Title: Show Your Bent Limbs!
Post by: Wannabe1 on July 02, 2011, 02:09:00 PM
This was done quite some time back and with all the new members, I thought it would be fun to do it again and see some more bows with bent limbs. If you are new or have gotten a new bow, lets see those bent limbs!

This is the best I can do.  I usually don't take the white socks and blue flip-flops hunting!

He made that himself.  He used a hoodie of some sort (earth tones) as a base, sewed some netting on top of that and used jute (LOTS of jute) for the outside layer.

Here's a better look at his jacket.  This is also one of my fav pics of him.  It was super windy this day and it gives him sort of a Farrah Fawcett / Chewbacca windblown thing...

  (http://i240.photobucket.com/albums/ff187/GingivitisKahn/20100206_dc_01.jpg)

So as not to derail this thread - here's another shot of him bending his bow...

Feral pigs in the jungle, some goats here and there, and I've been told of feral cattle also.  A couple weeks ago I tagged along with a local that hunts pigs with his dogs and a spear in the bush.  Vegetation is pretty thick.  Would be tough to do an archery hunt in there.

Thanks Rob, not bad yourself! That Red Hawk and I are becoming real good friends. Unfortunately, I have two weeks 'til opening day and have my setup for this year. I am really tempted to hunt with it but, have yet to get it where I'd like it. Got to get those woodies properly tuned to it.    :rolleyes:

In 1969 with my Bear Grizzly and shooting like a dirty rotten stinkin' 3 fingers under shooter. I NEVER shot like that so I'm guessing I had my wife take that picture when I was experimenting. It's the only explanation I can give.

Man I love the way that flatliner is working. Somwewhere I have a picture of Howard Hill tillering a bow he made out of a Florida wood that I cannot remember the name of and it bend in the outer third just like that. Of course that is exaggerated by the 32 in draw a bit but it certainly shows how the limb is working and I bet it is one smooth , fast longbow.,

God bless, steve
