Is Mitch the only one left or is John still waiting?

John?

I think the three were Joe, Mitch, and Beyaz. Joe got his yew a few pages back (you posted the pic for him Roy). The bow to Beyaz has been delivered, we still need to hear from him that it was delivered to the correct person. Which just leaves Mitch who knew it would be a little while.

Technically Kelly is still riding herd on the 2017 swap, so I'm sure he'll correct me when he gets a chance if I'm missing something.

Ink

I'm amazed to read this!
Good guys that stepped up to fill in for the #$%^@#*&^'s that took a free bow and ran.
If they aren't dead or darn near it there isn't an excuse at this point.
Even if they aren't dead..they could have at least sent their new bow as a replacement.

Shame on em!

Wow, you're going even farther back than when Kelly said he was down to three. I don't think you missed it, but it did kind of go away. My understanding from Kelly is that John worked something out with his bowyer directly and things were good as far as the swap goes.

Glad it made it. Hope it works well for you. That is definitely one of the better full draw pics that have been posted.

Glued up the zebra wood for the riser...

 


Got the riser block squared up...

And Kenny sent me these wonderful looking walnut veneers!

 


Roy, I won't say exactly what Kenny said about using the veneers in your bow...but I am going to use them anyway.    :)  

Thanks again Kenny!

That's funny!  Unusual that my name was drawn - I usually am the last one drawn in the give away when everyone is a winner.    :)

If you won some glass you would just have to build a glass bow is all.     :eek:

Everything ready to go for glue up Roy.

 


Dry run looked good...now for the slick sticky mess - might try and get it done this afternoon.
