Blood Trail:
Well, actually I'm from North Carolina but haven't lived there in about 12 years. I moved to Fort Worth after spending 10 years in the Marines (Ooh rah!) where I work for Lockheed Martin (JSF F-35 and F-16 fighter programs).  I've only been bow hunting since '06 and shooting trad for a little over a year now. I've been chewing at the bit to build my on bow. I got an Osage board and some red oak at the house that I have no clue what to do with it! LOL! This site was recommended to me from those boys over at Texasbowhunter.com. I have so much respect for y'all bowyers and I can't wait to pick yall's brain! Thanks for having me! :laugh:

Woohoo, another Texan on the forum.  I'm in St Paul, Texas a suburb northeast of Dallas just a bit.  Get in your truck and drive over to my shop and we'll whip you up a bow in no time.  I don't do red oak, but if you come over I'm sure there's an osage stave in the shop you can play with or we can work on your board.  I just put up a thread looking for folks in this area to go cut osage with me if you're interested.  http://www.primitivearcher.com/smf/index.php/topic,29866.0.html  Also, I try to host a couple combination flint knapping/bow making/hog hunting outings at the deer lease a couple hours west of you near Cross Plains.  Here's  one of those posts: http://www.primitivearcher.com/smf/index.php/topic,25825.0.html  You're welcome to join us.  I try to schedule them when the weather is perfect in the spring...probably sometime Mar-May.

Welcome, and I'm serious about helping you build a bow.  I've helped 3 guys make bows since moving to Dallas in 2007 and there are 3 more in progress, albeit very slowly.  People are sooooooo busy these days.  I will provide a stave if you come.
