Correct me if Im wrong

PEARL DRUMS · March 11, 2011, 01:22:00 PM

I am going to put skins on my new short bottom limb osage self bow. This is what I was thinking needs to happen, please correct me if need be.

1. Leave the bow raw, but finish sanded and glue my skins on.
2. Trim up skins after drying period.
3. Rub my Tru Oil on the entire bow in one shot.

Thanks

Sounds good to me, but I saw some really nice camo duct tape at walmart yesterday. Ha! Have a good weekend bro. I get to take the weekend off for some serious playtime!

Thats a great plan Savage! Then I could just peel it off for 3-d season and put it back on for huntin' season! Plus I could get like 500 feet for $6! Thats way cheaper than skins! Have good weekend yourself Sir!

Plus the duct tape will prolly help hold the bow together too:)

Somethings gotta right Roy?

You ol' codger! I swear! If it falls apart its YOUR fault! Your the one who told me to make the bottom limb shorter!.........its your butt if she lets rip.

One more thing MIKE! You may want to pick up a roll for that 59" steaming pile of osage I gave you!

Roy from Pa · March 11, 2011, 02:34:00 PM

Oh geeze.. Then put a couple layers of duct tape on her..

hardwaymike · March 11, 2011, 02:34:00 PM

From what I've seen so far a mentor is for pushin the blame off on right? LOL

Roy from Pa · March 11, 2011, 02:36:00 PM

They always say, if it doesn't shoot then duct tape it:)

PEARL DRUMS · March 11, 2011, 02:42:00 PM

Its under rated as a backer. We always hear about linen, brown bag, sinew and such. But what about duct tape? Its waterproof, super sticky and will protect from splinters after the explosion.

Funny y'all should mention camo duct tape.......I was in Walfart yesterday and they had grey digital camo duct tape. First time I've ever seen that variety, it was kinda cool actually. I thought about picking up a roll just cause it was pretty. Don't know what I'd use it for though, maybe arrow wraps?

Pearl- Maybe you could get some to put over Roy's mouth so you can hear him or see him?

PEARL DRUMS · March 11, 2011, 03:06:00 PM

Thanks Chris! I seen your post and ASS-U-MED your were piling on! Take that roy BOY!

John Scifres · March 11, 2011, 03:11:00 PM

I will come get that bow if you put duct tape on it. Seriously!

PEARL DRUMS · March 11, 2011, 03:15:00 PM

You have my address, I have to believe you John! I need to be careful with my sarcasm, somebody might actually try it on their bow!

Roy from Pa · March 11, 2011, 03:16:00 PM

Well the boy is pretty easy Semo:)

Hey John, how bout I bring my pickup truck out there and we load it up with Osage?

Roy from Pa · March 11, 2011, 03:23:00 PM

They do in fact sell camo tape for bows.. You could be onto something Pearly Boy..

PEARL DRUMS · March 11, 2011, 03:25:00 PM

I have seen it. I may consider putting tape on one of my bows after Im dead, but until then it aint happnin'!

Roy from Pa · March 11, 2011, 03:37:00 PM

I use the camo face paint to camo my bows when hunting. It doesn't hurt the finish and wipes right off after the season is over.

PEARL DRUMS · March 11, 2011, 03:48:00 PM

I just dont let 'em get that close before I sling a chunk of wood at them!
