Hello from San Antonio

(1/2) > >>

Treelimb:
Hi, my name is Jack and I’m from San Antonio.  I’ve been shooting a 45# White Wolf longbow since Christmas.  I started out shooting a compound in ’97. 

I can’t tell you what sparked my interest in traditional, but it was an itch I couldn’t get rid of for the last 5 years.  In the summer of ’10, I went to an archery shoot in Austin.  Two “strangers”, Mike and Kenny, let me walk with them as they shot.  They were more than willing to show me the ropes.  By the end of the day, I was hooked.  Thanks guys for being enablers! 

This year I built two board bows (Poor Folks).  The first at 30 lbs, by accident and the second 40 lbs on purpose.  I’m ready to start on the third!  If anyone in the SA area wants to do a build along at the same time, send me an email.  I’m also looking for someone to shoot with.  I can’t commit to an archery club because of my family and the job, but still want to get out more. 

Why Treelimb?  I'm the guy that always finds that underwater tree while fishing or invisible branch out in the woods.  Looking forward being part of the forum. Jack

 Welcome to the Forum. I was in San Antonio last year for a day looking for rock. You won't have any trouble finding help on this site when you are ready to take bow building up another notch.

Parnell:
Welcome to PA!  Lots of nice people on here.  Enjoy the site!

gstoneberg:
Welcome Jack!  If you ever get up Dallas way give me a shout and I'll send you home with some osage.

We got a nice rain last night, a little over an inch...thank God.  Did it make it down your way?

George

Treelimb:
George,  I might have to take you up on that!  I've got family all around the Dallas area. 

Rain, boy did we ever get the rain.  The official total was around 2.7 inches in 3 days.  You call that a gulley washer!  No one complained about the rain spoiling their weekend! 

Have a good one, Jack
