I couldn't find a regular "Introductions" section, so I suppose I'll just get started here: My name's Steve and I live in Berea, KY. For the past few months, I've been working on-and-off on my first bow. It's sort of pyramid-style, but more of a character bow, made from some sort of evergreen (unfortunately, I'm only good at identifying basic hardwoods -- tree identification: another thing on my "to do" list). I had no intentions of harvesting part of that particular tree, but a thunderstorm topped it, so it seemed an opportune piece of lumber for trying my hand at bow-making.
If anyone is curious, "Stickboy" is actually a nickname my dad gave me as a kid, being as I was a scrawny little fella. Now, he still calls me that. Probably because I'm still a scrawny little fella... Anyway: I thought it an appropriate moniker for a member of a group who share a love of things at the same time affectionately as derogatorily called "stickbows." I look forward to trying my hand at the exploits of the community.
