Thank you!

Thanks! I do have a video on straightening bamboo shafts, it's a bit long but very detailed information on the process

Thanks!

I will definitely make a future video discussing that!

I'm not sure if it has an actual name or not... I personally haven't seen people making or using this style but I'm sure there are some out there. Back weaved loops string? Best I can think of at the moment lol

I'll be posting a new video every week now (usually on the weekend) - I have a list of ones to make from more how to archery stuff, hide tanning, hunts, trapping, processing game ect... If you have any ideas of content you'd be interested let me know as well!

They make a great hunting companion!

More than once we have come across other hunters with their bird dogs who say they didn't find much along the trail, only to have Ishi flush multiple they walk past. One guy and his dog last year stopped to talk and Ishi ran 100ft up the trail past them while we were talking and put up a bird they just walked by . The guy didn't know what to think!

Ipe arrow shafts

@@mainelyprimitive thanks for the reply. That makes more sense. I couldn't make out what you were saying and CC was coming up as "Epay". Where are you located in Maine? I'm a Mainer myself.

Im near Acadia

Thanks, he has turned into a great hunting dog! 3 years old now and does rabbits, woodcock and partridge. Also quite the tracking machine!

@@mainelyprimitive we can tell 🙂👍

Hey thank you and that's great to hear! My site/etsy is deactivated at the moment because ive been working a bunch trying to save for land and working on my own gear for hunting season. I'm going to try to find time to edit/upload some videos. I want to focus more on my channel (which I really should make time for because I enjoy creating content) and hopefully get some decent equipment to film more during hunting/trapping season! But thanks again for your support and hope your having a good time with your shepherd in the woods!

It's been years since I made a recurve but If I remember right I did 4 hours at 180

I always used smooth on ea40

I've never made a crossbow but I do think a shorter fiberglass limb would work well for a crossbow.

Thanks!

Be a great game for it! And these are snowshoe hares. Only ones we have here but there's quite a few of them.

@@mainelyprimitive oh okay thanks. Yeah, my pup gets excited when he finds the toy rabbit and awaits a reward when he shows me where it is.

Because it's food and dogs especially shepherds are instinctive hunters that love to hunt. There is no greater bond than hunting food and sharing it with your dog.

@@mainelyprimitive There are no animals that exist just to be hunt or just to be food. Making your dog kill another living being is stupid, if ypu enjoy killing animals then you are trash and dont deserve anything in this world.

I use Tonkin bamboo but people make arrow out of many types of bamboo/cane. I don't know what type of bamboo reed you have but give it a try! Might work well.

@@mainelyprimitive Oh I understand brother thank you very much for the information greetings from Honduras

Pseudosasa japonica and Pseudosasa Amabilish (Tokin) are best choice, otherwise river cane is also a option, reed Bamboo may not work

@@TheBabuna007 A brother, I don't think there are those kinds of bamboo in this country and if there is, I wouldn't know it because maybe here they call it by another name, although I don't think there is, if rather before I could get cane bamboo because in this place it is poor in bambus but I thank you for the good information brother

@@andycorea1133 tell me which country?

An old beat up single shot .22

@@mainelyprimitive thanks for the response, I love your videos

Oily woods just need a good wipe with paint thinner or alcohol and the oils come out. Glued up many teak and Ipe bows that's are still shooting great years later.

Dog eats rabbits, I eat rabbits...they populate like crazy because Mother Nature intended them to die as a food source for predators. Humans are predators. Plus they are delicious!

@@mainelyprimitive but they are not meant for that video. He could have. Bought a rabbit from market

@@officialarnabchakraborty5865 why waste money when you can get it your self 😅😅😅🤣

@@officialarnabchakraborty5865 Market rabbit are killed by a more cruel way.

Ummm.....rabbits are food....We kinda live by if we can catch it, kill it or drag it to the wood stove, it gets eaten.

Lol rabbits are fopd

Yeah, pure as you can get. Ishi has a great pedigree with excellent bloodlines. Both his parents were imported West German Showline shepherds.

It ia very rewarding to watch them learn and master the hunt! My previous shepherd was one of the best hunting dogs you could ask for, Ishi is well on his way!!!!

I was very excited!! And when he was younger we always threw "puppy parties" when he did something good. Our dog season starts Sept 26 and Ishi is just over a year old now so he will be back at it with plenty more footage! The make great hunting dogs.

He is well on his way! He will be starting with woodcock/ducks this year as well! Rabbits and grouse he is spot on with.

@@mainelyprimitive nice

I don't make fiberglass bows anymore but I was using smooth on ea40

Thanks for checking it out! And shepherds make great hunters! The natural herding instinct and high intelligence is a deadly combo in the woods. Ishi is my second, Gunner was my first and you could fill a truck bed with all the game that dog hunted during his days.

They are very smart, agile, strong, and have a good bite

both are brilliant choices, I've had 2 labs before and am working on my 9 week red lab. and I have to say Labradors are exactly what you want for water retrieving but either are a great option for hunting in general.

@@mainelyprimitive I use my GSD for flushing grouse into the trees. He always chases them into the trees where i cant shoot them out.

I do still make them I just shut down orders for a while because the raw tonkin I use kept being out of stock or unavailable. I'm planning on making a big buy of 10K-15K pieces when it's available again, that way I have plenty to work with and no out of stock issues like I do currently...

Lmaoooo bout to say 😂. How hard was it to train ur dog to track squirrels? I’m getting one soon and want to use it as my squirrel dog to like tree and track squirrels

Just about!! He was 6lbs at the time and the rabbits are 4 lbs. Ishi is much bigger now at 7 months old.

I have not had to much of a problem with Ishi running. One of the things I do in the woods is let him get ahead, then step off and hide. He panics and finds me. Teaches them to stop and check for you and not get too far ahead. Many pups run because their owners chase them too, it becomes a game to them and trains them to run away.
