Light wood,
Dark wood,
White wood with some stain.

Straight grain,
Figured grain,
All grain is the same.

A straight stick,
A curved stick,
A two piece or maybe three.

As long as it's a bow
That someone made for me!

WTF Roy??? :confused:

i think you gotta go back to work man.
way too much time on your hands for your twisted brain to sit and stew and ferment :D
i hope your good woman is not retired, and spending all her time at home ALONE with you...for her sake! if she was i would start a "roys ol'lady support group"

well... keep it up i guess- i always look for your posts anyway!

Well I'm not very picky at all. I appreciate the craftsmanship that is in every kind of bow BUT..lolol. If for some reason I was able to choose for this year I would like a selfbow most of all because that's the one style of bow that I do not have and have not made yet. The color and style doesn't. I most certainly wouldn't be disappointed with any of the other choices though. Ok I think I've managed to type a lot of words and not really answer the question..lol

No I won`t answer this sorry- maybe my builder usually does and planned something totally different and I don`t want him to doubt about his plan and bend him in worst case to another direction!
But I can say I usally build my own longbows,although I`m open to others, and shipping overseas is more easy for a shorter package...
`nough said^^

Whatever I receive will be wonderful. I'm not picky. d;^)

kennym · « **Reply #11 on:** January 18, 2014, 04:34:00 PM »

Heck, I'm good with any of em! Builder's choice!

There, that makes it easy , right? :D

ranger 3 · « **Reply #12 on:** January 18, 2014, 04:49:00 PM »

I don't have a two or three piece but any bow will do.

heartlandbowyer · « **Reply #13 on:** January 18, 2014, 05:14:00 PM »

I will be happy with whatever I receive, although I don't have a good Osage self or a tri lam. Maybe a selfy with flipped tips. Or glass is cool too, got a sweet one from Kenny last year.

What I like about builders choice is seeing how they do it. And the craft they use building!!

David Flanrey · « **Reply #18 on:** January 18, 2014, 07:44:00 PM »

I like to see the different process too.

Don't see many two piece bows. So I say two piece.

David Flanrey · « **Reply #19 on:** January 18, 2014, 07:49:00 PM »

Ha Ha. Now I see that wasn't a choice. I like em all!!!
