My first attempt at building a bow!! (Build-a-long)
knightc71:
I'm the same way that your wife is, except I will clean my own kill!! That's the way I was brought up. If you kill it, you clean it!!!
knightc71:
I just wanted to let ya'll know that I will be posting pics tomorrow. I got it roughed out today and it got too late to take pics so it has to wait until tomorrow!!
Badger:
I can't even get my girlfriend to sit outside while I build the bows! You have a good teacher. You should do fine. I will follow this thread with some interest as we have discussed the absence of women in bow making. Most of us think it is in the mans genes to get hooked on this. Steve
DanaM:
Geez where's the pictures Cora ;)
Looking forward to seeing your progress :)

I finally got the pics downloaded!!! ;D I finally got it roughed out to 62" overall length. It is a straight taper from 1 1/2" at the fade to 5/8" at the tips. My next decision will be how I want my handle to be. But first, I will do some tillering on it. We'll just have to see how well that goes!! I'm not a very patient person, but I will have to learn to be one, I guess.
