Cool beans.

Is Mitch the only one left or is John still waiting?

John?

I think the three were Joe, Mitch, and Beyaz. Joe got his yew a few pages back (you posted the pic for him Roy). The bow to Beyaz has been delivered, we still need to hear from him that it was delivered to the correct person. Which just leaves Mitch who knew it would be a little while.

Technically Kelly is still riding herd on the 2017 swap, so I'm sure he'll correct me when he gets a chance if I'm missing something.

Page 26. You posted this.

So back in October, there were 4 people on Kelly's list still waiting to receive:
Ink
John Scifres
mwosborn
talkingcabbage

Or did I miss John getting one?

I'm amazed to read this!
Good guys that stepped up to fill in for the #$%^@#*&^'s that took a free bow and ran.
If they aren't dead or darn near it there isn't an excuse at this point.
Even if they aren't dead..they could have at least sent their new bow as a replacement.

Shame on em!

Wow, you're going even farther back than when Kelly said he was down to three. I don't think you missed it, but it did kind of go away. My understanding from Kelly is that John worked something out with his bowyer directly and things were good as far as the swap goes.

hi guys...

i was sick for couple days and could not able to access post office.
the day before yesterday, i got this beauty on the way to my office.

well, i could not resist myself to unpack it and try. well i got "the look" from boss but worth it  :D

thanks to all...

I'm happy for you, Ink.

Did ya shoot a hole in the ceiling? LOL

Glad it made it. Hope it works well for you. That is definitely one of the better full draw pics that have been posted.

She looks nice - looks like it was worth the wait!!  Is that a broadhead on the tip?  Pass through on the ceiling tile!    

Glued up the zebra wood for the riser...




Got the riser block squared up...

And Kenny sent me these wonderful looking walnut veneers!




Roy, I won't say exactly what Kenny said about using the veneers in your bow...but I am going to use them anyway.      

Thanks again Kenny!

Nice Mitch.

Ya I never pay any attention to what that ole coot says..  

LOL

Mitch, I enter every give away he puts up. And I hain't never won nuffen. I'm thinken he doesn't even put my name in dah hat..

But ifin I ever did win something off the old fart, it would prolly be ah pair of gwass lams.

     

That's funny!  Unusual that my name was drawn - I usually am the last one drawn in the give away when everyone is a winner.    

If you won some glass you would just have to build a glass bow is all.     :eek:

make one for yourself and you will not regret...

Mitch, got the sides cleaned up, facets on back and belly, riser shaped, string grooves filed in, tips laid out ready to shape. That only took 8 beers, fuggered I better back away then..  





Even had some good Colorado beer. Beerito beer, dark beer . Wasn't bad either...

Yay! - she is looking good!  Looking forward to to flinging some arrows with that one.

Only 8 beers - slow bow building night?    

Ya, LOL..

Everything ready to go for glue up Roy.




Dry run looked good...now for the slick sticky mess - might try and get it done this afternoon.
