Hey brother, I'm feeling good after my core wood Sale that just finished and would like to see if I might make this years bow swap just a tad bit better.
Since I want be in it, I'd like to help where I can.
For the one glass bow builders I'm going to donate a 4 piece set of my spliced veneers.

For one of the wood/tri-lam/backed bow builders I've also got something.
A pair of Osage board billets. These billets are 36" long, 1-5/8" wide and just a tad over 1/2" thick.

It's been a long time since I've build a selfbow/backed bow but I know these will make a really nice bow.
Now comes the kicker....
You my friend are going to be the one to draw the names. Yep you!!
Once you have all the entries (via the cut off date). I'd like for you to draw one name from the glass bow builders and one name from the wood bow builders.
Once you have those names, send their names to me and I will contact them for shipping info.
These will go out at no cost to anyone except myself.
So for those of you that are involved, may the highest briber have the force on your side. :bigsmyl:

very cool Troy- kudos man!!
-
Very nice Troy! :thumbsup: Both the veneers and the osage boards look great.
-
Troy that is awesome thanks. Now I know who's name I drawing to build my bow. :bigsmyl:
But will do I will put all the names back in the hat and draw them out. Now the real question Troy. Do you want me to leave the over seas glass guys out? That might be a bit more pricey then you really want to do.
Those are very sweet lams. I bet my glass makers increase 10 fold.

No Sir,,, "Do Not" leave anyone out. They are a part of this brotherhood as much as the fellows that live in the same state I do.
If it cost a tad bit more to ship to them, so be it.
The business saying of "you have to spend money to make money" is part of it.
Besides,, I'm finally going 'World Wide" on my sales with PayPal payment.

Will do Troy I just wanted to make sure. In the army we have a saying about when we assume to much. And I did not want to take your kindness for granted.
