I'll get in on the trade, i was in the one and on TG last year it went pretty good. I'm also in the one this year.

Who do we send are mailing info too ? When is the cut off for getting  in ? are a couple of question i have.

I'll be happy with whatever i get as long as my builder put his best effort into it, thats all you can do.

I shoot RH 26'' on up in draw length and anything 30# and up on draw is cool !

For cheap and very durable shipping containers, consider dropping by your local carpet store.  They throw out some of the best heavyduty bow shipping tubes ya ever saw. 

I really don't know if I can get one done by Memorial Day with the schedule I have, but if it comes to it, I will ship my own bow if I gotta.  Yeah, I guess I am in.   (Bevan, yer on your own, sucka!)

26" draw, right handed, 50-60#, no yew please (climate is too dry and a broken yew bow would break my heart).
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

As long as there is an honest effort, 26 or 36" doesnt matter to me. I know I may have trouble getting exact draw weight and draw length, so I'd be a hypocrite for asking for a specific weight and length. I am a righty though and have 0 other preferences.

Josh,
Would you add a 'shelf' to my specs please?
