the end is near

I have met so many good friends on this forum.  I am thankful for all the people that it has brought into my life.

This is very sad news. I really want to thank so many people I have met here. It’s been a pleasure. I will miss them dearly.

This site ultimately led me to intense hunting memories.
I am speechless, logging in tonight, wondering, only to find this is it.

God Bless all of you.

I’ve been lurking a bit on Facebook and such. It will be real hard to replace this site and the way it has operated with all the great folks. You can find Selfbowman on the leatherwall for now.

Go to paleoplanet.net

Thanks for all the help to everyone on here over the last few years. Love this site and the people on here..

Devastated.  Everything I know about building bows was taught me by the folk on this forum.  Anyone interested can reach me at avenue.woodcarving@yahoo.co.uk or at my blog at Avenue woodcarving

I’m sorry to hear this.  I have learned so much from the members of this site over the years. Pat B, you and many others were so important in helping me improve. It has really helped improve my bow building by asking questions and reading about other bowyers work. I have made numerous friends here. Sorry to see it go.

Very sad news. I'm especially gonna miss "Life is Good".

Wondering if bookmarking threads would save them just to read back through? Not that tech-smart and it seems a shame to let all the old info and entertainment just vanish.


Anyway, thanks to everyone here for sharing all the knowledge over the years. I wasn't a big poster, but I certainly read and learned tons here over the years. Thank you all again!

Thank You to all here that have been so very helpful to me. I've only been here for a short while but you guys have been very helpful in shortening the learning curve.
Thanks again, this site will be missed.

I started my bow building journey only a few years ago and this site and the great members have helped me more than I can say, so I thank you all for that.  I would love to keep this going, are there any other forums that folks are on that could provide a transition?  Sleek mentioned paleoplanet, but it only works if everyone is on board.  Just wondering, I for one, don't want to see this end

There is also tradgang paleo planet and stick bow/leatherwall for those wanting a space similar to this site.  You will see some familiar names op up on these forums from here. 

[Pat B]

If anyone is truly interested in taking the PA forum over please contact me or Marie. We have the contact info for it.
Only serious prospects please.

This is sad.  If you decide to switch to the Leatherwall, a lot of us are there.  PLEASE remember that your posted pictures can't be any larger than 640 on the largest side...Phil spends way too much time editing because of oversized pictures.  The Paleo site is another good option might be Archerytalk.
