Nice shooting Nick, wish I still had open property to shoot on like that here.  You go into a field around here with a bow, someone is calling the cops.  Is that a bow you made?

Cool bows. Thanks for sharing. I was wondering why all the warbow guys use the drastic body movement when shooting as opposed to just drawing it like a normal hunting bow?

hey oldbow! thanks for your comment! now give my arrow back!!!  :'(  :p

thanks jesse, I can't reach 32" draw with my normal-huntnig-bow draw, and with these heavy weights you just happen to shoot IN the bow, or you won't shoot it at all ;)

thanks Blacktail, but I think you mean mary-rose bow right? :p
