I or eye, or aye, or  :o 

Just realized that we have two of the Mojam Yewish bowbuilders in the trade!   ;D  Still need to finish my yew bow.

Awesome! I can't wait, I'm ready to start on a nice piece of red streak Osage. If I get the right guy this stave is on the menu!

Went out this morning to my wood stash before work and looked thru the piles.  We'll prolly get a name to work on here shortly so I have to get the creative juices flowing to start the Imagineering process!  I'm kinda feeling like its going to be a laminate bow right now, but haven't really settled on anything just yet.

So what your saying is, if a guy doesnt get a piece of red streak osage, he is going to know he wasnt the right guy.  ::) >:D

If you draw me i better be the right guy gosh darnit.

I'm ready to get going, someone's getting a static with brush nocks... Whether It's osage or hackberry depends on their draw length.

Everything about me is crazy. Just ask anybody who has seen me make and string a bow.

Gotta love the red streaky osage. I just made a tillering string for the osage I am about ready to tiller. I don't know if this one will be sleek or my other trade bow. May be my other trade bow. Sounds like sleek has plenty of osage. Maybe another wood for sleek.

Im happy with whatever yew make me bob. Yew are such a great craftsman. No mater what wood yew use or bow yew make im sure yew will do a fine job. I will treasure forever any bow made by yew. Dont put yewself out on my account. Im an easy guy to please yew know? No picky, not high maintenance, not flashy... Just a real down to earth guy who appreciates the art yew put into any wood yew own.  So, like I say, dont stress what to make me. It will come to yew.

I think Sleek is really wanting a bow made out of Bradford pear or cottonwood.  >:D
