NC_Warbow:
Hello all, Ive been a 'lurker' for awhile, time to come out of hiding! Im very excited to see whats developing here! I would be quite interested in helping and joining the AWBS. Im from Charlotte, North Carolina; anyone else around my area?
I have an 80in 110# hickory backed yew warbow. I have yet to try making my own bow.. YET.. I am slowly gathering tools :p I do make my own arrows though. Will be starting on a new batch of 1/2 Poplar shafts, tapered to 3/8 with some perdy Hector Cole heads ;D Just need to wait until afew things arrive.. its like christmas o.o Anyone else happen to be in the SCA? I also joined the facebook group earlier :)
fishfinder401:
welcome ;D, its great to have someone else join us, do you have skype by chance? we have meetings on there every few weeks
NC_Warbow:
Thank you! Ive always found the site VERY helpful, hoping I can help out with the start of the AWBS! I will have to make a skype account for theses meetings. Always helpful to beable to talk in 'person' rather than through posts, much quicker too! spent most of my sunday trying to find a single field I could do some distance shooting in.. not one! hahaha, thinking I may try to use a Golf range :P
fishfinder401:
when you get a skype made, please post it, or if you don't want it out in the open, pm me and i can spread it within the awbs,
Ironmonger:
Ok... getting closer to finished with Warbow Take 2... and it DID NOT BLOW UP!!! OMG!!!
I'm taking the "shooting in" on this bow much more slowly than Take 1 and have been taking the extra time to exercise it more and treat it with love and respect. Initial checks show, what to my eye, is a good compass tiller and its drawing 90# at 26" but I stopped pulling there due to my paranoia after that boo hic blew up in my face last time! lol We'll git er done though.
Posted a pic on my facebook of the groups and will get some other pics up as soon as I have some more time.
