I'll be coming in Monday and I'm definitely making another bow this year. I haven't decided but I know I'll do a Hickory but one of these would be amazing too.

How much are the blanks on average? (I know that's a difficult question, but I need to budget accordingly)

Thanks!

James what are the prices, I may be able to do it early, but I am going to be helping out after people start arriving. But I'd like to do it.
I call a lot of people brother, but only count a few as family.

Who made those?
Lakeland, Florida
 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Not yet knoll.  Matt Wirwicki finished his bow up and it looks great.  I'm going to start on mine today. 
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

I'd like to try one as well.  Preferably 50-60 lbs natural finish.

thanks to all the participants, that were in the laminated bow challenge,, it was  a huge  amount of fun for all,,, there were some awesome bows finished from the blanks that I brought,,, good thing we weren't having a bow beauty contest,, because all finished bows would have came in first place.  I will post pics and scores later tonight.  Thanks to all.  James Parker

Thanks for all your help James.  And thanks for the laugh at the band saw when I told you I was left handed.
