Thanks for all the words of encouragement, guys. We'll definitely be making more of these. @John: I just keep getting bigger and uglier. I can almost see why...
Greetings Bob, I find your posting to be quite a good summation. Very clear, concise and to the point. I only have one question... you wrote: "It should be...
Good Day Bruce And I thought nobody read my postings. Far from being a nobody, I believe you and your boomerangs are second to none. My boomerang flight...
... I love throwing the Viper this way in low/no wind! ... I suspect that Bob's many years as a performer make this option more appealing -- especially if it...
Announcement to all interested parties. I spoke to Moleman and confirmed the date and location. It will be Sat. July 25th at The Hotchkiss school in Lakeville...
Greetings Bob, Thanks for answer... and your very kinds words about my sticks. I'm quite that your posts are eagerly read by all of the BT members. I know I...
Hi Bruce, Bob n All, Â I would like to think, that all of us throwers of wood....and other materials, act similar to the characteristics of wood. In which, if...
Hi Bob, Yes we read your posts and always learn something from them. but as perceptions go, here in CT I find that people don't believe they really return....
Good Day all. Expanding on David Richardson’s comment. Hope you guys haven’t heard this before, as a very close relative sometimes bags me for repeating ...
I just posted a photo of my latest "Guitar Boomerang" paint job....I have a friend from the U.K., who enjoys playing her Fender Stratocaster, along with...
Bob; Just amazed at what can be done with a boomerang! I'm a relatively late comer to the boomerang world and would loved to have been involved when you and...
very cool boom Bill. I'd love to see it in the air. Keep em flying. Art ... From: Bill Glover To: Boomerang_Talk@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, July 03, 2009...
Nice post Bob. Very interesting. The bounce & return throw you mentioned is pretty cool. I've actually done that once myself, but it wasn't on purpose! ;) Can...
Yet another great post, Bob. Don't think nobody's reading them! For me it's comforting to know that even a boomerang legend such as yourself occasionally has a...
Good Day Glen Vulcanised fibre I believe is made from a composite of Whalebone and Rubber. It is structured from thin sheet form, then heat compressed from ...
Hey Bob, Glenn isn't the only one to accidentally bounce a boom off the ground and have it return Surprised the heck out of me the first time I did it. Never...
Good Day Art. In 1982 my most memorable miss throw, resulted with a, "ground run" then a "small Stairway climb" ending with a hallway run inside a historic...
Good Day BOB, Am I glad to hear that even the masters have bad days too, and I thought it was only me. LOL There are days when nothing works right. trying to...
Hello Bob! I have to agree with Art & everyone else who read your great post on boomerang events. Cool with the bounce throws. I bet that requires lots of...
a Few months ago I saw a picture of a boom called the "PHAROE"(?sp). I enlarged the picture and tried to size it for 4 mm wood. It came out with narrow wings...
Sounds Cool John, you need to enclose a pic, it might help with id purposes :D When you say A Bear to catch, how does return ? High/Fast/ ? Chris ... From:...
Hi Bob, Yes, we are the luckiest people on the earth. I am so busy doing Boomerang Presentations that tommorrow is the first day off in 3 weeks. I remember...
Hi John, I sure hope Bruce chimes in here as he has experience with this type of boomerang. My guess is that you made the Pharoah, or Egyptian by Herb Smith. I...
Thanks Dave; It's the pharoe, not the Mogul.? Makes sense, I was making another Herb Smith, so probably came across the pharoe during the research.? I have...
Hi John, I think Dave summed it up quite well. I'm presuming it's a "bear" to catch because the of the shape itself... much like a heavy traditional, those...
Thanks Bruce. Flew Pharoe this AM in 6-8 mph breeze and it did just fine.? It has nice finish just hard to hold onto-will?try dihedral and see?what happens.?...
John, I'd try the G-10 before adding weights to the wood... that'll probably make it even harder to catch! As I mentioned, try a bit of tuning... that'll give...
Folks, I got behind on reading posts and was catching up this weekend. I remembered seeing Vic's over the hill boomerang and wanted to revisit it. When I...
Hi Vinny, Â It doesn't sound like your doing anything wrong. I'd try.....visiting the B-Talk group, and click on posts or messages, and scroll back from there....
