I'm feelin' SNAKEBIT!!!!
« on: June 23, 2009, 07:46:00 PM »
I've got that feeling. Yep, it's that Snakebit feeling. Who has had that feeling before?  ;)  Got a message about picking it up Monday! A little drive, avoiding the mail services opportunity for doing damage to it, on Monday sounds good. Drive past the elk at Dean Creek. Head up to the shop. Talk with Norm. See the other bows he is working on. Then get that beauty in my hands and shoot it! Been a long gestation period!   :biglaugh:

You mean I've been sweet talking your mailman for NOTHING??!!!

Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

Accidents happen Killie...nothing against carriers....just playing it safe. Besides it gives me a chance to talk with Norm and look around the shop....tools and wood and partially build bows...oh boy!  :biglaugh:

Make sure you take your camera with you while you're at Norm's- love to see some pics of his operation, and of some bows building!

I looked at the site...wow are those bows nice.

Love his use of Myrtle and he should have a bunch of that since he lives in OR...home of the wonderful wood.

Felix, if I can find our bow I'll shoot it! I mean I'll take some pictures of it and send them your way! haha

Foxtail, I don't know if pictures of Norm's setup is allowed...top secret stuff you know! But I'll see if I can get a few for you.  :D  

Yes Okie, it is a sickness...there is no cure! But thankfully this bow will keep me healthy for quite some time! haha

David, does that mean you will bring it to Rod's class for all of us to shoot?  Well, at least to look at.

That might happen. For the next few weeks I'll probably not take it out of my sight!
