Great pictures! I use a Black Widow MB 64" thats 82@31" and a Assenhiemer T/D 62" 83@31"(I've got 2 other Assie's). I've also used Fedora's Bighorn(G.Fred's) and various others. The Widow is by far the best I've ever shot and I've been using this one for 14 years now.(got 39 deer and 3 bears with trad equipment) Been kinda slacking the last couple of years, been saving my tags for the pistols. My good friend actually owns a Ishi made arrow he bought from Dr Parker(b4 his passing from cancer) and I've had it in my hands. Sorta like holding the holy grail!

Thanks for sharing piebald!Thats awsome!I have only heard good things about the black widow bows,I gotta try one some time.They must really be a sweet shooting bow,Did the ishi arrow have a flint head or steel?I found out today his bow drew 45# and was made of yew wood rawhidebacked and was 54in.long.COOL thumb.

The Ishi arrow has a flint head on it. I know Black Widow takes alot of slack from other bowyers(they call em' plywood bows) but they'll flat out shoot!
