2014 Annual Bow Swap

[mjwhitby]

You have much to be proud of!!! That bow is flawless! Perfect all the way around! It shoots straight hits hard and is dead silent. I'm sure I speak for a lot of people when I say that people with that kind of attitude is what this world needs more of.

May god bless you in all your journeys.

Justin, if you need a stick bow to hunt with this fall, I will   "lend" you one of mine. That is if you think you can pull 40 - 45 pounds..    

Your a good man, dude.. Roy

[MoeM]

Guess you can put me off the list too- my bow is at the customs office- since last friday... after explaining to the officer he told me he`d send it soon- but I dunno when soon is.
This waiting really kills me!

[razorback]

Well I heard from my bowyer and am looking forward to receiving my bow in a week or two. Not going to spill the beans on who it is but the delay is very understandable. Good luck to all this fall, Bear opens this weekend for me and I have a little rascal who has bugged me all summer who has a big ole target on him.

[KellyG]

MoeM Let me know when you have it in hand for sure.

[MoeM]

Sure I`ll let yall know...
But I sent an email to the officer and he told me he handed it back to the postal service on tuesday, while 4-5 days shall be "on time" for the transport from customs to customer (ok in my case this means 4-5 days for 45km....) so I`m looking forward to get it today.

[MoeM]

Those go***mn mot*****kas...
I checked the tracking key and realized the package moved from customs center (45km away) to destination depot (20km) to export center (200km).
So after spending this whole morning in several hotlines talking to about 20 people, getting redirected and kicked out the line hundreds of times while listening to fu***d up hotline jingles one finally told me "something went wrong".
Now he`s trying to stop it before departure back over the pond- anyway this means another week or so days before I can get it.
And me- I feel actually like I gotta smash sth. or so.!

[canopyboy]

Wow, that sucks! Makes a person almost wanna drive the 200 km and rescue the bow quickly!

[goobersan]

I have finally shipped my bow. Expect delivery on Tuesday. Thank you for your patience    

[bowhntineverythingnh03743]

Any finished pics goober

[goobersan]

Sorry, I guess we'll have to rely on my recipient for the money shot.

[KellyG]

Ok 6 in the mail I hope Moe's gets to him and not back here. If that happens I might know of a way to get it back there a bit more easier. If I have any friends stationed there. I could ship it to them. Moe any us Army post near ya?

I got a lot closer to getting mine shipped out and so far it is my best tiller to date I think. I am about 7# over weight for my recipient. So I may have to start a new one. Don't want them straining something.

Ok here it is at the requested draw length and about 7# over.

 

I have shoot it a few times and think I might glue on layer leather for a rest. I will do it a piece at a time on the bow because I need it to lay with the contour.

hope to get it out the door very soon. I am going to take it to work and let a few right handed folk shoot it a bit tomorrow. It will put 28 no problem. And quiet as a ghost.

[bowhntineverythingnh03743]

Looks great Kelly! I'm ok with the extra weight myself! Tiller looks spot on

[MoeM]

Really nice Kelly wouldn`t mind calling her mine at all...
The dude said he could stop my package- as far as I know most Army facilities in my area are abandoned today.

[razorback]

Kelly, you have really got that stick looking like a bow, congratulations.
Good luck Moe, playing with customs is a pain in the rump. I still have packages from Australia circling the world for a couple of years.

[bigbob2]

I sure know that feeling Razorback!

[goobersan]

USPS says package is in transit to it's destination.
Someone is getting a new bow tomorrow!

[bowhntineverythingnh03743]

Just praying it lands on my doorstep... Felt so awkward carrying a wheel bow into the stand tonight for the NH opener!

[John Scifres]

Kelly,

Just keep scraping.  The tiller is looking really nice and you can easily lose 7# in shooting her in and finishing up the tiller.
