Looking great Darrel! Couple of quick questions.... Can you give me an idea of how many board feet you ended up using? How many strips total? And it looks like your just using flat strips and not bead and coving them? I'm thinking real hard about building something like this. Thanks in advance Brad

I've used about the same as everybody else. 2 sheets of cheap plywood cut in half for a 2X16 table I used cinder blocks to hold it all up and level

Good job! Great feeling ain't it?

Was 60 here too Chuck. Got up into the 80's this afternoon but compared to what we've been having it is incredible!

Hi Folks, I know this may be a long shot but I also know that there are a few traditional bow shooters on here that just might be interested in this clinic. If you hunt around the interweb for Rod Jenkins archery clinic you will find nothing but high praise for his teaching. But at any rate. It...

Hi Johno, Yeah I was pretty happy with it for my first shot. I can see me doing this a bunch. I used hickory as that was what home depot had in chunks. Everything else was just little wood chips. I'll have to give pecan a try.

Decided I needed to learn the art of low and slow cooking and seems the cheapest way for me to do that was to build an Ugly Drum Smoker. I did my first smoke on this thing today and I'm pretty impressed. Did up one sausage roll stuffed with mushrooms,onions and cheese and a boston butt. Sausage...

Very nice David! Someday I'll venture into the bow making side of the game....... As far as the fast flight versus the dacron. I'm shooting fast flight now as I'm finding it much quieter on my Border Black Douglas. I've found the same on several other bows as well. I don't have a clue if its...

Thanks guys, David, These are just the regular white tailed deer. Florida isn't known for its big deer. An average mature buck will weigh 110-120 pounds. I didn't weigh either of these deer but I'd guess them at 80 or 90 pounds. The first was a yearling, Last years fawn. and the second was a...

Thanks guys. Its been a fun couple of weeks even with it being as hot as it is. Chuck. The state folks changed the season dates depending on location to better coincide with the rut. And its working. The bucks are running around chasing does like crazy right now. Just the South region( South...

Archery season started down here this past saturday. July 31st! HOT!!!!!!!! But I've been making the best of it. Sweating like a pig but at the same time, getting the freezer filled. Both with a stick and string. 12 yard shot. Double lung and top half of the heart. Deer hopped 3 times at the...

Yeah, I'm a member on POA as well. But never posted. Theres some good info there but they are just a tad rough around the edges for my taste. To each his own.......

Nice work! Do you spend any time at tradgang.com ? Its a trad archery site and theres quite a few folks from Australia. Good bunch of folks

Damn Chuck. Hate to hear that.... So sorry. Its not easy. I've been there. Will be thinking of you.. Brad

Very nice work Keith! Not being nearly as talented as yourself I had Lisa Hedely build me a pocket holster for my keltec 380. http://www.hedleyholsters.com/index.html Right front pocket if I got pants or shorts on. I carry a spare mag in the velcro loop on my cell phone case which is...
