friendship bow circle
jamie:
would you prefer stones or steel. lol, im game
Justin Snyder:
I had another suggestion to build our own then send it around to hunt. At the end of the season we would draw to see who gets which bow. I realize some guys are nervous to mess something up. I am probably less of a bowyer than most of the guys on here. The fun of this project for me is that my friends here on PA each contributed to build the bow. Like Pat said over on the community bow post, you can do something as little as handle wrap or tip overlays or include a couple of arrows. Most guys are capable of building the bow so don't be scared.
As for breaking bows, I agree with Pat, If one gets broke we can start another. I am more likely to break my bow while hunting, so don't worry. Also guys, I don't own this idea so if you have any ideas or suggestion PLEASE tell us what you think. Thanks Justin
mullet:
I like it.Great Idea Justin,I'm in.My only suggestion is the owner of the stave include a weight and draw length to shoot for.That would also help if we draw to hunt with it.That way nobody would overdraw it.And Jamie,Maybe a circle of people that want only to use stone tools?Eddie
jamie:
Eddie that would be me and thimos. lol by the way shoot me an email with your address
Coo-wah-chobee:
