"Westcoast Relic" Sinew backed Rocky Mountain Juniper

[Peacebow_Coos]

Looks like a well aged piece wizard goat, I like that finish job.  Juniper and sinew is a hard combo to beat in my book.

Impressive bow there Wizardgoat!
And what beautiful country you have to harvest the timber, I would love to get over there one day........
Thanks for sharing..

You gave that piece of wood the respect it deserved. Very nice bow!
...and nice pictures too

[wizardgoat]

Thanks for the kind words guys, I really appreciate it!
Zion - the wood was cut 20 minutes outside of Pentiction.  We didnt find anything good until we went way up high
Falcon and Timbo - totally forgot to mention the arrows. Dan Wakolbinger aka bowmo knapped the points. They are 3 different kinds of cherts, not sure what. The shafts are ocean spray.
Tree Ninja - This was my 4th sinew bow, second sinew/juniper bow.
Carson - I was surprised actually how quick and easy it is to make a sinew string. They shoot actually pretty well, and just feel right on these kinds of bows.
             I think my strings may be a little over built, I havent seen any others in person to compare. Better over built than under built I suppose

Great bow. Sinew/juniper is an amazing combo!
I'm coming to B.C. next year.....man I can NOT wait!

Man that thing looks killer. You must have a pile of backstrap sinew or something...the little whitetail leg tendons I have are short and a pain in the rear to try to make strings with. Super nice looking set up all around.

Oh yea, and those points are Pedernales, Georgetown, and Keokuk

Really cool looking bow. I like that weathered look you created with the paint.

[wizardgoat]

Thanks guys
Mike - will you be in Vancouver?
Dan - ya they're MUCH easier with back straps

[Forest_Farmer]

That is one sweet looking abo bow, arrows and string!  Well done! 
It gives me incentive to work on a Osage stave I have with super thin rings.  I think it's crying out to be sinew backed. 
Great work goat!!

Thanks guys. Jimmy, I don't know the exact location off the top of my head. We were hiking the old train track paths that go around the lake
It was near penticton, and close to the very top of the mountain.
4" branch over 100 years old.

I like it! That is primitive archery!

Great job!
