Great looking group. One thing I love about the BOM is that when I'm analyzing every detail to narrow the vote, it helps to to be mindfull of how I can improve the bow that I'm working on. This is what learning from each other and insiring each other is all about! Great job guys!  Now to analyze and throw the dart! >:D

Great looking bows but I'm saddened by the size of the field.  The new rules seem to be destroying the relevence of the contest.  The winner can only wonder if his entry was truly the bow of the month, or if one of the newly-ineligible bows was the class of the field.  Boys, I know many of you are too humble to nominate your bow for the vote, but it sure used to be nice to catch up on everybody's work at the end of every month.

It seems that a lot of people missed the rule change and have been asking why their bow wasn't submitted so I will post this here.

Hello all.  I wanted to remind you all to submit your bows for the BOM contest.  You just have two simple things to do:

1.  PM me with the link of your bow post

2.  Include your subscription number with your PM (required by the magazine)

Thanks in advance and keep building, keep posting and keep promoting the positive aspects of Primitive Archery.

I think the winner is the winner!    ;D
It has nothing to do with anything other than the best bow submitted that month wins.
Next month, the best bow will win.

That's pretty much how a contest goes.   ;D

These are some really fantastic bows.  The fact that there are fewer bows, gives me the opportunity to look in more detail at each, and that makes it hard to choose, because like I said, these are some sweet bows.  Well done y'all.

I mean no disrespect. All the bows in this vote are all really AWSOME, and whom ever wins is more than deserving with out a question regardless of the #of bows submitted. That being said I for one love the involvement of the people on this site and the more people who submit the more art in one place to enjoy!!! Best of luck to all ;) and thanks once again for keeping this contest alive criveraville  ;D

soy,

I totally agree. This site is filled with lots of art and art for arts sake is the best of human expressions.  Thank you amigo ;) I'm glad to be a part of it with George helping out a great deal.
