I'm in again!!!  I really enjoyed last years swap!  I'll be making a r/d bbi.  

My general specs...
I would prefer a glass bow, I am a right hand shooter, 29" and can pull up to about 50 lbs.

However...
Last year, there were several folks who wanted a challenge.  Something very specific to build, so here's what I would like if you are up to it.  I'LL TAKE ANYTHING THOUGH, so please don't see this as being picky.

I want to bowfish.  So I'll need something in the 30lb range at 29", and an insert to hook a reel too.  It will be getting wet and generally abused more than what would be typical.  

Yee-Haw, looking forward to getting started on mine trade!

Guess if I'm gonna arbitrate I'd better be a part of the solution, not just a problem solver.

Make if official before I head out to a couple months in Texas... I'm in.

Still RH and 50-60# self bow shooter and builder.

Let me in, Its cold out side and I need something to do to keep warm.   :)  
 I would like to join the fun this year, I will build a self bow . Hopefully I draw a recipent that has a 28" or less draw,and under 55# as I have never built one for long draw shooters or heavy draw weights.I do good at 28" and less and weights 55# and less. I shoot right handed,draw 27"  and like a bow between 48 and 53# at 28" , Idealy 50#at 28" ,without glass or carbon. I have far to many with glass and carbon now.
 I am not sure the wood I will use, I have  staves that have been drying for 18 months+ and are ready to be worked.I guess the stave will tell me the style it wants to be.
 Pete

@ woodcarver.
Thanks for the snow, we really need it around here as we are a big snowmobile/ski area. So feel free to send some more, just keep that damned cold air to yourselves  :)

Just out of curiosity what day should we expect to receive our name of the person we are building for? I am starting to get real excited to build this bow..
