Well, I'm posting this for my son Caedmon, he just turned five. I'll give a bit of back story. About two months ago my wife had to go visit her sister for a few days and took our four month old with her and I kept our oldest two with me at home. We were shopping one day and I saw in the bargain bin at Walmart, Robin Hood with Errol Flynn. It was $5 so I bought it and we went home and made some popcorn and watched. Caedmon was in awe of the bows on the movie and said "Daddy, I know what I want to be for Halloween." So the Robin Hood adventure began.
This is what Caedmon wanted me to tell you guys in his own words;
"Hi guys. I want to show you my new English Longbow. I made most of it. Daddy helped me on some of it. I want to be Robin Hood for Halloween so I had to make a bow. I really like all your bows and the magazine and maybe you could show me more of them. My daddy makes bows too. I had to do a lot of tilling and lots and lots and alot of sanding. It has horn knocks and deer leather on the handle, and a skunk (Strunk) wrap. I wanted it to look like the bow on the bow book. I love all you guys. Love Caedmon"
Those are his words, and he did do most of the work. All I did was the bandsaw work and the horn knocks and handle. He did all the tillering and sanding, and I might add I am mighty proud!
