I am going to renew my request that  PA members who have not done so, go to their Stats page and fill in "at least" their state if not town and state. Saves others from asking where you are located and it actually saves time. Marc, maybe you could post this, again  ;)  on some of the other threads. Thanks.  ;D

Do you guys know if there are any bowyers on here from Ky?  Or is there a way to search?     ???  Daivd

It really does save us time who are trying to help people, but have to stop and try and figure out where the heck your from. It delays answers and sometimes you get no answer because the answer would be too long without a location. Some folks ask about wood and there may be 5 species of that wood in 4 states. Helps directing the answer. If some of you have trouble with doing that, thats OK, just let us know or use a privet email.

Here is the process.  At the top of ANY of the forum pages there is a search box.  Right below is a series of boxes, HOME, HELP, SEARCH, PROFILE, CALENDAR, AND LOGOUT.  Click on profile.  The next screen has options down the left side of the screen.  Under "MODIFY PROFILE" click on "Forum Profile Information" Go to location and fill in the blank.  If you really want to get fancy, you can type in your name and location in the signature line too. Now at the bottom of the page click "Change Profile".  Now it will show your location every time you post, or ask a question.  Justin

Agreed, and done. Thought I had already done it, and wondered why it never showed up - guess I hadn't - DUH!  ;D (Sorry I didn't get to make it to Hickory, Dick.)

I love it when I can redily see where folks are from (at least a State or Country), especially for my Full Draw pic pages.

For any of you guys that are uncomfortable with giving your location maybe your state or even area of the US or the world would help. I know that the younger generation is constantly warned about giving out info over the internet so we want your input on our forum but we don't want to make anyone uncomfortable.    We are all here to learn what we can about primitive archery and show off our stuff to others that feel the same.  ;D     Pat
