    A great Sunday Strole

    I worked all weekend and promised to take my son out for the afternoon. Jake and I left the house about 3:00. We were allowed to cross a friend of a friends property to public land. I had a over the counter tag 20 minutes from my house with open site 30-06. 150 yard shot dropped in its tracks and was home by 7:30. The property owner helped us get the deer back to the truck, we figured it to be around 230 lbs., 26.5” wide 24” tall, not bad for a quick afternoon. Wow

    CO Vacation

    Great photos, and I wonder why it took me so long to move up here. Yes I miss the desert and the little deer, but the walleye are starting to hit, and every weekend is your vacation.

The limbs ar cross banded maple with japanese bamboo face and back. Please feel free to shoot me a pm and I will send pictures of the project. Best regards Geoff

    New Rigs??? Archery season is coming!

    Just got done glueing the bamboo on to the face and back of the new longbow I'm building, when I get her completed I will send some photos. She should be very fast (for old school). This will be my new shooter this year for all the OTC tags I can pick up

    Broadheads for elk?

    Go old school. I have shot Snuffers for over 30 years. They don't break, they fly great, you can sharpen the back side (this is for us traditionalists), and you can sharpen them easly. I have shot them through compounds (when I was a tecno geek) I shoot them through my recurve and long bow. They fly great. I have got lots of meat elk, deer, lopes, and stink rats (javies) over the years. last years elk traveled about 65 yrds. Any fixed blade will work as long as you practice and keep them sharp. Congradulations on the taggood luck on the elk hunt. I think I'll buy an OTC again this year. Good luck all Geoff

    What to do in Denver?

    I am base out of Longmont, for a cool day trip other than the standard Estes Park drive try going into Fort Collins and up the Pouder Canyon up to Steamboat. You have the chance to see deer, elk, bighorns, and moose. You could spend $14.00 on a day fishing license and you would be driving past some of the premier blue ribbon waters in the world. You dont have to be a purist flyfisherman take a lightweight spinning outfit and Z-rays, or Panther Martins I have to fly out on Sunday afternoon for a job or I would offer to take you. Give me a PM shout today and I'' get you my contact info If you want some other ideas. Geoff AKA Cowboy

    I could use some help

    I have tryed carbon, the recurve don't like them much. Granted that was a few years ago, maybe I'll try them again. If anyone has some of the fluteds laying around, or are staking up their tomato plants I'll take'em off your hands. They fly perfect, I hate changing whats been working for so long. Geoff

    longbow arrow weight

    Dont worry about the penitration of your field tips (you can't eat paper) What broadhead are you using? I know that this will open a can of worms, but any properly sharpend solid 2 blade will give you the penitration that you will need. I perfer 3 bladed snuffers. I have used them for over 30 years without a problem, or loss of an animal. What ever you decide to use, practice with them alot at every stance, angle, and distance you feel comfotable with. You should be good out to 35 + yards or more. But the key is practice ALOT. Don't listen to the mechanical speed freaks. Sticks and strings have been around alot longer, and has feed more people than any of there cable contraptions that weigh more than a boat anchor by the end of the day. Enjoy yourself, and practice.

    Albuquerque is $ 3.39 now and they are saying $ 4.00 by the end of summer. The way the prices are going as of now we will probably hit that in 3 weeks.
