Let me know if you have shipped or if there is problems

Thanks Kris July 4th
--------------------------------------------------
Okay here we go.

The way we'll do this to insure everybody get's a bow they can shoot is assign a number to each entry. If you want in post here and at the end of two weeks from today I will draw names and PM or email to the builder who your bow is going to and the specs desired.

#1 When you post that you are in also post your draw length and desired draw weight in a 5 or 10 pound range. (example.. 45-50 or 40-50) Also state whether you will be building a glass or wood bow for the trade.
ADDED (state right or left handed)

#2 When you post pics during the build DO NOT state in any fashion whom your bow is going to.

#3 I have given this alot of thought and to keep it as honest as possible no one who has signed up to TradGang after the date of this post can enter. I hate to exclude anyone but have heard of it here in past trades that one guy or another did not get a return on his trade and DO NOT want that to happen.  

#4 The time frame for the build will be 5 months and the bow you built should if anyway possible be shot in. We will ship out the bows the week after July 4th.

#5 There was a few concerns about liabilty so I will throw in that any one who receives a bow in this trade is doing so at his/her own risk and in no way holds any one resposbible in any way should a misfortune occur due to use of such bow.

There we have it. I tried to keep it as simple as possible and keep everybody happy. So let the building and swapping commence.

Have fun! Kris

Almost forgot,
Bow must be signed and dated  

I'm in,LEFTHANDED- 28" draw, anything over 50# up to 100#!!
I will be building a hickory bow, but it is lefthanded as I just started it for myself

Yeah Highlandwarrior I never thought about righty's or lefties, to excited I guess. LOL

I won't know who your bow is going to until the names are drawn so I don't if it needs to be left or right. I assume it would be pretty easy to put a rest on the other side of about any wood bow like the one you are gonna do.

I guess everybody needs to put left or right with their other info.

And as far as me organizing this, no problem. But it was definetly not all me. I don't think it would come together as good as it is without all the input and advice from the Gang.
So how about a big THANKS GANG!

I'm  in for sure. I shoot 55-70@26 right off the knuckle or righthanded. I will be building an osage selfbow or a rawhide    backed osage. This is gonna be fun.

I am in,
I am right handed and shoot between 50# and 60# @28".
I will build a Bamboo backed bow for the swap.
Am really looking forward to doing this.
Thanks all.
Bert.  

That would be fine except I put a riser block on it and cut the shelf already! Thats as far as I got before I stopped though, so I basically still have to make the bow.

Highland I'm sure a few lefties will be along.
If not your probably like me and need all the excuses you can get to start another bow LOL.
It'll work out bud.
