Yes I recall the maple as most fiddles have ” fiddleback ” in the wood , haha ,
I didn’t know about the Spruce .
Looking forward to seeing the end product

Coming along..
Do you know wether Spruce is a standard wood for American fiddles?

That is wild. Looks like you have a pretty good idea how to bring that fiddle back up to playing a tune.
I can do some of the wood working techniques, but would have no idea how it might effect the fiddles tune. Wishing you great good luck …
Pleas keep us informed..

Once again sorry for the slow response…sad day… That’s tough losing a loved one that way. I am sorry to hear it. Remember the good times with them, is what I do …
I always enjoy being in that AZ desert country.
I remember when the africanized bees showed up here in the southwest. Scared the heck out of everybody. I was around a couple of large ( swarms ) groups that just passed me by ( luckily) also drove thru a large swarm on the freeway… took a long time to clean off the truck ! Haven’t heard anything ( or seen ) about the africanized strain in years ? I read that the “interbreeding” with regular bees has basically ” watered down” the angry streak if you will…aeronut can probably give us the biological ( scientific) explanation …..

Yes, that’s the hotbed of illegal entry……( did you visit the Buffalo soldiers cemetery ?)
I have spent most of my time in the Chiricahua and the Peloncellos . Less traffic and garbage there even today. I was successful many times in both areas for Coues deer and javelina. Difficult to draw now….
All very cool places to hunt in .. Difficult now …

What part of the Coronado Natl forest were you in ?
I used to hunt there a a lot for coues deer … last time I went ( Black point ) about 8yrs ago+- saw more USBP agents than deer. Mostly long the Geronimo Trail. Did see 4 Goulds Gobblers….

in reply to: Whatcha Got Going 2023? #162846Pretty slow here also ( NM) some cold weather back to back, so I haven’t been shooting much.
Need to build some more arrows so I think I’ll work on that for awhile.
Good luck to anyone who still has a late hunt on-going…..

in reply to: For those who shoot more than one bow…. #162430I have a few myself mostly Centaurs and Shrews…. in the 50 – 60lb range. Although I rarely shoot the heavier ones these days.
I haven’t drawn elk in awhile, and I am working thru some physical issues that preclude the ” high up hills”. Maybe next year.
I still have my 1st bow a Shakespeare Ocala ( 50lb)….

Sounds like a beautiful bow. I shoot mostly 50 -55 lb bows these days also…
My shrew Samurai is the bow I shoot wood arrows in most of the time. I’ll order some Spruce after the holidays.
