Cameroo, good one. When I start a bow, I cannot rest until it is done. I can put it down for the day but I have to finish it. It usually gets done within 2 or 3 days. It becomes all consuming.  What else can an old guy do during the winter in NH, Cameroo? :) Jawge

Just a quick check,  Is anyone having fun?  Or does the wonder ever wear off?   Ron

You mean 'I wonder if that will make a bow?' or 'I wonder what made that one blow up?'  :D

No the wonder has not worn off. I still get the same chills as the first time when I shoot an arrow from a bow I just got to full draw.

Bowmakers are a little bent, but knappers are just plain flaky.
