Hey Steve, thanks for posting my "Trophy" LOL I couldn't tell ya what it scored but it had points and stickers all over it and was about 25 feet tall. I'm sorry to say that its not the biggest "Trophy" I've ever shot though.

Thanks for bringing the thrower that was a blast. I had a great time and thanks to everyone for making it so much fun!!

Joe rest up and don't try to shoot any bows till the Doc gives ya the thumbs up. You'll be back in shooting shape in no time.

Later all
Deerhntr....Mitch

Hey guys what do you think of the touch I added to the Boo bow I traded for?

I reworked the grip to fit me a little better then wrapped the upper fadeout out with sinue for strength then thought I would ad the touch I was talking about. It's now the Semo Hog Hunt bow.

I've forgotten the fellas handle or name I got this from so if anyone knows please let me know.

Pete was his name and I think he was from Illinois but not sure on that one. Bill

Voodoofire1 · March 08, 2007, 08:42:00 PM

Man, that grip looks smooth, great work Mitch!

NightHawk · March 08, 2007, 09:56:00 PM

nice work Mitch that is one sweet looking bow can you put skineeze on bamboo? How does she shoot? I tried shooting a 35 pound bow today I used a piece of nylon on the bow string and drew it using my teeth.

Thanks Bill, Pete rings a bell. I think he was from the Peorea area. Thanks Steve, Joe the handle work wasn't all that much just a little sanding to fit me better. I was mainly showing the Semo hog hunt written on it.

Joe, I've already camo'd the back of the bow. I tried to stain it after I reworked the handle but couldn't get the stain to take so I painted it camo. What works on Boo for staining? The bow shoots pretty good although it starts to stack at about 26". No big deal though. Seems to like about any arrow I shoot also. Later.

Deerhnter...Do you have a pic of the bow painted camo Ive thought of doing that if my skineez ever wear out..Kinda wondered what it looked like?

Deerhntr · March 09, 2007, 12:09:00 AM

I have a pic of it but it came out blurry. I'll take another one and post it tomorrow. The camo looks pretty good. It turned out better than I had hoped.

tmccall · March 09, 2007, 12:22:00 AM

Nice looking bow deerhunter.... I don't remember seeing it at the hunt, but I look forward to seeing it next year!

Deerhntr · March 09, 2007, 12:56:00 AM

Here's a pic of the camo Seth. Krylon flat green, olive, and tan. Basecoat green then touch it up here and there with an Oak leaf for a pattern. After that 3 coats of satin Minwax spar urathane. I don't know how it will hold up but it looks good. Shot it today with no ill effects.

Tony, If we do the hunt next year I'll have people sign it.

Budog56 · March 09, 2007, 11:28:00 AM

That looks awesome thanks for posting the pic
