New prodject for hunting( Draw pics added)
« on: July 25, 2011, 01:40:59 pm »
 8) Going Elk hunting with bow this year from horseback,Needed a new bow-case and quiver that i could use from horse. Heres what i came up with. Brain tanned leather ( Thanks Bro ) hand stitched with sinew. Tried it on horse very effective and surprisingly quiet. What Y-all think.

Looks great Katt.  Still working on a plan to come up and visit in September.  Sure wish I'd spent some time on horses, that is sounding better and better.

I like that bow a lot.
Is there any chance of a picture of the back or belly profile? Would like to have a go at a shortie but i am unsure of the best profile.

Thanks., and again nice bow.

very cool Katt :D I would like to see a front profile of the bow. I haven't made a stiff handled bow lately and your design is just what the Dr. ordered. I like to hunt off a big jinny mule that is about 15-16 hands.  every bow hunter should try it at least once.
