Well we are down to 88 bowyers now. One more had to leave.

[Dan Landis]

Rick, I like hop hornbeam too, don't have a lot of it here though. Most of what I get seems to have a lot of knots and pins, but if you can get a clean stave or two, it makes a good bow....Dan

[David Flanrey]

Some nice bows being made right now.

  I like the artwork on your bow dino.

Y'all are a buncha whiners. I mean come on, I have three kids and there has been maybe 2 days in the last 3 weeks where we have not had multiple events. One evening last week we had 5 events for 3 kids  Thank God school is out on Wednesday and Musical, Choir(s), band, soccer and track are also done.

Thanks John.
I was about to post and make a bunch of excuses about being busy and not being able to get my bow done yet etc etc. Then I read your post and realized I need to listen to my own advise. I always tell my kids that "excuses are like butts, everyone has one and they all stink" Tome to extract the proverbial digit from the stinky butt and get it done.

[Roy from Pa]

I'm looking forward to seeing a lot of nice bow pictures and a lot of happy guys faces when the tube shows up in the mail.

[SportHunter]

61 bows to go in the next 43 days...things are going to get busy in here very soon.

[WestTexan]

Sure a buncha nice ones being built that's for sure. Looks like after a month of trying to get some sleeves....I logged in and checked and had a set ship out yesterday. First weekend off in 6 or 7 weeks other than a funeral last month and sure wanted to get a bow about done this weekend. Got a real nice 6 foot roadkill Bull snake ready for some wood tho.

Goodness does anybody else completly suck at lebeling bows? Mine always look like a 2 year old scratched around with a marker. lol

[wood carver 2]

[KellyG]
