Pretty bows??

Dano:
I've been known to be a clown like radius, but I'm tring to help here. I guess putting everyone in levels is too much work, sorry Dana, you'll always be intermediate.

DanaM:
Well dang Dano thanks for the promotion I figured I was a beginner yet. Ya made my day :)

And yes Dano I understand your trying to help :)

Badger:
Dano, I always enjoy your posts. I didn't vote this time ( bad on me). For me instead of bow of the month I kind of substitute the word accomplishment of the month. I am just as apt to vote for a new bowyer as I am an old timer. If I feel someone really reached inside themselves and gave it that extra effort and got results I may very well vote for them. A well crafted and finished bow gets my attention everytime. I am the worst guy in the world for nice finishes so I never post bows anymore. I do kind of like the idea of a rookie class, as far as intermediates go, I see guys on their 8th or 9th bow outdoing me all the time so I don't think intermediate would be needed. Maybe we should just discuss more the kind of criteria we might consider when voting, bottom line is each guy will vote how he feels like anyway but open discussions on the subject i think can be good.

i always try to make my bows pretty. apply a nice satin and finish and little touches here and there. i usually make a really shaply handle riser too.  thats just the way i like to do it. it takes a little longer but i think its worth it especially when someone looks at me and says " you made that?"

Keenan:
Dano I like it, ;) and as far as classifying,it's easy. Let people classify themself, but with suggestive boundries. 1-25 bows (novice) and so forth. If someone cosiders themself an acomplished bowyer then you place move yourself up. I'f you won BOM then you are no longer in the beginner class.
  That has some real potential Dano.
