Don't know how you keep coming up with new ways to improve a great design.  I really like this one!  Perfect compliment to Benjy's shafts  

My Bear Quest arrow specks and total outfit:

1)  Main arrow is a raw cane shaft that I made with four turkey feathers, 125gr 8 gauge copper wire inserted in the head of the hollow cane shaft plus the 140gr St Charles Mikey Finn broadhead = 725gr

2)  Two backup Benjy cane arrows with my 300gr forged broadheads = 750gr ea

3) St Charles Thunderbird bow 48#@28 and Eagles Flight beaver tail three arrow quiver

4) If all else fails, there's always my forged Bear Sticker    :eek:    tippit

 

 

 

You are a man of many talents, with lots of Yankee ingenuity and craft ability!

Gotta be neat to work with metal! All I can mess with is wood and not so well with that these days...but Wow!

Very cool, Kemo Sabe!

Is that a lefty bow with a righty quiver?  It is a wonderful looking setup you have.

The bow was made to shoot either RH or LH.  I shoot RH.

Tippit,

That bow is just plain cool. It's got some serious character.  I can't compete with that but I figured we need to keep this thread going so I'm going to post some pictures as well.  
I finished my arrows for this trip with a little help from onestringer and his arrow wraps.
 

Been working on sharpening up my Simmon's Treesharks. They are shaving off hair after using a chainsaw file and a steel on them.  Hopefully, I can get them where they will pop those hairs off with ease. By June 10th they better be scary sharp.    

 

I've even started laying gear out to start the process of getting everything packed. I'm sure I'll end up taking a bunch of stuff I won't use and realizing when I get on the plane that I forgot something.      
 

Is that a Thermacell in that box in the back Chris?  I hope so!

Very cool stuff guy's........

I love looking at pics of hunting equipment all laid out.

Tippit.......That bow, arrow, knife, combo is just the berries.          

Chris....  I love the arrow's, keep the pics coming.  

I really like your latest tradepoint design. It is very similar to what I am making from saw blades. Of course I got the idea to make my own from watching your post on tradepoints. I cant forge...yet. I traded Pat B for some cane shafts and will have a similar look for this fall, will be following post to see how your 3to1 design on cane works for you. Good luck and great looking gear with wonderful meaning.

Good luck on the hunt,I really like your setup should provide some positive results.

That's some mean looking equipment you guys have there...kind of feeling sorry for those bears..kinda  

Less than 10 days to go!
