good looking bows. Where are you at in AR? Do you have a son named Justin?

Mike,

Where did you get the idea for the designs?  I have an old (came into my family about 1920 or so) 48" bow, made of unbacked juniper, I think.  It has similar designs on the belly (the back is too faded to see the designs). It even has a small piece of the rawhide string atatched.

Your bows are stunning, by the way.

Highnoonhunter, thank you for putting that on for me I can't get it to work for me. DWMWMB, I am in Van Buren right on the OK. line and no son named Justin.
Phil that is a neat bow and no doubt the real deal. I got the idea for the art work on mine from a bow that Ed Scott and I built in NM. back in Ja.
I just found out today that I drew mule deer and antelope tags in WY so I will be there the 15th of August for a week for the antelope then again the first full week in Sep. for the deer. I busted it up this year to try and kill bigger animals and to enjoy the trip more. Its hard on my hunting buddy to hit it as hard as I like to do so the break between the two will let him get over the antelope before we start in on the mule deer.

Beautiful bows Mike!
To me, the ultimate challenge in bowhunting is not how far away you can succesfully make a killing shot but rather how close you can get to the animal before shooting.

The antelope mojo is right. I have been wanting to build these bows ever since the first trip I took to Wyoming and have just now done it. They are special to me for sure.

Dang, Mike, I missed this thread while I was off bear huntin'.  Those are some really sharp bows, glad you're gettin' two full weeks to chase the critters....
