Hello guys, About two years ago I went to this deer farm here in MICH I forgot the name of the farm but when I walked in the barn they had all this Fred Bear Bows and arrows.. So I would like to see your archery history man room.....

Take Care..

Cody

Awesome barn

D,
What are the claws(?)from
     Kurt

Those are turkey "claws" Kurt.  We refer to them as spurs out here in the Midwest    

Trap

That pair of sheds hanging with the wingbone call are some heavy hitters.

Trap.. I thought those were spurs. That represents a lot of turkeys on the ground. Congrats..that is a neat way to display them..bhfp

Cody-I've been to that place too.It was pretty coolto see and totally unexpected.

Trap-I really like the way you have your "man-cave" decorated.Alot of really interesting stuff.I also like native American items and you sure have some cool stuff.I liked the spur necklace too.Nice job.

Trap, the rack of Kodiaks, 8th and 9th from the bottom, what year? (I'm showin my ignorance)

Also, is that "my" 61 K-mag front on the right?

What an outstanding collection you have Sir!

Hello John, Man I wish I knew the name of the farm it's down by Jackson I think.....

Cody

Thanks fellas, I didnt realize I'd be the only person posting pics.  There's much bigger collections of bows and animal parts than mine for sure. Hope we get to see some others.    

Kenny the 8th bow up is a 59 Kodiak and the 9th is a Holcomb 59 Repro and yes that's your 61 KMag hanging vertical in the front.  I actually considered selling it recently and was going to contact you but Bjorn talked me out of it.  

I'll soon have the missing piece of my 1954-1962 Kodiaks puzzle. Not sure where I'll go from there. 51-53 maybe?  63-66?  Kodiak Specials? 64" Kodiaks?  Fun isnt it?

Don those sheds came from a recently burned field in NE Kansas.  They were laying about 15 yards off of the road about 10 feet apart.  I'd driven by them a half dozen times during a 3 day period when I finally saw them.

Cody,I don't remember the name either but it is near Jackson.We stopped there last year to check out the albino deer and the bucks we saw from the road.Cool place.We were heading down to Jerome to pick up some venison we had processed.

I have pics of that Albino deer some where on here.... Man they had a lot of old archery stuff....

Turkey Spurs
You've been eating some birds!!!
thats a great display.

Thanks Kurt, I'd eat them year around if it were legal.  Trap

Wow! Trap you have a very nice set up! The arrows above the window are a beautiful touch!!
That's inspiring-I hafta' get busy!

Trap, WOW, what a nice set-up! I agree with Bjorn, the quivers on the wall really adds a nice touch!

Finaly took a few quick photos of my bow room.Lotsa clutter!Don't know how clear they are but here goes.Kinda just did a complete circle.Top of my computer desk.
 
Gun cabinet next to computer desk holds more bows than guns.
