[Lost Creek Bows]

I'LL be working on some instock stuff the next month and I'm going to use them for the web site pics and maybe hit some shows. This winter and spring.

I guess I'll never really know what it takes to put a bowyer on the most wanted list. You know how there are a number of them out there who seem to struggle to keep orders filled and some who must work elsewhere to suppliment their income. It's interesting because I see so much talent yet something seems to suppress some bowyers from gaining a foothold. For example take Centaurs waiting list it seems always backed up. Yes, Jim makes a wonderful bow but what got him there? Was it style, wood selection, finish, shootability,word of mouth, time, or a combo of all above. I guess what brings this up is I've owned one of Chad's bows for some time now and shoot it as well as any bow but maybe no better. I got it second hand and love to grab it and get out and shoot. I wouldn't say Chad's design is super unique but it is a beautiful, functional design and seems anyone would be proud to own one. So what will put a man like him on the most wanted list? Will it be several more years of Tradgangers posting pics and comments to boost his or other's sales? Have any of you ever wondered why some bows just dont seem to get the recognition you think they deserve?

VERY glad to hear everything is ok and you are still building bows. One of these days I will be getting one!

I'm suprised all the forward grip longbow builders aren't swamped 24/7. If it weren't for the economy, and catching up on bills now that we are stable, I would be ordering!

There area so many really good bowyers out there.its supply and demand. The economy has something to do with it to of course.ive got a tom deputy bow a hybrid there was a test onit on thetrad archery gazette web page. Filet mignon performance was ones description. And faster and easier to shoot etc.he still has his day job.one well known bowyer in it for 30 yrs is only 3 month's out.our elected officials could do more for the unemployed if they'd could agree on a plan.or course half the. Voters wanted to elect a man that has sent 66thousand jobs out of the country.any racist thought I had vanished when fellow marine bill brown was put on outpost with me 48 yrs ago.well I guess ill shutup and go get a beer.
