Bows / Re: Well we know what it was like without PA !
« Last post by PEARL DRUMS on January 22, 2025, 02:56:44 pm »This treasure trove of stored knowledge can't just go away. I've been mostly inactive for years for many reasons. Can't promise I will post 50 bows a year. But, I will stick my nose in here and there and help when I can. Everything I know about building bows was given freely to me from users of this site. Mr. Brennan is a priceless treasure. I've never met anyone with his patience.

Pappy: your thread 'life is good' is the first one I check when I get on line. Been reading since well, seems like since y'all started posting it.

Bows / Buckthorn project
« Last post by Parnell on January 22, 2025, 01:47:48 pm »Hello gang,
Thought to post and express thanks for those who are making the site possible again. This is an old stave from Missilemaster that I’m fiddling with. Buckthorn responds really well to heat. Gonna work on a Mollagabet design and see what happens. So nice to be back and thank you!

Primitive Shoots and Events / I am planning on going to OJAM!
« Last post by JW_Halverson on January 22, 2025, 01:34:23 pm »No offense to those file folks at Twin Oaks and the Tennessee Classic, but I am expanding my horizons.
Anyone up here in the Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas interested in jumping in the shotgun seat just needs to reach out to me. The dates of OJAM are March 20-March 23. At this moment I intend to arrive early on the 19th, so that means I will be launching out of the Black Hills on Tuesday the 18th. Fastest route has be behind the wheel for 14 hours/934 miles.
My proposed route also goes through El Reno, OK. If you don't know why I am going there then I recommend you google Original Oklahoma Onionburger. This stop will be non-negotiable.
