I made it a long time ago ..and took a few deer with it. I'll be hunting the bow again this year.
Real neat outfit. Hope you have a successful year.
Great looking bow! May it bring you as much luck as it did in the past... :archer:
Very nice job on the bow, good luck this season..........James
This was my first bow that I made that I hunted with. Its a simple D bow. The first deer was a button buck . I wish I mounted it. I have killed many nice bucks with other bows I made and used flint tipped arrows ..but this old friend (made about 25 years ago) is still my "FIRST" Its time again to take it out for a walk and remember times when things were "SIMPLE". ...Jeff p.s. The late Jay Massey from Alaska loved this bow.He always wanted to hold it when I ran into him at shows and shoots. He made many bows .but he liked the simple ones. I'll think of him when that flint head fly's this season ..Happy hunting Jay !!!!!
