Bernie Dunn-Archery Superhero

Well, we all know that the multi-talented Mr Dunn is a model for the Cheer leading industry, a part time comedian, Grandfather, and now he's a Famous Bowyer. You guys can get the whole story in the latest addition of Primitive Archer Magazine. Looks like Bern is the latest up-n-coming Bowyer. Congrats on placing in the bow contest Bern! Good for you! I'm glad to see you continuing to pursuit difficult tasks such as Bowyery. Congrats again! CK

Wow - this is a thing to see in the first slot as I opened Tradgang just now. Thanks for the heads-up and the kind words, Curtis. Haven't got my copy yet, and had no idea 2nd place would get in. Of Course, as I said, it was an honor to be beat by Gordon F. I love his bows.

I really love the bowyering thing. Even as we speak I am doing the finish on the Sister glue-up to mine that my mentor Mike Brooks made into a fine, quick bow (but with a Bamboo backing and Purpleheart in the riser). He told me I shot it better than him (I doubt it, but it did behave well for me) so to take it home and sand and finish it - LOL - It's coming out "Purty" and was already sweet. He also has started me on my first Osage stave (a pretty stave that I hope I can do justice to). Thank you, Mike, for refusing to hear that I was too old to start a(nother) new hobby, and thanks again, Curtis.

Oh, Bernie... I'm so PROUD!  :)

And, btw, you're much cuter than the travelocity Gnome...   :knothead:

Thanks, all (and thanks for the proper spelling on Travelocity, Doc, I couldn't remember earlier - LOL I corrected it now so folks will know what I was talking about.)

Congrats, friend!
