He could've went a little closer, a little dirt on the shoes won't kill anybody 😂

Good looking bend bjrogg.Now I imagine the bark pops right off HHB just like hickory when cut in the spring or summer.

[bjrogg]

Yes it does Ed but I harvested this stave in Feb roughed it out to floor tiller and let it sit till now. Had to remove bark and cambium

[BowEd]

Well I like that too.The camouflage look suits me too.

That bow looks good BJ, nice work. I'll be starting one from the HHB I got from you sometime in the future. I have it setting out where I can see it at the shop thinking about what I may want to make from it.  And I always have a few cans of Bush's beans in the cupboard.

[bjrogg]

Thanks badly I got a couple 100 arrows through her now. I'm REALLY happy with her. She's fast smooth and looks good naked too. Just like those girls my momma always told me not to go out with. Lol. Glad to here you got beans in the cupboard you guy's can eat the black ones to we grow them to.

A lot of people (myself included) were working with HHB (or leaving with some) at Marshall this year. It'll be cool to see how many nice Ironwood bows come out of that one event!

Very nice job, I love HHB.

Thanks Naked Feet, and Pappy. I do really like this bow. I'm pretty busy right now still haven't done anything but shoot her, but sure have enjoyed that. I did rough one out to a heavy floor tiler for my daughter in law I'm going to call it "peachy" because whenever you ask her how's it going, her reply is always " just peachy"

[Hrothgar]

Congratulations, good looking bow! (Its always Bush's with our BBQ).

[bjrogg]

Thanks Hrothgar. My wife doctors those beans up a little with her own secret recipe. Not sure of amounts but know she puts in Ketchup up, and bacon and let them cook in turkey toaster awhile. The more time they cool down and get reheated the better they are. Might have to see if I can get her to post recipe on cooking forum.

good lookin bend bj.

[bjrogg]

Thank you Stixnstones probably need to finish her up and get some more pictures

[bjrogg]

Sorry this took so long. I finished up this bow last summer. I never did get it posted. It's way overdue.
I put one prairie rattler on that I got from Scott at Marshall. I'm to frugal to use two so I cut one in half. I put bloodwood tip overlays on. Some stain left over from my kitchen and 5 coats of truoil. I still love shooting this bows. It has had countless amount of arrows cycled through her. I hunted hard with her last fall. She has become one of my special bows. I got my first Primitive Bow white tail, a 4 point buck with her last fall October 13,2017. She even has a little blood speckled on her that I sealed on with truoil.I call her the "bean queen" because I first posted her standing in my navy bean field last summer. Pictures at long last. Thanks for looking
