Title: Bull Penis as sinew source? Resurected w/ pic (sorry)
Post by: DuBois on August 28, 2013, 04:14:11 pm
OK, I must not be the first to ask this but can you get good sinew from the dong? :o ;D
I am thinking there must be some reason it won't work but have never heard it mentioned either good or bad.

 :laugh: I generally chew the sinew when getting ready to wrap points or feathers. Think I'd have to pass on that one. It's a macho thing!!!

If you put snake skins over your pizzle backed snakewood bow it would be a genuine snake bow then.

I'm betting you would have to re-tiller it after you used the Viagra. Ed

Did you actually expect to get a straight answer?  I investigated this and according to Wikipedia there is tendon in there but they dry the whole (WHOLE!!!!) thing so there is a bunch of other stuff in there too. Maybe too much trouble. Not to mention the ribbing you would take as long as you owned the bow.

OK DuBois you got your answer. I think this subject is getting a bit out of hand.

It started out of hand and has gotten worse.  For once I am going to excercise restraint and not chip in.  I have tried editing a couple of lines that are running around in my head, but fact remains this is a family site and I don't wanna get my first off-line warning. 

My head hurts now.

Man you guys really bit on this one big time. I love these responses LMAO...... I didn't realize this topic would get such a great swelling of responses (sorry, I had to) >:D
I am in possession of one bison penis (no joke) and just thought I would ask.

DuBois, you asked a legitimate question but if I let this banter go on the FCC would have shut us down.  ::)   I'm sure I could come up with a remark also but this site isn't the place for it.
  Check out the PaleoPlanet suggestion.

OK, I'm done  :embarassed:.
I really do have access to more so I thought I would see if it had been done.
I did check the other site and it actually has been done, so I will proceed and try to be a bit more PC when I update on if it works out well.
Thanks to all who responded, it was fun for a while  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

If it stays reflexed for more than 4 hours you need to call a Dr.  :o ;D ;D ;D :laugh:

Well, I just couldn't let it go  :-[ :-[

I nailed it up in the shed and after dry time of months I remembered it was there and got to work on it.

Very hard to pull apart and actually had to use a vice and knife to get the end started coming apart. Took a lot of work to get a total of an Oz. of sinew and it doesn't pull off in long strands well.

I think I may try this one more time and attempt to stretch it out and scrape out the insides of a couple of these rascals and keep them all in one wide long and flat piece that could be glued on with a splice in the grip.

As I took the pliers to it it seemed to have some areas that came off in wide sheets that I think would be awesome for some kind of sinew patch since the fibers are more unidirectional than linear, and other fibers seemed like normal sinew. There were also some fibers that became just like a rubber band when wet (shriveled up real short and then stretched real long until the limit and then no give whatsoever)

I put some of the wider bits in some beet juice and dyed em just for the heck of it.

Well then, that concludes it. Yes you can get sinew from the dong.

I foresee "The Donger" bow eventually coming from this batch.

Thank you for your time...GOod day

Bull   >:(  soup is a delicacy in some cultures. I'd personally trade my bag of dicks for a bag of deer legs and make leg sinew.

I tried my best to make a serious post, but it's almost impossible given the subject.

This has been a great laugh but I really was serious when I asked the initial question, and I think I have arrived at an answer.

Yes you can.

Not as time efficient as leg or back sinew and probably not as good for performance either.
awesome posts but in all seriousness, wouldnt it be more like a rawhide backing than a sinew one? 

I'm guessing it would be somewhere closer to sinew performance but much more work than a rawhide backing and not really worth the extra work unless you want a novelty bow.

I do plan to try scraping the meat out of 2 fresh ones and applying them whole to each limb on a real short bow and then seeing what kind of reflex it will pull into. That seems like the only way to make it worth messing with again.

Post by: paco664 on October 31, 2016, 12:41:26 pm
being totally serious now..

i've never put sinew on a bow.. that looks like a pretty large amount of sinew you extracted... would that be enough to back an entire bow?

This reminds me of the katana Howard Clark made using a Walrus oosick for a hilt, if you don't know what an oosick is, feel free to look it up, lol.

Title: Re: Bull Penis as sinew source? Resurected w/ pic (sorry)
Post by: Urufu_Shinjiro on November 01, 2016, 10:49:15 am
Knowing Clark's work, I'd say in the hands of a skilled swordsman no bamboo or tatami would stand a chance. It's been a fantasy of mine to one day own a Howard Clark or a Michael Bell katana.
