RobbH:
Looking to get a group of like minded folks together to make some bows, arrows and bounce ideas off of. Maybe do some shooting/hunting.
Come with whatever knowledge you have or don't have. Id love to learn what you know and willing to share what little I know.
I'm in Columbus/Grove City Ohio area and there seems to be a scarcity of bow makers around these parts.
 I can drive OR offer my shop as a place to meet... and tools to use.

JW_Halverson:
These informal gatherings can be great time!  Wish western South Dakota wasn't so far away.

RobbH:
I agree. You can get to know some great people and learn a lot from them.

And a trip from the Dakotas would be slightly insane.

Thanks for the response. I hope it encourages some other folks.

Eric Krewson:
I tried two bow bees early on. On the first one I had a couple of bow builders besides me and the rest newbies. The newbies would watch us work but even when offered a stave and some tools they backed off, saying "I might mess something up". I tried again with the same results.

A great bow maker and friend hosted one, he had a bunch rubberneckers but no workers, he was very disappointed as he but a lot not putting the event together.

RobbH:
I get it.
Seems no one is interested. Guess I'll be heading out of state for some bow making fun
