Found out about community from a web video on making your own bow. Found the video from a google search.

Not sure when PA magazine started but I remember first hearing about it from a guy at arrowhead archery in Green Bay WI. He sold me my first and only store bought longbow. A used timberline safari. He showed me how to shoot it and told me about instinctive shooting. After talking about doing stuff the old way for a while he mentioned that if I wanted to learn more there was a great new magazine called Primitive archer. Im pretty sure that was a bit more than 11 years ago. I stumbled onto the website much later. I was building a BBI and saw that one had won bow of the month. I went online and found the message board through that. I sent in requests to become a member for over a month with no reply and then I was about to give up on it when I got in. Still not sure what that was all about ??? :)

Picked up the my first magazines from the newstand. Finally subscribed three or four years ago. Bow of the month piqued my interest so I started viewing this site daily last January. Great mag and great site. Trying to build bows a couple years and enjoy reading others experiences. If was more computer literate I would try to post with pictures as I could use some specific advise. I have all four volumes of Bowyers Bible, Hunting the Osage Bow, and Cherokee Bows but still struggle. Biggest problem is I have never had my hands on a self-bow nor do I personally know anyone who uses or builds. Started hunting in 1957 and bow hunting in 1965 but "primitive is all new" can you believe that. I was old enough to know better.
