Same war bow as the first series of pics. 130+ at 32" but the owner has a little bit shorter draw and had them cut 31" to the beginning of the pile. It was his "light" bow for target shooting. He prefers 160+ lol. Great guy. Super nice and knew his stuff.

Cool pictures Correy! I shot that war bow last year too. Very smooth draw. The fellas name is John Murry.

P.S. I told you I was bad with names. Next year I will have more scrapers, with a different Weld on the handles that even you can't break >:D Patrick

No worries! John! That's his name. I thought it was Jeff for some reason so I didn't say anything. Hard for anyone to remember names when you're meeting so many new people in a matter of minutes.

That sucker was sooo smooth. I couldn't believe it. Completely dead in the hand. Shooting that bow was a rare treat for me! I'll honestly probably never have a yew stave so that was my once in a lifetime opportunity.

This image should come with a warning label for persons of French extraction as they are likely to pee their bitches and soil themselves a bit when they see it!  ...and GAWD FORBID that one should ever be posted from the business end perspective, ...we'd have a veritable epidemic of Pierre's, Jaque's, and Sebastian's with spontaneous coronaries!

More pictures!

A little flute music by Onebowwonder and his wife Laura.

I got to enjoy a little old Tim music from these brothers.

I got to watch Onebowwonder string a drum. He done this while it rained. There was no need to wet the rawhide! That's my wife on the right.




Bowes wasn't all that was being made this year.

Still more to go!

I done a draw knife and scraper sharpening demonstration Friday and Saturday.

Well this is all I have on my phone. But my sister in law just told me that she took over 140pics. I'll go through them and see if there is any cool ones. Mojam 2015 was a awesome time, only 51 weeks till next year! Patrick

I just got a couple pix from the new home of the drum I made at MOJAM.  This skin certainly dried in nicely!
