True, but theres some 600 pound bears here too... and those ones might be at 500 by now :P although the chances of running into one of those is pretty small.... On the other hand, I tend to have bad luck.

Build a bow and bag the bear ;D I talked to a guy in Northern Ontario in the 80's that bought two hickory replacement handles for implements and spliced together to make a fine bow. Go to the lumber yard and try an oak board etc.Good luck on your journey

One strategy would be to get a board or two on Ebay of wood that is good bow wood (hickory, ash, hard maple, elm, white oak) and do a fabric backed bow.  Silk.

Hmm, that might be a good idea. So, just type say, hickory board or red oak board in Ebay and it should comme up. hopefully I'll get something useable.
