Elm Hall elm bow build off interest?

<< < (11/13) > >>

blackhawk:
Lots of nice elm was cut this weekend. Im hoping to see at least a dozen bows on the raffle table next year guys. My bark peeled like a banana,but a few others didnt...sorry to those whose didnt peel off...that stinks...or maybe yins whose didnt peel need to learn how to choose a better candidate...lol  :laugh:

Pappy:
Mine got home to TN, I will see what I can do with it in a few weeks, thanks Matt for taking up my slack. ;) :)

Badly Bent:
Got lucky and picked an easy to peel one myself, should be two bows in it if I do my part. A big thank you to the club for allowing us to cut timber there. I've never seen so many elm trees to pick from in one location before. A lot of excitement generated when you turn a bunch of bowyers loose to cut wood. :)

paulsemp:
I want to thank the club also for letting us cut. Blackhawk and I shared a tree and I grabbed an inch and a quarter sapling shoot off the top of it. I'd like to show up with 1 adult and 1 kids bow out of what I got for the raffle table

MWirwicki:
Got my Elm staves, also.  Liked to kick my butt, hauling them outta the woods.  It's a cool thing though, cutting your own bow wood.  Adds an element of Mojo to the bow.  Looking forward to seeing what turns out of them all! 

Pappy, No problem.   ;)
