Welcome aboard budmenchaca,

You are not to far from several PA folks in North Texas.
I'm in Houston, but get up that way when ever opportunity presents itself... :)

Thanks for the  warm welcome Gus.

I primarily knap stone points and knives but I've been researching self bows for a while now and I want to gather as much knowledge from those of you guys that are actually doing it so that I can make my own.

This is a great site and I look forward to logging on every day.

Bud,

You're not that far from me. Drive on up to St Paul, pick an osage stave off my wood rack,  and we can have a bow bending for you in not very long. I can probably get some knapping tips from you while you're here. My shop is always available to a new bowyer.  EDIT: my shop's available to ANY bowyer (or knapper). :)

Thanks for the invite George. You aren't but an hour's drive from here! I'll definitely have to get all my ducks in row so I can get up there sometime. I really appreciate the hospitality...it's a constant reminder of why I love this forum.

That's God's country, grayflynt!

My wife and I took a road trip all through the mountains out there a few years ago. We drove all kinds of old mountain passes. We came to a point where it was left to Cripple Creek or right to go toward Colorado Springs. We had plans in the Springs, so we took a right. Next time, I think we'll go left.

It was delightful. I was stationed at Fort Carson for a couple years. I go back whenever I get a chance.

Starting to work my way back towards TN.  Ready to be home.  Got to get back out in the woods and decide where to open the season.  I've got it narrowed down to two spots.

Hey Kyle, post some photos of your leatherwork on the "Primitive Skills" section.  I get the feeling some of the folks in here would appreciate your talents.
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

Originally from Neosho, Missouri (SouthWest) but currently stationed in Jacksonville, Arkansas (Central) for the Air Force. Let me know if anyone that builds bows or Knapp's is close, as I am new to the Primitive aspect and would love a chance at getting 1st class advice and hands on! -Levi-
