Ozbow

We had our 4yr old ask us the dreaded question on Wednesday night.
'How do you make a baby'

I'd like to swap them for some 125grain heads of either ribbies, tuskers or black stumps quantity is neg for the likes of the BS's I have had these on my woods for a long while now and have never hunted with. But a few have been shot into a foam body board target. All are straight. I had started to ...

you got some pics and prices?

I also just found a 1957 New Zealand penny in the shed
Seeing as the wife is from there maybe a half kiwi half Oz penny whistle would be a great gift for my son.
Do you have a 1957 Oz penny?

Of course this is going to be pending if they are the same size and all.

Jeffro they look great.
?? whats the diamiter of the penny and thickness?
As I have a few old German 5mark coins lay around. Got to be atleast a couple of Germans on here that would like one.
Again maybe do a trade of sorts?

Happy Birthday and happy shopping to.

I see the 'Oldest Dog' got the 'Older Dog' an Old dog

Good on you Ben nice shooting.
Looking at the old boy you sure did do him a favour.

Nice shooting guys.
Moz that nanny sure has a nice winter coat on her. Did you take the skin?
If not enjoy the roasts anyway buddy.

That was great, put a bit of shine to the dull winter days here at the moment.

Thanks for sharing as always.

Oh yeah by the way i like your over head arrow storage idea.

thanks Mick,yeah the bows are in a shed,i built it under a big old mango tree,20ft.x10ft.x7h.its always cool.i spend alot of time in it :D Ok thats good. The reason that I asked is that my wife wnated me to store my bows in the shed which I refused to do. As I know that in the middle of summer it c...

Nice job they look great.

One question though....Are your bows stored in a shed? If yes, how do your bows go being out in the shed during summer?

G'day Brett, welcome back to the archery scene. As you said pitty that DOG kept you away from what you loved doing for so long, but now the drought is broken :D So I look forward to hearing about your hunting exploits both past and future with the bow. Oh yeah and please dont' forget we always need ...

nice pick up there Piggy gotta be happy with that.

Kim next time you see Glen give him a clip up the ear from me for even thinking of taking that bow to a bandsaw.

Nice looking bow you got there Kim.

Great looking bow for ya first one. Well done.

The two best unmarked pieces are about 250mm x 350mm + and a few other smaller scraps, they are that shiny mid tan colour of the old concertina briefcases but could be stripped back a bit I guess. All I need is a PM with your address and I will take them to the Post Office on Thursday and get the p...

- you really should try Lefflers, ask them for a sample offcut or two of saddle leather which is 4 to 5mm, or bridle butts 3.5 to 4mm or stirrup butts 4.5 to 5mm or rein backs, harness backs up to 5mm, or you can get what is called 'mens rumps', 5.5mmm which is for footwear. Otherwise I have some o...

Mick Couldnt be sure, but certainly the suede I bought was thick enough for a handle grip or a lightweight quiver. I have not measured but am pretty sure it is somewhere between 1 and 2mm, probably closer to 1mm just a tad over. I'll measure this evening. Mmmm not thick enough for what I need it fo...

what thickness are they?

Great job Kim.
With a bow in those colours I say it wont be long and your running around with a feather in your hair, a tomahawk and war paint on.

You could always convert

Thanks Jeff

G'day guys. I've been doing a bit of looking around for some decent and reasonably cheap suppliers of leather. I'm wanting stuff that is atleast 3mm think for a potential project I have in mind. I dont' mind if it's off cuts as long as the minimum dimensions are 1.5" X 4-5" Colour wise I'm...

Thats a good one thanks for sharing.

LP I hear ya buddy.
I live 5-10min (pending traffic) from Archery Mart.

That makes sense, All the info has been really good, hunting seems to be a bit of a 'secret society' and is hard to find info . Thanks to all who inputted. Well if it's so secret I guess could tell you about this link BUT! Then I'd have to kill you :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol: http://www.aussiebowhunte...
