My son has completed USAF fight school and will graduate as the top pilot in his class. As a child he built a bow with Pat B during the TN classic and their picture was in the Primitive Archer magazine.
Now for me...I have been struggling with ureter damage form a kidney stone and waiting for a surgery to repair this BS.

Congrats to your son , hope all goes well with you and your surgery, thanks for the up date. By the way they painted the wall at the spirit station again this year at the Classic, always think of you when they do that. :)

Great accomplishment! Sorry about your health issue!

Knowing that young man I am not surprised at all.
Hang in there, John. All my best to your embarrassingly far, far better half and Isaac.

Congratulations to your son. I’m sure you are very proud of him.
Hope you get fixed up.

In this Primitive Archer forum discussion, many members are sharing experiences about documenting their bow-making process and hunting trips in a more practical way. A few traditional archers mentioned recording voice notes while working on staves or after a long day in the field, since writing things down isn’t always convenient. Turning those recordings into a transcript of voice recording (https://speech2text.pro/online-voice-to-text) later can be really helpful for keeping track of measurements, wood characteristics, or tuning adjustments without breaking the flow of work. Some users pointed out that having a written transcript makes it easier to review details, share progress with other forum members, or compare techniques over time. For people who prefer hands-on craftsmanship and minimal tech, this approach strikes a good balance between staying traditional and still preserving valuable information from each build or hunt.
