Terry, did you mean June 2021???? June 2020 is only 8 months away.

Bisch

[Terry Green]

Yes Sir...I was in too big a hurry...
I'll fix it.

What 2 weeks you want?

[Bisch]

Anything in Oct, Nov, Dec. Deer and pigs.

Bisch

I've been on John's site before, looks like some great sticks! 

[smokin joe]

That bow is beautiful.

[Terry Green]

OK Bisch....you can be 1st...November 1 to 12th is yours....allowing 3 days for shipping  if that suits you as that's the itinerary we've been using for years.

[Alexander Traditional]

I would like to try it out in August.

Hogs and jack rabbits.

[Bisch]

That'll work fine, Terry!!

Thanks!

Actually, in years past, we have had the bow for a month, but I can see where the 2 week thing is good because it gets the bow into more hands during the passaround time.

Bisch

[Bisch]

Terry, are you going to start a sticky thread at the top of the powwow for us to record our adventures with the bow, or do we just keep using this thread???

Bisch

[South MS Bowhunter]

Terry,

Sir can you clarify now before the pass a round starts if each person should sign the bow after use?

In the pass I asked this question and got a mixed reply.

[SlowBowKing]

I'd like to give it a try in December, the later in the month the better! I'll be hunting whitetails.

[Terry Green]

Bisch....You are correct....

In the beginning it was every 2 weeks but that seem to cause issues so we did go to a month..... I'll edit the original post as such..... Thanks

[Terry Green]

And yes .....Once the bow gets moving I'll start a thread and sticky it to the top you bet!!!

[SAM E. STEPHENS]

I'll stay off the list cause I have one of his one-piece classics with carbon front and back. And will shortly have an Apollo T/D carbon to add to my arsenal of arrow flingers ( had the Classic back in Tx. for 2 days and made a kill with it )...

John is a great guy and it surprises me not he is doing this for the kids....

Class act all the way , Thank you sir...

,,,Sam,,,

[DWT]

Im a recurve guy but i own 2 of Johns apollo longbows, they are top notch in every way.

[durp]

how about september...elk, deer, bear, wolves and grouse

[mangonboat]

I always signed up for Faith in years past because I shoot both ways and that way more folks could shoot Hope . I was blessed to own the 2009-2010 Faith Dryad Orion. WOW.  I'd love a shot at carrying Hope in  October or December 2020 for deer and coyote, April 2021 for turkey and coyote, or January 2021 for bunnies and coyote.
