Me?  What about THEM ?   😂 

I used to shoot bare shafts through paper to set my rest.....But that was with perfectly straight shafts and aligned nocks.     Try that crap with a cedar limb.....and you're just asking for it.  😳

  Ok modern convince man,

   I have used river cane, shoots out of hazelnut. Gray dogwood and red osier to kill deer with stone points. As well as port orford cedar. All from an Osage self bow. Of course at 125 to 135 fps. Blazing fast 🤪.

     I wish I still could. Blake the Tanycomo Deck hand and guide just may get it done. I have passed the torch to him.

Oh I know.   I have an acquaintance that can't take 3 steps without finding something that was formed by ancient man.    

Don't try to argue with him either, cause you'll lose.   He knows rocks and can immediately prove to you that there's no way THAT rock got HERE on its own, and definitely not in the SHAPE that it is.

His nickname is Heavy Pockets.

Yo, I need zero convincing of the craftiness that you're capable of in your shop. 👍 

But the craftiness of an incestuous line of crosseyed native Americans, working with sinew and sharp rocks across his calloused knees....... I mean GTFOH !  😂
