 Yea, that was the first one. The one lost in the tornado. I think all total there was about 2 dozen arrows made for it.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

I think that was it, Marc. Chris went by BowKinn or BK on the old board. Wonder whatever happened to him?

Yes Bowkinn was his member name.  Chris registered here a couple months ago, sent me a PM then disappeared.  Haven't heard from him since then

Here is the hickory Cayuga bow with the coral snake skin tips. Adding deflex in the handle ans recurving the tips. All done with a heat gun and olive oil. I don't have a pic of the finished bow.

Michael, that last one didn't disappear, it was auctioned off at Mojam a few years ago.

Anyone interested in getting another one started up? Or anyone for me to jump in on one? Thanks.
Is there anything better than wandering the earth with a stick and string in your hand?

 These bows are in the Twilight Zone. About once a year their whereabouts pops up for a little Teaser, then they disappear again. :-\ Maybe we can pass them on in our Wills and let our kids finish them. ;)
