Title: Christmas Trade
Post by: Trapper Rob on August 27, 2019, 07:33:46 pm
It's that time again if you want in post here & PM me your address. Make sure you post your draw length & weight you shoot sometimes people build bows for the trade.
I'll draw names end of September. Ship date will start Dec 1st everyone should be shipped by Dec 14th.
Rules
It can be something you made or supplies you gathered you can't go to the store to buy a trade gift.
Any questions just ask.

You have a 36 inch draw length full draw?

36" is my regular draw.  But my arm span is 7'4".  My maximal draw is 42".  But I often shoot shorter just to find bows that I can shoot.  Long draw shooters unite!

Put me in the draw.  35-40@32" or more.  Got a good idea of what I'm going to do.

You can count me in again. I really enjoyed making the puzzle box last year, in fact so much so I already started on plans for this year :D

50 - 60# @ 28"

Edward!! WOW!!!!!! how tall are you! (A)
Title: Re: Christmas Trade
Post by: EdwardS on August 29, 2019, 09:27:57 am
I'm 6'4", down from my max of 6'7" after a car accident.  I have Marfan syndrome, which makes my arms and legs longer than they should be.  I learned the overdraw from Kyudo, where arrows up to 44" are used.

@ Sleek - yup! 36 inches. Some say I am part squatch.

question, does everything need to be collected by you? can we buy like thread or artificial sinew? copper wire?
Title: Re: Christmas Trade
Post by: Trapper Rob on September 04, 2019, 07:42:16 pm
Yes you can buy stuff like that to make things with.

Post by: Mr. Woolery on September 08, 2019, 01:58:10 am
I’d like in.

I am in the US, but willing to ship overseas, as long as nobody is going to be expecting a bow sent out of country. It will be something I make and it will be useful. That’s all I’m saying for now.

Just in case, I prefer about 40 pounds, RH, 28.5” draw.

Maybe a little jingle will Get the holiday spirit going (S)! 
 "Ho! Ho! Ho!, there's high country snow!  Deer season is here, arrows have been sent!  Get in the trade now, or you will wonder where the time went.  Birds and bunnies open soon, tonight is the harvest full moon!  Get in soon, be hip!  Got to have time to gather, and make and ship!" :G (B) :-D (SH)
