Another poor soul lost to the madness of bow making. Commiserations.
I used to look at trees for their majestic beauty, now all i see is bows.

Pappy aren't you good buddies with Jimmy Blackmon?  I pretty much learned to shoot by watching his videos.  I recall seeing your name in one of his posts somewhere along the way.

Welcome to bowaholics anonymous!!!!!  ;D

Wouldn't "Bowaholics Anonymous" indicate that some or any are actually trying to recover? Any anyway I could quit anytime I want.  >:D

Great looking bows echatham. Wish any of my first three looked half as good as those, lol.

Thanks, yeah i suspect many of you all's first bows may have been before there was so much help available on forums like this.  I am kindof standing on the shoulders of giants here, and skipped over much of the trial and error that many have.   I have no doubt that those bows wouldn't have came out so good without so much help from the pros. :)

Glad to see you over here echatham> You should fit right in. Nice bows! I've seen a few of them over yonder but was glad to see you post some of the additional pics here.
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.
