It didn't hit the reserve the first time it was up for sale.

With my luck someone else will show up who wants it bad. The second last bid determines the price.

Bert, you can pick up a Beaver Creek longbow blank from Curly McFletch cheap and make it into a dual shelf like mine will be. Then you could shoot it either way.

I hear there is a guy who lives right near your house who is a master bowyer and might be able to give you a hand finishing the work on the bow.

Oh and that advice you were giving me about saving a tree? You think eating a Beaver Creek might work too?   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

On second thought Bert, you just learn everything you can about making interesting limb tips and I will bring my Beaver Creek to the shoot in Lethbridge and teach you everything else you need to know in trade for you finishing my tips.

We put some good old ATBA heads together we could conquer the known world.
