Ok guys I'm in. I'm shooting 45-50@28, right handed.
I will build a glass d/r-longbow 64".

I don't mind what kind of bow I get, I'm happy with everything.

I also shoot right handed.    
I prefer bows without a shelf...but beggers can't be choosers.

I shoot right handed.  I don't care if I get a glass or wooden bow in the swap.  Good wood is a bit scarce here in these parts, so a wooden bow would be great.

I'm willing to play this game.  I shoot right handed 53-60 lbs bows.  I'll be building a Hybrid glass bow of some sort either one or three piece.  Cant wait to see who I draw.

Fish n Chicks is IN!

I'm building my first board bow now, but it's coming along. I will be more than likely swapping a wood bow, with exotic wood accents. This one has tamboti tips and riser back (they were added after the pics   :)   ):

For the swap:

Wooden bow

I am game.

This bow will be my first shot at cedar with rawhide backing.  No shelf.  @45# at 28 if it works out.  If not I have some osage...

Thanks for letting me in!

I shoot left handed and draw 50 to 60 @ 27"/28".

I build osage selfbows of my own design. Lefty or righty. And none of that positive, negative 3 under tiller stuff... Just a hand tooled selfbow within 10# of target!

Time has been precious around my place lately, but this looks like too much fun to pass up.  

I shoot right handed, 55-60 lbs at 28 inches and any type of bow (glass, self, bamboo backed, etc.) would be fine.

I can build either an osage selfbow or a bamboo backed osage bow.
