English Warbow Forum is Back!
Glennan:
Those of you who were saddened at its demise, now rejoice! The English Warbow forum is back online.
Sorry Glennan. Had to take the link out. I tried to modify it so it wouldn't come up as a link but really all they need is englishwarbow and the appropriate tags.
P.S. Pity there is so much rigidity in mind that this site could not be used.
Badger:
Hopefully many of you war bow enthusuasts will continue to post here, I enjoy reading and viewing the posts as i suspect others do also. Steve

I'd be very surprised if some people didn't continue posting here. You can't really argue against the right or desire of a given community to have a forum of their own but its actually very important to have more than one forum. As I've mentioned before, the entire community of archers interested in using replica english warbows (however you define that particular object) is very small and the risk of having just one forum is that it becomes dominated mostly by the enthusiasms of the participants and not much else. Personally, I've been impressed with the PA forum for the following reasons.
1) It provided a forum when t'other one disappeared
2)Its backed up by a commercial enterprise which while it has some disadvantages, also has considerable advantages
3) The spirit of debate is healthy.
4) It's important to embrace the international and interested community
I continue to follow the forum with interest and will continue to post.
Chris

i agree, its sad that helpful site links were met with such veracious hostility. :-\
and the whole thing was run like a money making business. :(
the English warbow is as much fascinating to shoot as it is to build, which I'm afraid was lost here :(
Justin Snyder:
Hostility????
I sure will be sorry if some of the guys don't come back and continue to post. A lot of knowledge could be shared both ways. The basic design and culture of our bows might be different at times, but the working forces and principals are the same. Justin
