I finally got all my gear ready:



A hickory selfbow with a hemp string copied after the Sudbury bow, but with the addition of a leather handle and a small wedge of wood covered in buckskin for an arrow rest.

Some unadorned arrows with Wensel Woodsmans

A quiver made from some PVC pipe and a few odds and ends I had laying around.

I can't *WAIT*.

/Dad made the bow, I put on the handle and made everything else.

Very nice...good luck to you...

Good luck, nice.

Sweet looking setup     Best of luck to ya  

Thanks guys!  

I'd already have been out (somehow) if I had a good place in the Northern Zone of NY to hunt.  

I normally hunt in the Southern zone.  

Any NY hunters have a line on a decent area in the Glens Falls, Lake George, Saratoga region?

By the way, my son has been getting ready too:



He still has a few years to practice, though.
