Mark,
That bench looks familiar.
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Yeah, it should be Walt.  I never take enough pics of the stuff I build.  But I got one of YOUR bench!

Mike, what did you come up with for final tuning on your Sheepeater? Brace and nock point? I told you that thing liked carbons! How is it for shootability, handshock, string noise, draw qualities, speed, and such?

Brent
Brace set at 7-1/4"...Nock at 1/8" above center worked better fletched, bares liked 1/16".

Noise...bow is very quiet with just catwhiskers.  Shootability is excellent, love the grip and it's a natural pointer for me.

Speed...Very fast!  And they go deep into my target.

Draws very smooth.  Handshock is minimual.  There is a little but not enough to bother me, plus I'm comparing it to my DAS which is totally unfair.

Overall I love it!

Thanks Terry...I'll get that taken care of.

Mike, no problems man, we'll get you to shootin' the bows somehow.

By the way, everyone, Mike is doing some of the custom grinding for us, and doing an awesome job of it.  Those yew and osage lams are just beautiful!   Thanks Mike.

Mark - I have to ask: Who made that awesome moose horn guitar?  ... do you use it for your shows ?

That is by far the coolest electric guitar I have *ever* seen !   :thumbsup:

Tim,
Mark made the guitar.  I don't know if he is using it in his shows, yet.

Walt and Mark, Chase got his first guitar for his birthday and is taking lessons.  He has a picture of Mark's Moose guitar on his wall with a bunch of other "huntin'" stuff...way cool!

Yeah, I made it.  I always wanted one...one of those "ideas" I seem to always have.  It plays great, problem is I now have to build a custom case to transport it in.   Someday soon!  I am leaving for Kansas Bowhunters early tommorrow and toyed with the idea of using it, but then again,....maybe next time.  

Anybody that tries to contact us or order a bow in next 5 days, Brent and I are heading south to Kansas to show off the bows and do some pickin for those bowhunters down there...and maybe lay some groundwork for a KS whitey!   We'll catch up with you when we get back.  

Thanks all, talk to you next week.

Well it took me a while but I checked in and saw your site up and running.  Better late than never.  It's looking real good.

Mark, Brent...I cant wait to hunt my Sheepeater Spirit this spring.  It was a tough decision between it and the "Hellbitch" (love that name)  but since I have always wanted a short static recurve it had to come first. What a unique little powerhouse you have there. Hopefully I can contribute some pics to the photo album this spring.  :bigsmyl:  

Bringing back some of the now "extinct" classic old bows sounds like a great idea.  I'll be interested to hear which ones you decide to bring back to life.  Thats one of those tough decisions you dont mind making.  

Good luck and congrats on getting the site up.  I'll be in touch soon.  Randy.
