Casting the First Stone

Decided to take the plunge and try to get my first primitive kill. Locally harvested hickory self-bow, river cane arrow, and stone point I made of Georgetown flint. I've shot in quite a few tournaments, won three I.B.O. World Championships, an I.B.O.
Triple Crown National Championship, an ASA Classic, several ASA Pro/Am's, a handful of State Championships, and killed a lot of critters, but I have never felt the amount of pressure I did on this one shot. I'm hooked!

gotta love it. I made about 10 bows in the last year. six osage, the rest red oak and several with bamboo backing from behind the house. been making cane arrows, just not able to knap yet. Also fire hardened one hickory bow, only way to go. pretty awesome video my friend. and you just took it to the next level. Jerry
