You are fine. Pushy when you have experience and wisdom to share is perfectly acceptable. I'm here to learn all I can so bring on the wisdom. I have been looking at the tn classic for a couple of years. I havent been able to go because of work. This year for tn is out. But if my house sells here shortly then I'll be able to go to all of them from here on out. I definitely want to go bad.
Eric Krewson:
Another take; I only shoot the bows I made, once you make a bow it will be your go to bow more than likely, anything you buy will gather dust.
I have had people want to trade bows with me but I know I wouldn't shoot their bow more than a few times to test it, I am in tune to my bows.
Make a bow, if you find it is not your thing, buy a bow.
TimBo:
Eric has a great point - there is really something to be said for making your own, even if it is not perhaps as well made as one by a master bowyer. Of course, I'm pretty sure Eric's bows are also made by a master bowyer...I also think it is nice to have one you KNOW is great as a way to measure your progress if you are making your own.
