Thanks everyone for the ideas, and yep, I was thinking of many other items to carve with some of these less bow worthy candidates as well. Darksoul, thanks for your earnest reply, and while I can say that I was being a jokester in my last post, and meant no harm, I still apologize for dirtying up the forum with insults. One thing I love about PA is that it tends to lack trolls unlike other sites. That said, I am not sure why you are compelled to not only open the thread that is on a subject you have read a thousand times before, let alone comment on such threads, but what baffles me most is why it would upset you? I personally have talked about yew bows for hundreds of hours and I am just scratching the surface! There could be new threads everyday that I know I would learn from, even when it is on a subject I have already read about before. Now, why come with an entitled sense of instruction for anyone, just sit back, relax, and talk bows!
