Jeff made him a new Jig to put the tapper on his knife blades, it seemed to work great.

Some relaxing around a good fire after a long day.

Got my yew bow out to 40@18 shooting for 50@26 so I am closing in on it.

Jeff working on another old ax, he loves them things especially the old ones..

Will had a guy with an Osage tree down, so of course he went to help the guy out. Nice haul, the short one he said was for Chuck.

Hope yall had a good one also. Life is Good.

Pappy,
What's the length on the Mulberry? I've got some Mulberry, but the staves are kind of short, coming in at around 61 inches

Pappy · « **Reply #11586 on:** December 01, 2014, 09:33:51 am »

nlester It is 64 t-t and 62 n-n, drawing 26 inches, probable could get a little more if you needed to I have had it out to 27.

Pappy:

If so, I need to have a talk with him.

Nice evening in the stand yesterday, seen 4 deer/ 3 doe and a basket 8 point, like has been the case most of the season none wanted to come close and play.

Birthday supper this evening for my Daughter in law so no hunting but who knows maybe tomorrow.

An evening in the woods is an evening well spent, in my opinion. I'm kinda partial to dinners as well.

Yes it does and yes they are Jesse, great to hear from you the other week,

can't wait till you can make a trip back.

Friday and headed to the farm as soon as I can get away,got a few Honey do's for Miss Joanie [new fridge delivered house and cabin] and then planning on hunting this evening if the rain holds off. I would also like to get my Yew out to 20 inches or so and back on the form for some tip flipping and a little reflex and tweaking.

Beau and I bought a new meat grinder and he is supposed to bring it down so we can set it up, need to kill a deer to test it out.

We got the biggest one Cabela's had, 1 3/4 horse and says it will grind 18-22 lbs a minute so that should get the job done in a hurry

Just a man thing I guess but I like bigger in about anything I buy it's not always better but most times it is.

Hope y'all have a good one see y'all Monday. Life is Good.

With as many deer as Beau is dropping this season you needed the heavy duty grinder.
