That bottler mate! Corker of a bow. Give it a burl.
I couldn't resist. You down there have the best sounding slang.
I try to use it and sound like a mug.
Thanks for the pictures. A really beautiful bow.

  Really nice!!!

What a beauty.....        
Truly a class piece of work.  Love the tips.  Love the riser too.  He oughtta be proud of that one.  A compound would never be as good lookin' as that.  Stunning.....      

This might be taboo..
You got me thinkin Joekeith.
What about an all wood compound..??
Takedown type riser with wood limbs.
Don't want to hi-jack just thinkin..

Darn nice bow buddy.

Gorgeous bow, it sounds like you have the boy trained well and making sound decisions at a young age.

I once had the pleasure of participating in the U.S. vs. Australia Stump Shooting World Championship in Tully Queesnland.

Seems the Aussie team was one man short, so I volunteered to be an Aussie for a day.

Anyway, once we thoroughly humiliated the U.S. wankers, er, "team," I had the chance to shoot one of my Aussie teammates' Huntsman recurve.

It was a killing machine, and it looked as deadly as it shot. Great bows! 10,000 dead Australian wild boars can't be wrong!

How old is Samuel now bud?

Beautiful bow and a great tradition getting started....one day we'll be reading stories of your grand child shooting "Stepping Stone"

G'day Lads,

Ric: maaaaate...lol.... I remember hearing about that very same shoot from Bill's place. Super times and fond memories.

Curt, Sambo is 12 mate....


Cheers all,

Gotta run!

I'm glad you brought this back up, Al, as I missed it the first time round being out-bush about then, I reckon. Your boy has good taste in bows, for sure.

Awsome bow and story.Also glad you brout it back up.

I like that finish. Phil

Al, not only is that a beautiful bow, but a great gift to your son getting him started into trad archery.  He will undoubtedly cherish the bow long after he outgrows those limbs and will look back on these days as great memories of good times with Dad....living, learning and loving.  I wish you many days of happiness (and good hunting!) together.
 

Great post, great website!! Thank you for sharing!!
Cheers
