Sign me up. I'll build a glass bow of some sort. I'd take anything but a selfbow right handed, 50 to 55 pounds at 31"s, 3 under. If poundage is off a little I'm good with that.

I am in!

I am building a fiberglass take-down (3 pc.) D/R Longbow this year. More than willing to do a locator or straight grip. Just as a forewarning... I haven't moved up to fancy veneers and clear glass yet so green, brown or black are the choices (I personally like black).

I would be overjoyed with either an all wood or fiberglass bow, one-piece, two-piece, three-piece or... is a four-piece a thing?
I have a 31" right-hand draw and shoot three-under. A bow in the 50# range would be great!

I don't know what it would cost to ship internationally, but a take-down shouldn't be too outrageous... would it? So, I am in to send mine to wherever.

I've been lurking for awhile, but I would like in!

I will be making a glass 1 piece bow. I would prefer a glass bow in return. RH, 3U, 40-50 lbs.

Count me in to make a full dozen.

I will be building a one piece glass bow.
Will be happy with any bow but curious about wood bows.

I will join the swap this year.  I draw 27", 50-55#, right-handed.  I'll build an osage selfbow, one piece.  Thanks!

I’m in this year. I’ll be building a one piece glass longbow.
In return I’ll be happy with whatever.
I’m right handed and I like a bow between 45-55# @28”

Looks like 14 now.  Not sure what CB has as a minimum though.

CB didn’t really have a hard minimum number, but I was thinking at least a dozen (we have that now) and ideally we could get two dozen or more to make it interesting. I think we had 18 last year, would be great to at least beat that. So keep the signups coming!

Sorry guys, I won’t be able to take part in the swap this year. I just have too much on the go right now. I hate to miss out, but I’ll be watching and waiting to see progress pics.
This is what’s got me tied up right now, and I have a couple more to do by the end of April.

Just a reminder, tonight is the deadline to sign up.

With participation continuing to trend down, there's no guarantee there will be one next year. So if you're on the fence, you may want to jump in.

Sign-Ups are now closed.

I will draw names and get out your assignments in the next couple of days. Tonight will be a bit tight, but I'll try. (Luckily there aren't that many...)
