Well I will start drawing names tomorrow. And get them out by the weekend. If I give you a name you have had before let me know. I will swap it.

Hope you all have fun.

[soy]

thanks for all the hard work Kelly  

[bigbob2]

Kelly I'm not sure how that list reads , whether its what one s making or hoping to receive. I 'm happy to get any type, self, glass or whatever. I can make from 30# to 60# in glass.

[inksoup]

uh i am late i know but... if there is still room for one more person i am in too..

will require:
RH 50-60# @ 28" whatever bow. but i MUST be at least two pieces take down to be shipped. otherwise it will be big big problem for you and me.

i will build:
glass backed, 2 pieced bow rh 40# @28" bow. any body interested?

best.

[MoeM]

Guess I know what to build;
TD version of my   58"hybrid  , maybe piking few inches, playing with taper and p-lam/wedges and giving the riser a straight edgy(existing word?) look in red/black actionwood with maybe white accents. I`m planning to keep the riser real wide for an ultra ergonomic pistol grip, "cooler" pads and a centershot window.
Limbs will be black glass with red or black dyed edges.
Shall give a modern, agressive and technical look. I hope I`ll get a recipient for whom this may be adorable...
(otherwise I gotta use "usual" woods and look for streak-free clear)

[Roy from Pa]

Bob, the list represents what the guy wants to receive.

[KellyG]

Well It is simple if you know how to read it I guess.

Ok  the date is when you need to ship by, your name, Type of bow your building, then drawing stats, then the type of bow you want in return (that is only guaranteed to the type you build though). So to clarify you build glass you get glass, or build a self and want a self, if your request but if you build a self  and want glass or build a glass and want a self you don't have priority to get one.

but this year there are way more glass folks and very few really caring what they want so I think all will be happy in the end. (I hope)

Hope that all makes sense

Ink Glad to have you I will add you. I was just getting ready to verify info and draw some names.

[Dmaxshawn]

I'll get us started.  I'm going to use these Myrtle lams I ground with boo cores and either a coco riser or either a Bostagone walnut riser

 

[KellyG]

WOW I am glad I have not pushed names out I might have to swap with someone.

After Lunch I will push some names out. I need to limp in an get me something now.

[Roy from Pa]

Awesome, Shawn..

[MoeM]

Really stunning lams there! I would be afraid they could divert me while shooting....

[timbermoose]

Dmax, WOW! just wow! them are gonna look sweet.

[razorback]

Well I just got my name and now to get started stalking my guy and seeing what he likes.

[Trapper Rob]

Here's what I'm working on boo backed walnut core & osage belly.
 
 

[Trux Turning]

Wow those are nice Shawn!! Send them my way...

[soy]

[Dmaxshawn]

yea ok david those are kinda plain compared to what you usually turn out......

[Echatham]

bwahahaha (thats supposed to be an evil laugh)  my victim has been identified.  I'm excited.  now... got to pick out the right stick of wood.    

[KellyG]

Ok let me explain the info I sent out I forget it makes no sense to anyone but me.
I am using my imfo.

Name you can ignore the self that is what I am building then my draw stats LH split finger and the N/A means I dont care if it is a glass or wood bow. If there is glass or wood there then they want a glass or wodd bow. Make sense I hope so. PM if you have any questions.

[heartlandbowyer]

If the recipient has a June ship date do we hold the bow made for them until they ship? Or will you add the "hold" to the pm you send to us?

Thanks
Cory
