Congrats John, great idea. Will boo backed bows count in your build along too?

I will be building a bow at the balt trad classic May 16-18th with ancestral knowledge. So a nice stave with nice late wood growth rings would be very helpful for a fella like me.  

This will be my first bow build.

I have vol 1 and 2 of the bowyers bible.  And plan on taking a bunch of pictures.  Do I need vol 4?

Hey Guys. You don't NEED any TBB for John's offer or to build a selfbow (although I've read all 4).
Study John's website or this and get with it:
 http://tradgang.com/noncgi/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=000046  

Great offer John!

Coaching baseball and other commitments won't allow me to participate, but I'll be watching for sure.
Hats off to you, John!!
