Thank you guys for all of the kind words. This is something I have wanted to do for a long time. Thank you  Pappy and Twin oaks for putting on the Tenn.classic. I had the time of my life. I want to kill a deer with everything I made this year.

Very nice looking bow!  Enjoy hunting with it this fall!  Words can't express the feelings you will have walking into the woods with "your" bow!

I remember seeing that bow being made. Spent quite some time watching the shavings and talking with Whitefeather, well at least while he still had his voice. Looks great chief, I'm glad to see you finish it. Wished I could say the same. I did work on my some today though. The knapping bug bit me at the classic like everybody said it would and well I'm just now getting back to the shavings and not chips.
Once again it looks great. Can'nt wait to see at next year's classic.

Talking trees. What do trees have to talk about, hmm... except the consistency of squirrel droppings?

it absolute amazes me at all the first bows that I see on this site.  I think the selfbow craft is in some good hands for the future. :) :) :)

You have to take some credit for that, Pappy.  It's down to people like you, Eddie, Pat, Jawge and everyone who takes the time and effort not just to post pic's of their work up here, but also to answer the many many questions, time and again from all the newcomers (no matter their age) who find places like Primitive Archer in search of that "something" they feel calling in the back of their mind.  Without the "Older Generation" for advice, inspiration and information, we younglings would be swinging in the breeze trying to figure things out without knowing what to look for ;)

Whitefeather - that's a beautiful bow!!  Gary's blanks are top notch material and you certainly did that one proud!!  Be sure to send Gary a few pic's of it, I'm sure he'd love to see them.
