Stiks,
When I send you the list it has that info on it, also. I left it out, and address but it is on my list.
That is what 81 bowyers on a list looks like.
So Stiks when are you closeing the sign up high noon midnight what.

I shipped mine to Canada last year and I think it was about $40

Alright I'm in again.....stiks talked me into it.

RH
50-60#'s @ 29"

I'll be hackin' out an osage longbow. More than likely unbacked, with a little character.

I'd prefer glass to even up my bow rack, but anything will do!!! I'm excited!

I think I will wait until tomorrow around noon eastern standard time unless no one else signs up today if we don't have anyone else get in today by midnight I'll go ahead and close it so Kelly and I can get it all sorted and start sending info.

Trust me it is my pleasure.
Hope everone glances at there info and lets me know if it is not good. I have had a few PMs already and that is a good thing.
Kris the good thing is once I send you the list you can save it and next year you will only have to add the new bowyers and take out the few who dont come back.
Just shoot me a PM Stiks when you closer up til next years sign up. I will then shoot you the data. You once over it ensure I missed nothing.
Shoot it back to me with any new info I messed or you need to add.
I will then print off 2 copies one I will cut the name off of and put in a hat, bag or bowl and have my soldier draw names out until I have put a name by each bowyer. (I will do this for the 3 groups, Glass, wood and N/A).

Who doesn't like character?

Alright, I'll play- looks like too much fun to just watch. I'll build something made of wood. I shoot 45-55# @ 29.5"

Cool another cheesehead !

So tomorrow is the magic day (today if you're KellyG)to find out who we're all building for. The downside for me is that I have to go out of town for work and won't be back to check into TradGang until late Friday :( But I guess it gives me something to look forward too.

Earlier this evening, I was leafing though some back issues of Trad Archer's World and an idea hit me. I think documenting this bow swap would make for a real nice article in Trad Archer's World (or Traditional Bowhunter).

What do you all think?

I've published quite a few articles in scientific fisheries journals, but never an article in a popular magazine and it's always been something I've wanted to do. So if you all think this good idea, I'd like to take it on with some help from you guys fillin' in some of the info, providing some pics (which I know there will be plenty of), and reviewing drafts.

This could be some great exposure for the fellowship within TradGang and all the fine craftsmen here.

Let me know what you think.

sounds awesome to me.

DVSHUNTER · « **Reply #275 on:** January 12, 2011, 08:50:00 PM »

as long as it's cool with terry I thing it will be cool.

jsweka · « **Reply #276 on:** January 12, 2011, 09:22:00 PM »

DVSHUNTER - good advice. I'll check with Terry to see if it would be OK.

I don't want to step on any toes with this idea, so if anyone has any objections, please let me know.
