Deer season is slowing down for the 7th year  ;) ;D ;D so let's bring this back to the top. ;) ;D ;D ;D Should be some well seasoned staves floating around out there somewhere. :)

Mark, might be dry rotted staves by now ::)

A bow circle is a great idea!  Shipping might get expensive, though.  How many times will we be passing the bows along?
Patrick, by the time you get to shipping them to the next person you'll have plenty of money,, you'll have paid for the kids college, retired, planned and paid for your funeral and at least a couple of trips around the world for you and the Missus.

With the seasoning those stave have we should be able to see the change in color from each step.  :o :o ;D

 ;) ;D ;D ;D I suspect most have gone by the way side,either lost or mixed up with other stuff,not even sure who was in it that is still active. :) Seems to me their was someone in OK. that dropped of of sight and sort of got things off track. Who knows ,just fun to bring it back up from time to time. :) :) The last one I remember having was Pat's white oak board bow that I put a Hickory back on because of low weight,it should be well seasoned now and may weigh 80 lbs. I sent it out to someone,been to long and don't remember who.  ;) ;D ;D

I'm with you guys it has actually been fun having this pop back into reality from time to time. Makes for more suspense and more of a surprise in the end when we can't even remember what stave we sent out,LOL :o

Sound good Brian I'll keep my eyes open and try not to sit on the next one for three years   :o ;D

How do you jump in on this or get a new stave going?

Barry, if you look at the first page you will see we started this back in '06 and the bows still aren't done. Maybe you should wait until after the first of the year and get in the Bow Trade then.  ;D

Haha I took a look back at that Pat. I usually get in the bow trade but I think this would be interesting to do. I'd like to see how the Frankenbows would turn out taking in parts and utilizing skills from different guys and see how they mesh. I was thinking of starting up a new bow circle post in the bow section to see if some of us showing interest recently can get one going.
