old wood
So,you got some old wood you say,,,
Winter is comin up fast here up North, and it gets pretty cold,,,
good firewood is always welcome! :wink:
No, seriously stick2it
you got yourself a little treasure there!!!
Those cedar sticks are history itself,,
felled and gathered by lovers of archery past,,
I'm sure those billets are as fine today as they were way back when,,,
Any archer should be proud to craft arrows using that material,,,
Don't be too hasty in getting rid of it,, I'd say
make sure it goes to a good home
do your pa proud
I myself came across some 50year old shafts awhile back,
an older lady seen a pic of my wife shooting her recurve
and phoned us to ask if we would be interested in her husbands archery stuff(he passed away a few years prior)
Well,, he had stuff!!
arrows and bare shafts and recurves and longbows,
quivers and armgaurds gloves and tabs
everything,,, I was in awe!!!
she asked what it was worth??
I said its almost priceless,,,
she said thats what she wanted to hear!!!
got it all for almost nothing,,,
the arrows fly perfect out of his old bows
he still lives in me
I hope I can say the same some day,,,
So, find a good home for them old cedar billets
thats what traditional archery is all about :cocktail:
