"The grass is always greener on the other side"     This saying comes to mind for me. I get a couple of great "dream bows" and then I make the mistake of looking at the classifieds! I start to thinking of how a bow would shoot, how it looks...and before you know it I am reaching for the mouse.  I haven't caved into the desire yet! But it is still there....excuse me, I need to go check something out...   :)

I was having some trouble getting a starter bow and I'm wondering if it was the collectors bidding high on me! A wall full of bows (at least, the low-weight ones) could mean somebody, or somebodies, somewhere else, who don't have something to shoot. So thanks very much for putting these back out into the world. You might be giving up the tools but I think you'll be promoting the skills when you do.  Thanks and pass on the gift!

You guys mean I won't be happy with my first bow? I love her. How can you be so promiscuous?    :eek:

NCH,

Thinking back, I have bought and sold over 100 bows over the last 10 years. My first bow was a take down recurve made by a fellow in Montana that is not making bows because of a serious auto accident that incompassitated his son. Wish I could remember his name.  :knothead:   That was one fine bow that I would love to have back and I could have been totally happy with that one. I think I sold that to Country Birl down in Florida. If you got a good one hang on to it.
