Any bow builders in or around OK City?
« on: July 01, 2016, 06:54:54 pm »
We've got a young fella in the bow trade that lives in Oklahoma City working on his first stave bow. Anyone close enough that could maybe give a hands on look at what he's working on? May be a shot in the dark but I'd appreciate you shooting me a PM if you can.

I found many years ago that it is much easier and more rewarding working with those that don't know anything than those that know it all.

I'm thinking he needs hands on. Too many differing opinions on line only seem to confuse the situation.

Wonder if anyone is going through there on the way to MOJAM.

Likely members of Oklahoma Selfbow Society are in OKC area. They have a fb page.
https://www.facebook.com/Oklahoma-Selfbow-Society-285908583224/
Become member of that fb group and make contacts there?
Good luck!
