OK Doc. You have a lot of work still to do on garden so you’ll not be deleted, just depleted. Fair nuff’. 😀

I think Steve has his figures correct. A little fly on the wall told me he makes good bows. :D:D

I did the calculations for my new bow that I’m making. It looks like I’ll be able to shoot a 50 grain per pound arrow at about 3000 feet per second.

That’s too hot!!!

Steve that’d be a fire hazard in these parts dry as it is.

What a modern traditional bunch we are uh Doc? If we use the real traditional stuff they call us primitive.

What ya sayin? Wood arrows, B50 string? 😀 Ummmm!

One really handy thing about wood arrows, if you don’t loose them all:D, is that you always have kindling for a fire starter in a pinch.

Better have an ignition source though cause rubbing two arrows together may take a bit longer that you want.:wink:

Dang Doc, you coulda bought a half dozen carbon arrows with all that garden money + a can of peas. 😀

Yep Doc, that’s the only thing on our side when turkey hunting, they don’t smell us.:D

Hell, they don’t have to, the sharp eyed beggars.

I think they run faster nowadays too. 😉

[quote=paleoman]Ralph – that’s a Texas lilac! Beautiful. We got 2.1″ rain here today. Found a perfect stone ax today in a farm field. But no groove. So just a rock:lol: Did you guys get rain out of the system that’s worked over the middle of the country today?[/quote

Nope on the rain. Got some mud drops but that’s all. Maybe Sunday, Monday. Hope.

I found a tool the other day, some kind of rubbing, grinding tool. Grooved to fit a hand perfect. No points in a longtime though.

The first time in years our lilac bush’s flowers haven’t frozen. It may be dry here so far but it’s happy.
