Great bow... also useful for knocking someone on the head where appropriate! ;D

Oh, how couldn't I think on this. I thought for combing a new hair style or using as  a coat hook.
I like your idea much better!

The funny thing is that stick looks incredible thick and everybody thinks on super high poundage and of course on high mass.

Cool! Tie grass clumps to the stumps for extra camo!

Hi Simon.  Sorry I didn't respond back earlier.  It was a typo with the question mark...the tiller looks splendid.  Yes, I was curious about the bio-debris pile.  We don't really have something like that here in S FL.  We just have the dump!

Bow is very interesting. :)  Sorry for the confusion.

No problem, Steve.
Bio-container: each municipality sorts garbage into several categories. Bio - trash is one of them. I always look there because sometimes there are really rare woody plants among them.


Thanks a lot Gents!

What a cool bow!  I agree that it would make a great club in a scrape.
