Just for reference, Eric, onebowonder, offered early on in the trade to have something started and would be willing to step in at the last minute to be sure that EVERONE in the trade got a bow.  Now, he was not the only one to do that.  I can't think of a worse set of circumstances to have to make a bow under. No pressure there, huh?

You'd be surprised...no, no you wouldn't, this is P.A....how many people made that offer. But Eric is the one that got tapped in because he was first in line. 

It's easy to focus on the few things that go wrong, but think about this, folks...THE NUMBER OF BOWYERS WILLING TO STEP IN AT THE LAST MINUTE FAR OUTNUMBERED THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THEM TO DO SO!  What does that say?

There is an awesome spirit of generosity here JW. And also great patience and tolerance of each other; we are all learning more than just how to make a bow here.

Best bunch of folks I never met!

One thing Jordan and I have not asked is to hear from those that have not received.  So...if you have not received a bow AND you have not heard from your builder, drop me a p.m.

All is good with me besides being late......I am finishing up the tillering process and shooting the bow some.  Still have to finish it.  I go back to work Friday will work on the bow some tomorrow then get back on it Monday.  Not sure yet of a ship date but it is coming.
Happy hunting to all!

Mark me down as received.  I got a beautiful shgbark hickory pyramid 63" 47# @28" from Russ Lusthaus this thing is absolutely gorgeous.  I will get some pictures up by this weekend.  I couldn't be happier thanks so much.

well I have done Steve (Turtle) somewhat of a disservice by not posting a pic of the bow he sent me yet...  I had been waiting to shoot the bow until I had gotten the one I was working on done... ( a little incentive on my part I guess LOL)   Anyway... I went and shot the heck out of it last night and it is a SHOOTER... he sent me a beautiful 64" osage dressed up with some praire rattler skins and antler tips .. And wouldn't ya know it ... Its about that time of the year to put it to work  ...   Anyway...here is a couple pics ... Thanks again steve  :)
