Good thing for gravity Jim or y’all be falling off.

What’s winter like in your part of Australia?

Our newly sprung spring is quite breezy and making my backyard archery quite the challenge. The red dot is standing still but what’s trying to hit it ain’t.

Yup. My wife said quit with the wannabe homo sapiens thing and get real. Yes, I’ve struggled for years on coming out, but, it’s true, I am a Neanderthal man:lol:

Upscale cave with closets uh? Cool.

My thinkin is like above only I’m also thinkin that when you’re beginning you need to shoot arrows with enough feathers on them that through the eons have been proven to be stable, such as 5″ or perhaps larger. That way when you have bobbles you can be concentrating on form and bow tuning to correct them and not be worrying so much about the arrow.

After all that is perfected (best of luck on that:D) then is when one can start “playing”:D or trying to achieve the max. JMHO

No idea on the age of those scissors. I’ve been researching but mostly going around in circles. I just never thought of Case for anything but a great knife.

Apparently their scissors are of as good a quality as their knives from what I can find out.

in reply to: The Trad Knife Thread #59507

I inherited these. I was never aware that Case made scissors. They are very good, very sharp. Not a knife I know but “cut”lery for sure. 😀 Every one needs a good pair of scissors.

My spring fever plans got changed today. Gotta paint a bathroom. The person whose idea it was to do so is gone for the day so, what y’all think she’ll think when she gets home:? Just pondering some designs to incorporate. 😀

Think not perhaps, eh!

Nice.

I like a leather grip also. I have one longbow without so I went by Tandy’s today to look for scraps and the store was gone. Dang, I was just there a couple of weeks ago.

Guess I’ll go searching.

Mike, you seen my notes:?

I keep a little pocket tape measure handy. Then I don’t have to remember much except where I put it. 😀

Glad you’re better Steve. Not quite the spring fever one looks to. I had a bout of that stuff a couple of years ago myself. Kinda hard on a guy.

Enjoy the spring, your bow and life!:D

That’s the way it is here in the Panhandle with the wind. We just go shoot. Messes with us when it ain’t blowing:D
