Having killed Roosevelt, rocky mtn and Columbia blacktail with rifle, muzzleloader, and compound bow, I’ve decided to take the next step, with a recurve... I was able to talk a local bowyer that does a very limited number of bows for folks, to build me a bow. I decided on tigerwood and local curly maple for the riser and tigerwood for the limbs. It’s coming along quite nicely..... photo sharing

That looks like a good future hunting bow he is crafting. Doing it with wood arrows makes it even more challenging. Trad is my preferred method of "Eliting" (Some call it bowhunting) animals. Good luck with the new weapon. Unless your a strapping lad used to such a draw weight with no letoff you might regret 60# but since you can replace the limbs with lighter ones, you will have a way to go down in weight if you find it too much. In spite of how much I shoot both compound and trad, I can shoot all weekend at 65# with a compound but 50# with a longbow is far more taxing on the body.

I could probably get by with a 70lb recurve princess..... hint....

One of my first bows was a high country Xcaliber with custom 110 lbs limbs.. fuuckers looked like 2x4’s bolted to the riser....

Back when I was a kid in the early 80's the higher weights were no problem. Now in my mid 50's Im shooting 65# but with this bowtech 70# would be a non factor in warm weather but with a longbow, its a whole other bllgame. Ive been shooting trad for 45 years and learned late in life that I shoot so much better and constantly in the 48 to 50 lb range and have no problems passing through deer and bear with that weight. Too much draw weight can lead to poor form and follow through and I prize repeatable accuracy above all. (even pride) Ive coached a lot of strong guys to better shooting just by having them drop the draw weight. When you have been doing this for more than 4 decades, you pick up things.

I guess I’m kinda a phenom, I’m 43 and gettin stronger... I’m sure 60 will be no problem...

I hope you enjoy your new bow. Last summer I sold the last of my heavy recurves, 5 of them, all over 50lbs..... I have been on your journey, having bows from Bruin, Checkmate, New Wood etc. I now am shooting a 40lb long bow, which will kill well within 20 yards............ I love to shoot anything, that launches an arrow...... show the pics when its done

What kind of longbow you shooting? I'm going down in weight too.
I don't know if anybody told you but your draw length will get a bit shorter. I went from 29 1/4 to 26 1/2 . with my long bow. I'm looking at the great northern ghost recurve, short, fast light. have fun

Yes most that go from compound to trad dont understand the shorter draw length and the lesser pounds they will be able to pull. They have bows made only to regret being overbowed. If Ive seen it once, Ive seen it a hundred times. Pride keeps them from correcting their mistake and they develop bad habits, they get frustrated and give up. Its a consistent track for guys that wont listen to people who have been at this for many decades.

Or maybe they shot real good with more weight when they were younger,maybe even good enough to win some State competitions,but after a few years they need to drop some draw weight, Just saying.
I do agree that any new trad shooter should start real light,45 lbs about max,with 35-40 even better.
I used to hunt with a 60 at 28 Howatt Hunter. I was shooting full length 2117 XX75s drawing close to 32". The bow was tough to draw until I practiced for a couple of months, I would go out and shoot 6 or 8 arrows every time I thought about it. several times a day. Bought one of those Bowfit rubber band things and used it at work every night when I couldn't shoot. 60 is definitely doable you just have to work up your muscles and use proper technique. By the way that is going to be a beautiful bow.

It is really a nice bow. I'm glad it wasn't purple heart and Osage. Boy,I've seen some guys pick some crap combinations. I think even beginning bowyers should tell clients hat looks good and what won't,even if it's what they really want.
You sure hit the nail on the head about PROPER TECHNIQUE, though I think it's most often referred to as form. That's the problem with a heavy bow. You will get tired and sloppy and likely develop bad habits that will be a lot harder to cure later. It really is a lot like shooting a rifle. A beginning archer doesn't need 60 lbs,anymore than a beginning shooter needs to start with a 300 win mag. You start off on a 22 and get your form down,then you gradually build up to whatever is the best for your game that you can shoot without getting sloppy in your form.
They say Howard Hill shot over 100 lbs routinely. He wasn't a huge man either,but he had shot endless hours for years building up to those weights. It's a different set of muscles that will grow, just don't start out too heavy and handicap yourself. I'm a big buy 6'3 slightly slouching,and 270 of not all fat. When I started getting serious about learning to shoot well,I started with a real cheap 40 lb bow and it was all I needed to hold while trying to get everything right. At this same time I hunted with a 85 lb compound,and had previously owned a 60 lb recurve bow that I had thought was light enough until, I started being taught by guys who had won national matches.

+1, the sooner you realize that shooting consistently has more to do with finesse than brute strength, the sooner you will become a competent barebow shot.
A true sportsman counts his achievements in proportion to the effort involved and fairness of the sport. - S. Pope
Back in the old days & my last compound, I was shooting a Hoyt Pro Vantage with 50% let off set at 82 pounds with 2512's.
So based on that, my first custom recurve I bought had 68# limbs, and found it was too much. So I had a set of 62# limbs made for it. Once I settled into my shooting style, I used the 68's for elk hunting, and saved the 62's for deer at home in the cold. Soon there after, I had him build me another riser, so I could have two bows ready to go, and/or a backup for out of state hunts.
After several years, I sold both of those, and I ordered a new one to my specs, and specified it at 58#.
Fast forward several years, and I took it in to have it refinished, and asked him to drop the weight while he was at it. The weight is now at 54#.
My original longbow he had built for me was at 57#, and was OK, but when I had him build me a new one, I ordered around 50#, it came in at 52# which is just about right for me these days.
Yes, as many are agreeing, I think the OP is in for a shock and will be ordering lower weight limbs. (we will never hear that part of the story though) Of he will stick with 60#, be overbowed and develop bad habits and give up (as I predicted in an earlier post). He will chicken neck trying to bring his face to the string instead of developing proper form.
Pride goes before the fall.
He will protest this.
I wont care. Ive seen it repeat itself over and over and over and over by all manner of guys that thought they knew what they were doing when they desired to dabble in trad.

Shart things, I guess this thread is to show a new custom recurve in its stages of being built, at no point have I asked for advice. Ol man got me my first recurve at age 8, I killed a woodpecker with it a couple days later... I've shot trad off n on for 35 years now, but just recently the fire really got rekindled...
So, if I were you, I'd be a little more concerned with that turkey gobbler restricting your breathing than worried about me driving arrows through the highly elusive Columbian blacktail and Roosevelt elk...... Hint

You are again mistaken speed racer. I offered a prediction and a warning. You took it as advice (you need lots of that). It is a work of art that he is making. Ive never had somebody make a trad bow for me. I make my own.

Most recent kill was my 2016 Black bear with a bow I made and arrows I made using feathers from turkey I killed and Homemade broadheads I made from 7 1/4" circular saw blades and the finger tab I made from an old boot upper. The bow is a 48 Pound reflex/deflex I designed.
I won the hunt at a banquet. Ive never used a bear guide for any of my other bear. Ive taken 5 with a bow so far. (Never killed a bear with a gun and don't have the desire to) On the drive home I killed a 2nd smaller bear with my truck so I took that one home as well.
I self filmed the hunt. 20 heard heart shot.

The woods I used for that bow are South American hardwoods. The riser is made from Bubinga, Bloodwood and good old American hard rock maple from a tree my Dad cut many years ago. Sort of a legacy piece of wood, cut by my Dad, Made into a bow by me . I also used some of the Maple in the limbs.
this is the order in which I stacked the layers.
I used spring clamps because C-clams get loose during the heating process when the glue oozes out. (trust me, there is a lot of oozing) Spring clamps keep a constant pressure at all times.
Next, I ran the block through my table saw to square it up and remove the excess glue.
Then I drew the riser pattern on the wood and cut it out with a band saw and sanded the fade outs on a drum sander.

You asked and wanted to see my gear and some kills. I had my first trad kill in 1974. (it was a mouse.) I still have that bow.
This is from a recent youth event I ran. 4 of the bows in that pic are my homemades. I built my first trad bow in 1988 (30 years ago). The year Fred Bear died.
Ive been doing this a very long time and set up many archers and saw many guys switch to trad only to fail because pride had them overbowed. Ive seen it over and over and over.
I teach archery (archery merit badge, 4H shooting sports, Youth events I run or volunteer at, guys that come to my house referred by others I have set up, etc)

I got my bear with a bow that year. My younger brother got his with a old Marlin lever gun and my older brother got his bear with a 1895 Winchester 30-40 krag . All three of us scored that year.

You killed a bear with your truck, and deer over an illegal bait site?
Yes to the bear with the truck. No to the deer over an illegal bait pile. I did however get a citation back in 2012 for feeding deer before the gun deer season. There was no corn present when I got my citation (hence the feeding prior to season citation) He looked (boy did he look. He was tipping over leaves hoping to find some but in the week prior, the deer licked it all up. His words
"Since there is no corn present now, Im going to cite you for feeding"
Sorry to burst your bubble. I know how badly you wanted it to be a baiting citation.
Maybe next time?

[quote=sharp_things] You bait animals to "hunt"???? WOW.......
Every Bear Ive killed over the years has been with bait. I don't care to hunt with hounds even though that is popular here. The other method (perhaps more popular in WI) is with bait. Ive been doing it that way since the 80's. Its a typical method of taking bear. Perhaps someday if you want to take up bear hunting, we can teach you about that too.

Actually 48# longbow. It really kills stuff dead and is a joy to shoot.
That was a 75# PSE in the bear pic. Notice the short aluminum arrows? That was back when overdraws were popular.

So since you have never killed a bear with a bow, you post a pic of a fat kid with a young elk thinking we will think its a bear????? Help me out here. What were you going for?
Fat kid with young elk = bear with a bow.
I know you younglings are taught that new math but son that chit don't add up. Hahahahahahah.

The fat drooling kchunt, to answer your question. No I’ve never baited a bear. Or killed a bear over bait, just seems like killed a farm animal doin it that way....

You keep posting pics of a fat turd with "NOT BEAR" pictures.
Thats not how this works. That not how any of this works. Now bet back to the web and see if you can copy a pic somebody else posted that you can claim is yours.

I don’t feed animals and I don’t hint behind high fences. Got it?

Bear are never hunted in high fence operations. Neither are Vancouver Bull or any of the deer Ive taken or the Polynesian hogs Ive taken.
I did once kill a water buffalo in a tiny 20,000 acre "cage"
Surely even a uber fat, lard pot like you can figure that out.
Anyway, when somebody else makes that bow for you, and you grow a set and want to try bear, come back son, we will set you on the right path so you don't have to steal others pics off the web.
I like helping newb younglings like that.

I'm sorry if I had anything to do with that because of my speech about draw weight and my experience. I didn't necessarily mean it for the OP,I didn't even know the weight the OP had ordered. I was just speaking in general to new archers.
No I’ve never baited a bear. Or killed a bear over bait, .
That is a great answer to a question nobody asked.
Have you ever killed a bear with a bow and arrow? Its really simple. The lard may be blocking your ability to figure it out.
The lard is blocking vision for sure, if only obviously.....

The kid is so wounded he aint even using English any more. HAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAAHA.
Get some sleep lard boy. I will hand you your azz some more tomorrow. In the meantime. Look online for a pic of a fat kid with a bear and a bow and try to pass that off as yours.
Oh and congrats on that dude you were hugging. You guys looked happy together.
I will drop you on your head again tomorrow.
Out.

Ron, Why do you care whether Jud is pulling a 45, 50, 65, 75, or 80 pound string? You’ve seen how big he is. And, he’s not tilting the scales on the fat and flabby side either...Jud’s built more akin to the kind of dude you want to avoid at all costs, unless you have a gun or better yet two guns at the ready...Simple, mental decoder alarms should be going off in your brain informing your soul that this guy you’re poking at could easily put damage upon your body that medical care might have a hard time correcting...
If Jud wasn’t such a nice guy, who’s gainfully employed, with a solid family and a love for all things related to firearms, hunting, and his freedom...He could easily be that dude with nothing to hold him back from hurting a smart assed forum troll who jumps on others threads to create a pissing match...
You flamed his thread and you did it for your own personal entertainment thinking you’re making him look inexperienced around trad bows, and archery in general...You didn’t accomplish your goal, at least to the rest of us Fire members...
We all know Jud...We know he’s an extremely skilled and passionate hunter who kills a schit ton of free roaming wild game animals. He does it legally and consistently year after year covering many species and often going on DIY out of state hunts when he draws tags,,,Do you have a clue how difficult an out of state DIY hunt can be? They’re challenging and hard for reasons you can google up for your own self improvement. Point is, Jud also fills tags on these DIY hunts because he’s spent a lifetime dedicated to hunting, shooting and archery...
Ron, you’re just a strange dude. You have skills and talent in the making of things..Yes, you make a lot of interesting stuff, but you struggle making a connection with people, especially people who hunt..That’s troubling to me and others. It should be troublesome to you even more so...
I wish you well, I really do. And, I hope you figure out quickly that you are missing an opportunity to been seen as valued resource for information and ideas on all things archery...I don’t really know what your first step would be to getting yourself squared away but maybe consider not acting like an arrogant sack of dicks for starters......Beaver10 😎
Curiosity Killed the Cat & The Prairie Dog “Molon Labe”
I'd say a quick email to "deer and deer hunting" magazine and to all of the companies affiliated with him thats he's discussed on here, with a link to his posts on here would be useful...
I can't believe Ron wants to get personal.....lol Jud, don't sweat this toolbox. He has me on ignore because I know personal info that has made him shed tears. Do some googling under his name, all of his user names and kids names. You will get more reading material and pics that you can stand. He is a broken man that craves attention.
I'd like to see the officer Barry Meister come set the record straight on ol saggy eyes. The neighbors obviously tipped off the DNR on him. Liked as well at home as he is here. Lmao
Haha, the legally blind sweat hog, just mightta stroked out last night!! Culls will be culls......

I'd love to see him suck air on a hike farther than from his Ikea closet smoker to the fridge....
Then you should have been with me a few months ago up at 9,000 feet bowhunting in the saddle between Moana Loa and Moana Kea on the big Island of Hawaii. I was hunting wild, free range (no fence) Vancouver bulls and Polynesian hogs. Very few people have ever taken a Vancouver bull with a bow. Before I arrived a bowhunter from Alaska hoped to fulfill his bucket list by being one of the few to take such a bull with archery gear. He got an arrow into one and it turned on him, killing him. Now you may want to think, "that cant be true.Ill bet lots of people have taken a wild Vancouver bull with archery gear. I'l bet he is making that up."
I would invite you to search the web for terms such as "bowhunting Vancouver bulls" or "Vancouver bull bowhunting". You will read about and see pictures of me and pics of guys with guns that have taken the wild bulls but not much else.
Jim Shockey went after the bulls and took a small one but used a muzzle loader. If people do go after these wild bulls, the weapon of choice is a firearm because nobody wants to get close to them. The guide said I would be the first bowhunter he had ever guided for, for a Vancouver. The air was thin and the footing dishonest but I did well on that hunt. So, I wish you could have been there since (as you state) this is a love of yours to see.
FYI, city boys that don't have a clue about animals or wild game will make the mistake of thinking that is s a "COW" since everything is a cow to them. In the Bovine family, the males are bulls and the females are cows. I killed a bull (male) don't look like a city boy and embarrass yourself by calling a male, a cow. Just like you would not call a bull elk, a cow elk.
Now that bull resides on the wall with my other bow kills.

Yes, that is a good idea. Let me know if you need help with the list of affiliates. If I were you I would start with Innovative Outdoorsman. Contact Jake and tell him everything. Link pics and copy what what posted.
At Deer and Deer hunting, you will want to contact Dan.
Best of luck and let me know if you need assistance. You can do this.

actually I was swamped yesterday with customers wanting help getting ready for bowhunting. On guy that has hunted all over the globe is leaving soon for Africa and needed help. (I outfitted him on his Free range American Bison hunt) and he wants to use those same arrows but my Cutthroat Broadheads that I recently used on "adult" sized game for his Cape buffalo hunt and he wanted them razor sharp so he came back to my shop for help. This was the bison he took with items I designed and made for that hunt,

settle down fat boy. The lard is cutting off the blood to your brain. You were on Maui (low elevation). I was on the mountain on the big island. You should try hunting up there some day since you seem clueless. hint
