Thanks Jimmy,this hasn't got a lot of intrest here for some reason,I know they would like it if they tried it. Great bunch of guys and not near as stuffed shirts and I thought. I would love to see the Primitive/selfbow folks over run the place. There was a ton of intrest from the Glass folks last year when they seen the Bow building/arrows and napping going on,it was cool just to watch there faces as they watched us make some of our own stuff,it was like WOW you can really make something that shoots,and shoots good.  Its like when I am ask can you really hunt with that stuff    .Priceless.
