"WOW!" is all I can say. You guys have not disappointed. I have ended up scheduling a hunt in Nebraska that I will be leaving on the 10th of December. What better way to shorten the long drive from CA than to be mulling over the hundreds of entries. So, I have decided to end the contest a few days early so I can review them on my looooong drive eastward. I'll let all of you know by the 15th what I've decided.
I have to confess, I've temporarily used up all of my creativity working on getting this bow ready for production and I still haven't come up with a name for it.
So, I decided to enlist some help from my fellow tradgangers and give away one of the new longbows to the winner. Before you attack your keyboard, let me tell you what I am after. In addition the the bow picture (also, check out this thread for more pictures and description
http://tradgang.com/noncgi/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=096291 ), I will also be building a traditional longbow handle that the limbs will interchange between the two handles. Also, I will be building interchangeable recurve limbs for the two handles.
Pictured are the carbon inlayed limbs
So, here is what I need from the winner: three names for each handle (there will be three different models for each handle, distinguished by different patterns with the accent stripes like my recurve line) for a total of six names.
You can spin them as a theme, or come up with six random names. I will keep the contest open until December 15th. Post your ideas on this thread and I'll be taking a bow order on December 16th. I'm looking forward to your help!
