Title: bowyers in new zealand
Post by: fujimo on November 13, 2011, 03:02:00 AM
does anybody know of any bowyers( glass and/or stick bows) in N.Z.
i have just helped a friend from nz finish his second bow- and he would like to meet up with any other bowyers back home, both for guidance, and meeting like minded folk!
thanks

Jeff's computer is kaput and they are currently saving for a new Apple - however, he hits the local library rental puter every so often to check in. You could send him a PM, though it may take him a while to answer. He shoots at a club he belongs to, I know.

thats a good start thanks guys- my mate is a shepherd, up in the hill country- so he doesnt have too many contacts- but i am sure he will make his own way- he is quite resourceful- just trying to get him a jump start

anybody got any leads on good bow wood from the islands.
