Entrance to the airgun/reloading/archery man-cave

We don't rent pigs sign. I also love watching Lonesome Dove. Best western ever.

Did you make the bow on the left of the photo? It looks like hedge.

AHH, the bullet hole. I've got one in my man cave too. lol

except I made mine with a pellet.

Nice... I've got one in my ceiling... Back when the Filarms Fiasco happened, I got one shipped to me for review. One of the first (and FEW) to get to customers. It made a detour to me to look it over and it had a pellet in it when I filled it and the pellet shot up in the ceiling, obviously not full power. 

After seating the valve stem with another burst of air (and assessing damage to my ceiling) I filled it up and took one shot.... and it dumped all air on the first shot. I informed the owner and sent it along. Shame as it was a pretty gun. I had a deposit on one back in the day. Like many others, I lost that deposit and Filarms gained a bunch of new equipment for their shop on our dime. 

You don't really wanna know what's on the other side of those doors-

You just think you do!

Unless you are into some Kinky stuff there, Sir..... yes...yes, I do want to know! 

AirNgasman,

I tried to convince my son to name his new baby Nuet from Lonesome Dove. ha ha...…..healthy boy named Lucas.

"Lonesome Dove. Best western ever." AGREED!

"Did you make the bow on the left of the photo?" Yes, but it's Osage (Bois d'Arc). The arrow (fletchings just visible on the far left) is an exact duplicate of those in Lonesome Dove; gifted me by the Bowyer that made the bows and arrows used in Lonesome Dove (Ron Hardcastle). Sinew-wrapped turkey fletching, ash (wood) shaft, self-nock, head made from old whiskey-barrel bands (as Native Americans found an excellent broadhead resource).

"AHH, the bullet hole. I've got one in my man cave too. lol except I made mine with a pellet." FWIW, a pellet hole in the Man Cave is better than a pellet welp in the belly or a bullet hole in the dashboard. Don't ask how I know these things.

How about that. I have an autographed copy of Jim Hamm's Bowyer's Bible and Ron's got an article on page 131 of volume one about the Osage flat bow. Read it many times before I built my first board bow. Since then I have made one or two bows myself, nothing like his work of course but they shoot. Love that Osage but Locust and Mulberry are a little easier to find around here and I like Locust almost as much. Virginia Red Cedar will do in a pinch if you want a substitute for yew. I do have an Osage out in the yard that I am looking at pretty hard this year. That tree will probably be the last one I cut for bows. I have in mind bows for my three kids from the same tree.

I've seen inside...it's impressive! Lol.

I don't remember the bullet hole? New addition since my last visit? You are redecorating! Take care buddy.
