A quick thanks to Raptor Archery

[PurpleCajun]

I just wanted to drop a note to Ted that all could see.

First, he's been a big help in my process of adopting this new "hobby" of traditional archery.  He even pointed me to this site.

Second, I've been teaching a friend of mine how to make arrows (which I learned to do from Ted). As a result of this, I've needed to make a couple quick orders from Raptor Archery.  Ted put everything together for me in an incredibly quick fashion, and even went above and beyond by shipping me out some of his own cresting paint since the store was out of stock.  I received everything just in time to go to my workshop and teach my friend.  

I've now got a dozen arrows drying on the line in the shop, and my friend has learned a great deal about being more self-sufficient when it comes to traditional archery.  An added bonus is that my buddy and I have gotten in a lot of target practice between dye/paint/sealant coats.  

It may have been possible without Ted's help, but certainly not as easy.  I appreciate the help and incredible service.

Thanks Ted.

Yep Ted is a good help all right. He sent some gear over to me here in Oz... no troubles at all.

I'll use Raptor whenever I can from now on.

Keep at it Ted.

Ted Rocks!  Even when he's in his busy season he always has time to chat a while when I call him.  He's always been a huge help.  Ted is one of the good guys for sure!

Nothing but good things to say about Ted and his excellent advice and service.
Last summer my son and I spent a week in Hood River making selfbows with Ted-what a great way to spend some quality time in such wonderful surroundings!

Hey Bjorn , when are you and Adam going to go pig hunting? Looks as though we will be doing the bow building class in Santa Inez for the Chumash people again in March , we should set something up around Coalinga.

Ted, that looks like a cool shop.  Lots of nice goodies as well as a great place to hang out.  Would you mind posting more pics of it?  I'd like to see those shoulder mounts, too!    

[Ted Fry]

I am working on that very thing Woody .
I am setting up to do a virtual tour of the shop and museum. Stay tuned .
Better yet come on up and we can sit and break rocks together.

[Chris Surtees]

Well since both Ted and Woody(knife river) are here I will show off their creations that I will be using next year.

Chris, I want the points back.  And don't bother taking them off the shafts.  I'll take them "as is."      

Ted, those arrows are gorgeous.      

Look forward to breaking rocks with you one of these days.  Maybe we can find a bear to chase around the woods, too.

Hey Ted, looks like things are going well for you. Have you moved into your new location yet? How was fishing on the Klick this fall?

[Bjorn]

Ted, I don't know how many are in your party, or what your schedule is like, but we could talk about doing a Hog Hunt and bow build at Hog's Wild in Coalinga??

Could I play, too?  That sounds like massive fun.

I got lucky enough to visit his shop last year....and YES, there a TON of cool stuff in there....don't plan on a ten minute visit, as you will be late to where ever you are going next.
