These good looking/performing red oak board bows are now routine for Bubster. And many others are doing similarly.
We, of course, have Bubby and Jawge to thank for the info/experience shared with aspiring bowyers around the world.
But there's tens, if not hundreds, of folk here on PA who have inspired others to make their 1st bows. And then their 2nd. And then . . . .
I vaguely remember reading a thread from several years ago focused on a red oak board bow challenge on PA.
As I recall, the idea was to send your completed bow to a central point and a couple fellas would evaluate them on various attributes. Some of those bows were so iffy that evaluators were more than a bit hesitant about shooting 'em.
Today, there's so much info and knowledgeable folk available to lend willing hands that it's virtually impossible (except for me) to make a unsafe rocket launcher.
Each of you on PA has made positive contributions to this state of affairs and, rightfully, should give yourselves a "job well done" pat on the back.
