[longbowhntr]

OK.... guys and gals

Ya'll talked me into it again this year. Just kidding like has already been stated to much fun to miss out on!

I'll be making an osage selfbow for my swap bow.

I draw 26inches.. 45-55lbs.. right handed and I'll shoot wood/glass/or whatever someone wants to send my way.

Just one request "BOSWELL" and I don't draw each other. I think he will be signing up soon also.

Thanks for doing this David

Kelly looks like we're gonna have a bit of a turnout.

I can't remember what the # was last year but I think it was over 80.

[Roy from Pa]

Think it was 84 or 85?

[snakebit40]

I plan on making some bows this year so I can join in the fun next year. Have fun, I know I'll have fun watching it again!    

[KellyG]

Well Stiks we shall see, it was 85 sign up last year.

There are still a lot who was in it last year who did have not signed up this year.

We have 59 so far.

Might be fun...I'll be making a selfbow. My draw is 26" and can handle draw weight of 50-55# comfortable.  Any type of bow would fit me fine.

[Jake Fr]

[inksoup]

although i really would like to join this event, i decided not to, since the distance gap between the countries.
but i will be watching carefully.

enjoy the built.

maybe some other time.

[KellyG]

Well ink good luck to you. There are is one other in so far that is not from this side of the pond. Swiss bow has been in since the first swap I think. Johan has not signed up yet this year, but he did last year and he is in Africa. So don't let the distance be an issue.

Where are all of you from last year anyway? What are yall waiting on.

[Roy from Pa]

Prolly making sure Hova doesn't sign up again:)

 

[Stiks-n-Strings]

That's why we recruited you to be on the committee Roy. All that talkin' bout the whoopin's you are gonna hand out I figured you where the go to guy to be the muscle in the clan      

Or maybe we just needed a wise old man to give us direction  

[Roy from Pa]

Stiks, my GPS battery died a long time ago:) lol

[JGL]

I have been watching the swap for two years now and have been seriously impressed. My experance is limited to board bows red oak and hickory right now but I would love to join. I'm right handed and would like 45-55 lb @ 26.I would like a glass bow but will be happy with anytype.

[evildocrsx]

I'm in.  I will be building a wooden bow.  I shoot right handed.  Draw length is 28" anything around 55-60#.

[inksoup]

gentlemen

Andy and kellyG has pursuaded me to join this event. so i am in.
thanks for mails and kind replies.

i will be building long board bow. probably mulberry or oak.
i am right handed and using 50-55lbs @28", take down would be nice to carry it everywhere if not no worries.

best.

[Roy from Pa]

That's great inksoup, welcome to the swap.

[Stiks-n-Strings]

Glad to see you get in Ink, I have looked for shipping info to Turkey with out much luck.  Surely it won't be to bad.

I do recommend any one that draws an out of country recipient to check shipping on the addy before you build. Osage tree got quite a surprise when shipping to Africa and it was over 300.00 to ship a 1 piece and around 60.00 to ship a 2 piece.

 

If any one can't ship outside of the states be sure to let me or Kelly know so we can it on the sheet.

If we have any volunteers who want to ship outside the states let us know that also.
