It's been in the works for a while. Another 60" Shafer Silvertip. However this one is one of Dave's new Exotic Wood risers, with a flared center. I hate to say it, but they look just like a Robertson Stykbow recurve, except with a slightly chubbier riser. It's B&W Ebony on the swells, and a gorgeous piece of Macassar through the center. The limb veneers are Macassar too. Probably around 48-50#'s on that set of limbs. Whatever it takes to shoot the various .500 spine carbons. The hunting limbs are going to be 57-58#'s with the new Super E glass in black, and backed with rattlesnake. [bleep], the wood for the riser took me 3 hours to pick out of his last shipment. Veneers were about another 2 hours on another trip. There's 300 bucks worth of wood there. It'll be close to a 1800 dollar bow by the time I'm done. It pays to live in the same town as your bowyer Speaking of cool bows... If you're window shopping... Dick Robertson has the Wolfer 3 piece on the drawing board. There might even be a prototype getting built here real soon. Sounds like a lot of trouble to shoot fake animals. Travis

Rubber deer are easier to sneak up on than real ones�
Kinda like blow-up dolls...

There were parts in that movie where I could not stop laughing.

Duck, I experienced the same phenomenon. I thought maybe it was related to the Bacardi Gold in my flask. Either way, the girls and I LOAO.

Damn, $1800 stickbow? I guess maybe I'll stick with compounds and my old Grizzly, last thing I need is another expensive hobby! We can't be friends after all.... GFY! And not in the fun way. Bring a Sawzall and a rubber fist. Sweet, my first sincere GFY...I've never felt more special! You hunt with those fancy stickbows? I shoot gophers with mine, no luck on anything bigger yet. Might try for bear this spring, but I bought a spear that I'm going to attempt to hurl into one first. Couple guys at the club caught the custom stickbow disease. Beautiful bows for sure, with prices to match. They called my Bear "The Leaf Spring". I said GFY and went home. I hate those guys.

Archers with arrogance would do well to recall the effectiveness of bows pitched into battle with Winchesters and such.
And of course, never underestimate the potential of belt fed against the masses. Many do, much to their dismay.

I was hoping one of you wankers would notice a little class.
I knew I could count on you BD�.

I refuse to notice class especially since no one gave me any luv for the porky bear story. I don't post this schit for my own benefit. I'm an attention whore and somebody needs to F me.

Federal "rat shot" blue box,all brass crimped case like the old ones . DRT. By far, the better shot load for 22 rimfires. Nice work on the vermin.

Know a fella from a small town in central Georgia that went after some bats in his attic with shot. He carefully removed the vent from the gable and waited patiently.
He missed the bat but blew a hole in his roof. He was surprised that a low brass 20 bore load of #6 would do that.
I managed to contain myself until out of sight and sound.
