Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

I've always liked tattoos and viewit like taxidermy as a trueexpression of artwork...for several years I've wanted to get a couple done.One of a buck that I killed thatmeanta lot to me, I have the drawingready to go for thetattoo artistand another of a band of my personal favorite shed antlers ive picked up over the years ...I'd put thataround my bicep. I'd also like to do one that incorperates my family, my boys and wife's initials or something..

Anyone one else here already have some Bowhunting related ink? Or plan too? just curious. share pix if you have them..

I've been throwing around the idea of having a rutting bull elk done on my left shoulder blade. About 5 or 6" square.

I have an arrow w/broadhead on the back of my right arm. It starts at the top of my arm and looks like it's popping out of my skin, then comes down to just above my elbow. I plan on getting the other arm done to match, only with a wooden arrow w/tied-on knapped head. I just need to draw something up and get to the tattoo shop one of these days.

I also have a small deer head/skull on my back between my shoulders. I'd like to get something done around that eventually, but who knows when that will happen.

I have a knapped stone head with a buck head silhouette in the middle on my upper arm and chinese characters that meanarcher on the palm side of my foremarm ,along with a few other non-hunting tats.

APAJaws (Dan) has quite a few but one in particular that I think is pretty cool.

That is the single coolest wildlife tatoo I've ever seen. I'm planning on getting one similar on the back of my calf. I've got 3 tattoos, one of which is a half sleeve on my left arm, a tribal band on my right bicep, and a cross on my back. I'd like to get something similar to that on my calf though, that is incredible artwork.

I have been toying with the idea of having a mountain lion tatooed on my shoulder blade(favorite animal), to me it epitomizes what is wild and still untouched by man. I want to have it done so it looks like it is clawing its way out of my back.

I've got a deer skull on my bicep

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

Wow... I would have never thought about turning that painting into a tat... really cool.

I heard about one guy that got the "Bowman" logo used by Bowtech (the guy kneeling shooting the bow) as a tattoo... I think that would be OK, because even though it's a company-associated thing, it doesn't have the manufacturer's name in it. Sort of like the Browning buck.

I never ever wanted a tattoo or even remotely thought about one until recently. And at almost 53 years old maybe I am getting a little crazy. Having giving it much thought I wouldn't mind having two arrows crossing on my right shoulder, a small one of course:). If that turned out nicely then perhaps a tattoo of a 200" buck somewhere..........doubt I will ever shoot one, but I could wear one.:D

That tattoo shown my Rick James is awesome, but not my cup of tea.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

You're never to old for a tattoo LOL. I got my last two at 50 yrs old ;).

My buddy Ty was in Hawaii about a month ago and he had a deer head similar to the HB logo done on his shoulder with an arrow. It looks pretty cool. Ill try to post some pictures later

I have a wolf howling with the moon behind him on my back.

I am getting a tatto of crossed M-16s with USMC Lima Co. 3/25 and the initials of two friends of mine who were killed in Iraq. I served with them for 5 years and want people to see the tattoo and ask me what it means so they can be remembered.

I've thought of the BOWMAN as Greg said cuz it incorporates my Passion and would fit in nicely with my theme. I have Greg Normans Shark on my Right lower Calf. To symbolize my "other" Passion. Golf

I've got a ram skull tat on my right shoulder blade with my fraternity letters. I've thought about getting a deer skull done, but never got around to it.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

thats a cool tat

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

I have 3 outdoor tattoos, one is a deer skull, actually pretty much the same one as you can select for an avatar (the nontypical) one is a ruffed grouse, and the third is a brook trout. All three represent the game I most often pursued back home in the UP, i'm working on 4th currently, which will be turkeys in some form.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

Here's mine. I plan to add an old indian arrowhead outlining/behind it.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

hey robohunter im getting the same type thing soon, i saw it on the back of a Primos tee shirt. It looks good in the middle of your back.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

I started with just the buck in this tattoo then added the background scene, then designed and added the band of intertwined antlers below it.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?

You guys have to see the pics of APAJaws new tat, I will post pics after this weekend.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

Not necessarily a bow hunting tat but here it is. This is the Ojibwa Tree of Life. I got it because I live near some Native Americans that have a true love for the land and I have a deep respect for thier heritage.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

Some cool Tats guys..

APA ...I have that one tat pic of yours..hangin on my wall! sweet tat..of the praying bowhunter

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

heres one of mine

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

Here is mine on my back, it represents me and my kids. I also have a wolf on both arms and a lion on my calf.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

I have my avatar on one arm and the state of Texas with a tornado behind it on the other arm. I told my wife and kids that I would get their names tatooed on me, but I wanted something I would always be proud of!

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

Got a new one tonight. I'll post a pic in a day or so once the "newness" goes away. I got the indian arrowhead behind the skull that i had.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

Justin - Do you have any pics of your tat? Sounds cool and similiar to another tattoo I've seen.

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

I'm thinking about getting a button buck tattoo'd above my navel. In about 5 years it should be Boone & Crockett the way I'm going! [:-]

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

Thats funny!

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

Well, the way I'm going it would have double drops in 2 years.[&o]

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

I really like the intertwined antlers instead of the barb wire, i was considering the same tatoo, cool pics fellas!

RE: Bowhunting Ink, anyone?
 

Hahahahaa



Rybo..get that pic up!
