English Warbow Forum is Down!!!

[D. Tiller]

Well, for all of you English Warbow lovers the "English Warbow" Forum is now down and possibly for good. Just got an e-mail from nick notifying all the subscribers. Bummer! I learned a lot from that forum.

Nick mentioned it was getting to be a full time job and he needed to look into alternatives.

JD and all those others on that board: "Lets tip a pint back to the Warbow Forum!"

Yeah, bummer.
But now PA or Paleoplanet has an opportunity to accomodate warbow shooters for a while. How about a new discussion area: Warbows

Well you guys will have to spread the word about this forum to all the English Bow guys so that they can come here

Hey guys. Good to see some of the old crew assembling here.

For what its worth I may have just found a decent North American source for 36" ash, poplar and beech shafting. Once I get my initial order sorted weighed and spined I'll have a better idea whether this really will be a decent source for long arrow shafts or not. If anyone is interested let me know.
Marlon,  I already sent you a PM.

Hi Steve, nice to see you here.

I could do with attending a course like yours (not that I'll ever have the time). I just had a terrible day with cracks appearing all over my yew stave - I'm never going to get the hang of yew.
