Looking forward to getting a copy.  will you have a booth at Denton?  If so, perhaps I can be lucky enough to get my paws on one there?

I doubt that I'll have a booth at Denton, but if books are ready I'll connect with another vendor so that books will be available for sale.

The publisher says they will produce an electronic version for Kindle and similar devices, but I'm not sure of the timing in relation to the print version.

Thanks to everyone for your well wishes!

No guesses on those limb tips?

I'll give you a hint. Two of the bows, by different makers, were made in Michigan.

No idea on the bows, but congrats on getting a book published!

Congrats on the book Ron, I wish you well with sales.

I originally thought the middle one was a whip too but I misread the hint and thought all bows were made in Michigan. Oh well.

You guys are very good and very close, but I'm staying mum until we have a few more guesses.

This is fun...

I am going to place a Guess though when I am done with this online class I am taking

Ron,

Those guesses are all from never seeing an American bow, ever. I just dream of having one of any of your (States) awesome bows one day.

Toelke Whip
Centuar
Big Jims
Widow Longbow
MOAB
Kanati

Any of them.....    :archer:

It sounds like this book is going to make an excellent addition to my library!  Congratulations on seeing this project through Ron!

Thanks, Whip!

PZee has one right...pretty good for living on another continent!

Charlie has 3 of 4!!

Feel free to keep guessing.

I'll let this ride a little longer to see if we get a few more players, then we'll wrap it up with the person who is closest.

Up for tonight and tomorrow.

After that, if there are no other guesses, it looks like Charlie will be our winner!

I'm surprised that more of you aren't taking a crack at identifying those limb tips...

It's been nearly a week since we've had any entries, so I'm going to call it.

Charlie was the closest with three right, so he wins a free book when they become available this summer. Congratulations, Charlie!

Please send me your mailing address and I'll make sure that you get one of the first books off the press.

The correct answers were.

Thanks to all for playing along and chiming in.
