsmyl:
Looks like a good one Bud, What kind hard to tell in the pick.
Tracy
Hey Mike-
If I bought that skin, would you happen to have a matching one for my upper limb also?
Thanks!
