Anybody feeling like Pat should hang better go through this entire thread and read EVERY post. For that matter read every post on here and tell me where it went south and who is to blame.

As far as knocking countries of origin, good riddance. We are all proud of where we are from, or at least should be.

Yep Ritch I think that political comment about our country was uncalled for,and many a time I get advice I don't want to hear too Pat.Not so much any more because I realized they are right.

Oh well, a teaching moment has been lost  :).  The political comment was a deal breaker anyway, little does he know that Pat is Canadian  ;D

Every once in a while we get a person that asks questions and just refuses to believe the answers. I don't know if they just don't phrase the questions right or if they are just full of themselves. Sometimes it's tough to get a question in print. If you are reading this Chris go back and re-read the whole post. It was all good advice, honestly given. Some people a blunt sure, but at least you know they aren't dumbing it down for you. I would rather have someone tell the truth and piss me off then have them encourage me to do something that they honestly think you're going to have trouble with.

Everyone knows the USA sucks.  Should have left it to the native americans, at least they could build decent bows unlike all you immigrants!!!  8) 8) 8)

I didn't mean that their advice was bad (after all they have much more experience), just that I wish that it was possible safely. from MReiska's videos, it's still possible, just need exceptional wood and stuff I think.
heck, even with the 'safer' recommended methods, bows still break..
