The jig pattern used on Poor Folks Bows is great. Always worked for me.

Re: A small but long awaited milestone.
Never taken them with a bow but they are one of my favourite quarry with a bang stick. Their whole body is the size of the kill zone in a pig so you have to shoot straight.......

Great outcome Kevin. Abbey proved themselves in this matter, it would have been relatively easy for them to duck.

Re: THE BOW BUILDER'S BOOK - Fleming Alrune et al.
Mine turned up while we were away but was safely on the doorstep when we got home. My eldest son is looking at making a series of bows and arrows for his HSC woodwork so it would be great to have historic styles to show the history, technical advances and his woodwork. This book looks like it will b...

Re: Finished Woomera longbow and some tackle.
Most impressive. Really like your bow quiver it is so unique and really shows off your resourcefulness.
Did you want solid arrow knocks? You can save horn by just using a thin sliver at right angles to the string slot.

Re: Oops. Not a good look
I actually agree that the hunting legislation was badly set up and for the wrong reason. O'Farrel needed a vote from the Hunters and Fishers so opens the national parks regardless of all the ill feeling toward hunters this will generate.
