Here I am down to a single ring and the centerline marked out. I think this piece of wood needs a bowyer instead of me. All suggestions welcome. Length is 61" 1 1/16" at widest point. Thx, Paul<><
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Always strive to do the right thing. Don't beat yourself down when you mess up. Ask for forgivness and keep on keeping on.

Don't be intimidated by the wood. Just pretend you know what you are doing and with luck the wood wont realize you havn't a clue until it is too late and you have found the bow in there.   :bigsmyl:  
If nothing else you will have a lot of very valuable learning time working on that stave. Do everything like it is going to be the best bow ever built and you have a good chance of coming out with something very shootable. If you have any kids in your life you could look to make matching kid/adult bows from the one stave. Just think how cool that would be.
Keep the wind in your face and the sun at your back.
