[Dmaxshawn]

Fine looking accent stripe in that bow cory.   Holy moly bud thats a beaut for sure

[Dmaxshawn]

I shipped my bow a couple of moons ago and it says its arrived but I have not seen any conformation.  Kelly ???

[KellyG]

I have you marked as shipped and the bow as received. It might have been in a PM. But not tracking any issues with it.

[MoeM]

Hey Shawn I did! (say that I love it) `Bout 3-4 pages ago- I`ll look for it later, busy right now.....

[MoeM]

Hey Shawn thank you dude, excellent work. Don`t know if there wasn`t a string or the suckers at customs stole it but fortunatly I had a suitable one from my failed swap bow so I can already say it has a really buttery draw and an awesome profile- can`t wait to shoot her!

Ed.: do you have a recomendation regarding spine and pointweight for my 29,5" draw (wooden arrows, heavier setup) and a recomended brace range?

[heartlandbowyer]

Thanks Shawn, she's a shooter too. With any luck it will run an arrow through a big bear up NW.

for woodies I shot some tapered 50-55's with a 125 field point and she handled them very well.  Brace is 7.25-7.5 .   Sorry about the string I'm guessing it was removed at customs and never put back.   SBD string 56 inches.  She really zips an arrow pretty quick.  Enjoy her Bud.

Well I got home from work today and found a long tube waiting for me!!! Inside was a great looking longbow from Willhimes! Had just enough time to shoot a few before dark and it puts 'em right where I'm lookin'! I'll get some pictures up ASAP. Thanks Joe, you did a real fine job.

[redbeard126]

Sorry I meant Millhimes!

[KellyG]

Ok only four more bows are needed to get to their new homes and 2 are in the mail. Man will this be the earliest year we get done. Will Kelly get a break before the next swap. Stay tuned as the 2014 Tradgang Bow swap comes to its conclusion.

[Roy from Pa]

2012? HUH?

[timbermoose]

That's what I was thinking Roy. Had to check the calendar.

[Roy from Pa]

Me too, for a while there I was 2 years younger..    Dammit anyways...

[razorback]

Hey Roy does that mean you have to go back to work .
I'm off work today so I have to decide to go to the basement and work on some osage or sit on the porch and wait for the mailman. He usually comes around noon so I think I'll chase a ring, get some honey-do's done and wait for him while eating some venison stew for lunch.

[razorback]

 Back to the basement. Mailman came and went without stopping. Maybe tomorrow.

[Draffish]

wow guys been keeping a watch as this years trade goes through its progression and just want to say there isnt one bow thats been made that anyone would say no to your all creating such amazing looking bows its an inspiration to all us newbies.

[Roy from Pa]

[KellyG]
