Making the lightest arrow
Pat B:
Xin, I'm about as smooth as it gets. ;) My job is to stop the snowball before it gets too far down the hill. ;) Pat

Destructo, K.B.Z.E.R. is just jibberish in response to your T.M.I., which I suppose is too much information. As I pointed out in an earlier post, this is all in fun which I think you realized, but I'm not so sure The B'ster did. Any way , If you or the B'ster were offended, I apologize for repartee which obviously was misconstrued. There is no snowball to stop. Both of you fellows post some really nice bows and arrows. Destructo , your knives are real works of art and I really like your Wampanoag style bows.

Tanks a Lot Eh!!! I can take da joke ot ya know....cause I'm a Yooper....and We does allot a jokin bouts ourselves ya know.... :D
All kidding aside....I think I like making Knives as much or maybe more than Bows..... But when I am building Bows....I sure have a preference to Native Bows over .....Recurves........ :o
Pat B:
I'm not offended...only trying to prevent possible problems. That's why I suggested you guys keep it on topic. ;) Pat

Destructo, I've been bowyering, fletching, and knapping for 15 years. All of my bows,except for one , have been some sort of N.A. reproduction with the Wampanoag being my favorite, even paid a visit to it at Harvard Peabody museum. My knapping has only been sporatic over the last 15yrs, but the last year I have been concentrating on breaking rocks. I've got a long way to go before I'm as good as you. The bow making thing is a lot easier than knapping. Any rock over 2inches, will soon be a broken rock if I'm knapping it. Really frustrating to get a good Clovis goiing only to snap it in half as you flute it. B'ster, I'll do my best to stay on topic,but sometimes a little drift off course can break the monotony.. I've been reading PA magazine since around the first year it was published and have been lurking around this website almost as long as it has lbeen up, even through the period when it was almost nonfunctional. I find both informative and entertaining, although both can at times can use a little mirth. Any attempts on my part to introduce levity will not be mean spirited.
