Hello everyone. Been a long time.

Hello everyone. Not sure if anyone I knew is still around. I looked and it said I registered in 2003...honestly it doesn't seem that long ago. But it wouldn't have surprised me if it was pre 2000 or whenever the forum started. Seemed like I was on pretty early. Made several Cloverdale events.

I've not made and bows or shot Trad for a while. But was talking to a buddy of mine and decided to check in on the forum. Not sure how busy it is anymore here. I've recently moved and was thinking I may be able to get a shop together at the new place. Think I may have to get some of those staves out I have been saving all these years.

Hope everyone is doing ok. Not sure anyone remembers me. I'm terrible at that myself. Eventually I remember though.

Anyway just checking in...going to get re-acquainted with the forum.

I registered in April of '03, just before you. Sorry, I don't remember your name. Not uncommon for an almost 70 year old I guess but welcome back anyway. A lot has happened since you left, some has just stayed the same.
If you will be working on a few staves, please post on "Bowyers Bench". There are still a few of us selfbow and all wood bows guys around and going strong. We love pics so don't be shy. Lets make some shavings!
