2nd annual laminated bow challenge at the Tenn.Classic
« on: March 30, 2017, 09:46:13 pm »
I hope everyone is ready for the 2nd annual Tenn.Classic laminated bow challenge,last year we had a very good turnout of participants,and everyone successfully finished a bow from one of the blanks that I had at the Classic. this year  will be just as much fun,also this year I will be offering a bamboo backed 50s style recurve,along with the bamboo backed r/d longbow blanks.
the blanks : bamboo backed osage, bamboo backed ipe, these blanks will have various  riser wood and underlays from many different species,so each one will be different, they will also have various dye colors and patterns,( if anybody wants one natural please let me know soon)
all bow blanks will be 140.00 each,includes tip overlay materials of different kinds and string material,Eddie Parker will be making every ones string for them  :o ::) ha ha
there will be also a 1st,2nd and 3rd place prize for those who choose to compete in the laminated  challenge.
this year their will be a prize for the worst score too,,probably sulfridge
I will be getting some pics of the blanks post in the next day or two,,,,,james

Well now. Would you look at that. Somebody questioning my shooting ability. Coming from a guy that got chased out of the knapping pit with a fake turd.  ;D

Hey fellas, here are some of the reflex deflex longbow blanks.  some will be bamboo-backed osage, some will be bamboo-backed ipe.  I will have various colors and dye-jobs.  I will also back natural bamboo backings too.  this year I will have bamboo backed recurve bow blanks, 50's style.
