Found a long lost old friend

[Mudd]

There was a thread about showing your selfbows and one of the posts was about some bows that made their reappearance after hiding for a long time in a bow tube.

Well I got me to thinking and digging around, sure enough I found one of my old favorites.

A selfbow made for me by Loyd Lippert.

60" sinew backed and covered with copperhead skins.

I got most of the dirt cleaned off of it and made it a new string.

It shoots just as well today as it ever did.








God bless,Mudd

Speaking of old friends....I managed to get my old Firefly longbow back in a trade about a month ago. I sold it a couple years back when my brain farted and have regretted it since. It has made it's rounds on the classifieds and ended up in Oregon before it came home. Now I have one more old friend I would like to get back. It's a Quillian Bamboo Longhunter that cracked in the handle and Dean Torges fixed for me. I didn't trust it and sold it. I talked to a fellow that had it a few years back and that bow has killed just about every big game animal in North America. I just want her back so I can apologize to her.

Question.....why did you have that hidden away all this time, that's a neat bow and should have been used or hunted at least. Glad you got the old girl back out!     Have fun with it!!
