Title: Yew 5 curve
Post by: Oglala Bowyer on January 31, 2025, 04:48:45 pm
Greetings everyone.  Its been a long time since I've lurked here on PA and am wondering if you fine gentleman can help me locate a thread started by Wizard Goat many moons ago.  The bow in question is the 5 curve yew bow.  Recently, i've come across a beauty of a stave which has been wittled down to workable dimensions but I've not had a whole of experience with Yew.  But I do remember is that it was a dandy of a bow Ryan made and would like to see it for inspiration.  Thanks in advance and its good to be back

Yeah man, I was lurking in the shadows and saw that the site was down. I’m sure happy it’s up and running now. Happy to see everyone

Mark, I'm fairly certain thats it but for the life of me the photos are not showing up and I cannot see to be sure.  Is there a way where they can be reposted in order for me to see?  Weird, most other bows i'm able to see except these ones.  Odd

Hey there, shoot me an email and I can send you some pics, or answer any questions here. I haven’t spent the time to re learn how to post pics on here! I built a handful of those bows, but I assume you maybe mean the copper head one. stormcrowarchery@gmail.com

Really hoping the new site is going to bring back some bowyers like you Wizardgoat. I really miss seeing your work and you always had some great pictures too.

Really hoping it will be easier posting pictures to

Pictures aren't showing up for me, either. Typically that means they have been deleted from wherever they were being hosted.

I don't get all the angst about posting pics, just use a third party site to host your pics and link to them there. I use Imgur, but there are numerous other options as well.
