1. Looking for exercises to keep/get the bow muscles strong and flexible. Have been losing weight to be healthier and looking for home dumbbell workout to tone up. Appreciate any suggestions 2. My wife has had 3 failed shoulder surgeries. She is getting by with physical therapy once a week to keep her shoulder mobile. She expressed interest in shooting a recurve. Looking for training for her shoulder issue that may help with range of motion if that is even possible? Also, recurve recommendation for her. She is 5’ 1”. Thank you

Hello everybody!!! It’s a pleasure join this group!

Well, I am not going to be able to finish these arrows for our fundraiser. After I stripped the finish I thought I had just barely enough time to start over and get them done. But last night my cresting machine betrayed me. I had noticed the connection to the motor seemed poor, but when I tried to turn it on last night to finish cresting it had no connection at all. They used really poor quality wiring and the wires broke at the motor. I have always kept that thing in the box and it's only made 4 sets of arrows. Im not impressed. Bohning is sending me a new motor though so at least their service seems good. But I won't finish these in time.

Show off your arrow artwork! Let’s go!! That includes timbers @Gary Harris 😉 @Colton Deline

Growing up as a young archer/bowhunter these were my inspiration every day I walked into my Fathers shop- both knapped by himself and examples of late to middle woodland points from Ontario. 🏹 His shop was and is still filled with bows and arrows ranging from early to late Howard Hill/Shultz American Longbows/English war bows, browning recurves, Wilson bros Black Widow recurves/and many others..the smell of Port Orford cedar was always in the air as well as his current project on the bench- a new Flemish twist string on his jig or an arrow building project. It was the place to be for me as a kid and inspired my imagination of stalking whitetails on overcast cold October days... these points were my inspiration and still are serving as the foundation for The Ethical Predator movement and the connection to past Hunter Gatherers in all of us- and the challenge that process brings! What was or is your inspiration to find traditional archery!? Cheers! -Grant
