Your bow looks very nice Bona. Any chance for a full draw pic?    I think the brace height is a bit high but if it shoots well, that is our goal!

Sorry Pat. She's all packed up. We'll have to get that from the owner. I was late getting to the post office so it will have to be tomorrow.

Stiks

Finally got mine sent out today. It's suppose to arrive on Tuesday to its new owner! I hope to see mine soon. Whenever a shipping truck drives by I run outside like a little kid to an ice cream van.

I hear you Kansan LOL I been the same way for three weeks. I got a message from my bowyer today and he said it will ship this week.

 I sent your builder a message but haven't heard anything yet but don't panic. I'll track him down.

Bona,

You might not know this but Steven is a dear friend of mine.  We've shared elk camp several times and it's possible I helped him cut the wood that bow was made from.   You are one lucky lady  :)

The bow you made looks mighty fine too!

I'm getting in late tonight but I had to log in and say thank you to Bona.  When I got home this evening, there was a long white package waiting for me and I had to laugh when I saw that it was from Bona Glass.  It seems that we drew each other's name.  I'm excited that I got the bow that she made and it looks great!  Haven't got to shoot it yet but I hope to get the chance to this weekend.

Again Bona, thank you so much for the bow and also, thank you Kris for organizing this bow swap.  It's been a great experience.

Steve

PS - Thanks for the kind words John.  Are you sure you can't make it out for elk camp this year? Can't you hear the bugling right now? :-)

I'm tickled pink that you like the bow! Be sure and let me know how you think it shoots. I am thrilled with the bow you made for me!

John, I was catching on that you and Steven might be friends and could hardly keep the secret that I was making a bow for him. This has been fun and a great learning experience! I just might be a decent bowyer some day!

Thanks Kris!!!

it's awsome that this whole thing is turning out so good.

 Don't just thank me, it took everybody getting in to make it go. I really enjoyed putting it together and look forward to many more.

 Can't wait till next year! I'm already planning my bow out for the trade.
