Mighty pretty lineup there, Buck. What/who do you mean by "we" - have I missed something or is it my memory taking a snooze again?

How did you get your bamboo down to thickness?

Tilbilly · April 11, 2007, 05:28:00 PM

Beautiful bows!

Buck Buckley · April 11, 2007, 06:04:00 PM

Me and my dad build the bows together. gives me an other reason to spend time with him, besides all the time we spend hunting and fishing, Hes going to Texas with me to hunt hogs and turkeys in two weeks. He is going to be 70 in july and I hope that when I'm his age that I can still do everything that he does. He is like that energiser bunny he just keeps on going and going.

Buck Buckley · April 11, 2007, 06:10:00 PM

Luke, after I get it roughed to the shape of the bow I take it to the belt sander and keep working it till I get the thickness I want. use a pair of calipers and get it down to 1/8 inch between the nodes.

Good on you and your Dad. Hard to beat that. I'll be 72 in Oct. but I never was an energizer bunny, even in my younger days - LOL. Did make my first (laminated wood) bow last month though. Y'all did great work there.

Kevin Breaux · April 11, 2007, 07:43:00 PM

Buck, if they shoot 1/4 as good as they look, wow!

Terry Green · April 11, 2007, 08:14:00 PM
