Offer for any new bowyers going to the Tenn. Classic
« on: February 18, 2012, 07:18:03 pm »
Are there are any new bowyers or anybody that doesn't have access to osage going to the Tenn. Classic?  If so, I have some low quality pieces of osage that I would be willing to bring to give away.  They might be twisted, crooked, have thin rings, and/or have knots in them.  You might be able to get a bow from them.  I know George Stoneberg could  ;D  They would be good for practicing on if nothing else.  Let me know if you are interested or if you know of someone that might be so I know how much to bring.  If there is more interest than what I have, I will keep a list of who responded first.

Bowmakers are a little bent, but knappers are just plain flaky.

I think this is a great idea.  I may have an extra to give away as well.  I will try to remember to bring one for a new person.  Just look me up and I will set you up.

I won't be there but I would love to get a couple of the worst looking staves possible.  I have been wanting a couple of osage walking sticks with wood spirits carved in them.

Here are a few pics from some of Clints not so desirable staves. Clint is a stand up, first class, wonderful man. Keep giving and it will come back to you ten fold buddy.  ;)

Nice offer Outlaw, I'll be there but only Fri/Sat/Sun, probably won't have time to make my first bow, huh?  Hope to meet you face-to-face there.  Again, sweet offer, dpgratz

Three days is enough time to make 4 or 5 bow uke man! Would you do me a favor and shake Clints hand for me when you meet him?
