TradBowyer, I'm sure you will be able to find someone in bow shop to help you out. But, on Friday through Sunday, the official days of the Classic, the bow shop is open to Selfbow Challenge participants so it will have to be either before the Classic starts(folks will be there a week before) or after 6pm in the evening. Selfbow Challenge participants take priority. Your 14 year old son, and yourself, ought to sign up for the Selfbow Challenge and make a bow with the help of some of the best self bowyers in the country.
