You guys are making it difficult to back away. I'm thinking that if you aren't in a big hurry I could build a few through the year...?
Sixby we can talk.  I love arrows. I find it hard to deny others that love them too. If you contact me when you are ready I will tell you a time frame.

Sorry to hear it, David, but I understand.  Best wishes going forward.  Have a Very Merry Christmas and a Great 2016!

David, I don't mind waiting. I will give you a call after Christmas and get an order in. Don't mind prepaying either if that helps you out any. My order will be 2 doz and both fancy with splices so waiting is not a problem.

God bless and thanks so much, Steve

Another snoozer here!  I was planning to order two or three dozen after the holidays.  I completely understand David and wish you the very best!

I would sure be interested in purchasing a detailed video on how you go about making such great arrows!

Dave:

I'm down to slightly less than 5 dozen of your beautifully hand crafted arrows and just in case I ever do run out just remember, I know where you live!  You know what they say; you can run, but you can't hide.

David, you obviously have built quite a following with your amazing arrows.Looks like you are already finding it difficult to say no. You are probably our best customer and advocate. I still have a dozen forgewoods I was hoping you might make up for me. And of course the freight policy hasn't changed. Best of luck in whatever you take on next. I cherish our friendship immensely.   Surewood Bob

David, very sorry to hear this.  I wish you well moving forward into future endeavors.  The success of your business is not only a testament of your product but of the caliber of your character.  Having done business with you personally, you will be missed.

Wow, I'm surprised your closing down. I wish you the best in what ever you decide to do in the future.
I hope, if you do make some arrows up in the future you post pictures of them. I've always admired your work. Thanks for all your help. I hope to still see you at shoots around the state.

Thanks for all your posts and amazing arrow pics. I love the Set you made me and I've been dreaming about the next set for the new TBD bow I'll finally get one day.

Best of luck on your new ventures
