A while back I asked for some decal ideas. Well it turned into something more. You will see a couple of the ideas in this design.
The design work was done by Gary Logsdon of Wilderness Artistry. Gary has done work for Brothers of the Bow and the Wensels.
The design has meaning to it. Here it is broken down.
A stone point representing the archers of ancient past.
A crescent moon symbolizing a "bent bow" as referred to in Maurice Thompson's inspirational writings of the 1800s.
A silhouette reminiscent of Fred Bear, "The Father of Modern Bowhunting", on a "hunter's journey".
Finally a quote reflecting the passion we have for the total experience of hunting with a simple bow.
I am going to get some t-shirts made up first. They will be black with the design on the front. I will be taking pre orders as soon as I can get my website updated.
So what do you think? :archer:

I like it! Sign me up for 2. :thumbsup:
Ya!!! I will be getting a couple of those as well!!
Very nice!!
Very nice. I like the symbolism that you put in it. Put me on an e-mail list for your site please, I'll send a pm
Paul, Those are sweet!!!
I hope the "Tradgangers" like the design. As Paul said, I tried to make it different, something that would connect with those of us who passionately go afield with a simple bow in hand. The symbolism was inspired by archery history as well as narration from Primal Dreams, the recent ground breaking film produced by my friends the Wensel and Mitten brothers. Finally, I knew Fred Bear, a fine gentleman, so it was an honor to include an image reminiscent of his "Restless Spirit".
I will be getting a couple of those. Also sent you a Private Message. :thumbsup:
I had to come back and look at it again. Great job y'all!
Yep, I like it too! Let us know when available.
Nice I like it.
I Like. count me in for at least one ;)
I'll take a couple of 3xlt Outstanding art work

Looks good and I hope you will have long sleve as well. We'll be waiting.
Cool design. I'll want some window decals when availble
Now that decal I like, very nicely done. I'm not one to have decals on my truck... of any kind, but that one I would actually consider. That is the most "fitting" traditional design I've seen.
Just wondering how big the decal on the shirt would be? If it goes on the front I just like the smaller pocket size. Any chance you could do it that way??
Great design. Is there a longbow version?
OUTSTANDING!!
Sign me up for a shirt also!
Thank's for all of the positve feedback. One one thing that I have been hearing, is to put the design on the back. When I place the order, the design will be on the back. Along with a small pocket design on the front.
Nice work Paul!
Let us know when the website is updated so we can order.
It probably goes without saying but I just wanted to let everyone know how rewarding it is for me to hear your comments.
What Dave wrote: "Now that decal I like, very nicely done. I'm not one to have decals on my truck... of any kind, but that one I would actually consider. That is the most "fitting" traditional design I've seen." Well, that's very reassuring. Many thanks to Paul for seeing this through.
I'm not one for decals either. But that one says it all for me. Great design with the proper message. I will take one when they are available.
Paul, thanks for listening. I'll be placing an order when they're ready.
Gary, what can I say, your design spoke to me.
Nice job all around.
Very Nicely done and straight and to the point. Very Tasteful. I'll be ordering one or two for sure with some decals too.
Great work Gary and Paul. You know, that would make a great patch as well. I know it would be a bit pricey compared to screens and decals but it would last forever and would be worth the $$ to me and probably others. Just a thought. Grant :thumbsup:
Grant, I actually thought of a patch. This is a great design that can and will be going on many other items.
Congrats,the spirit of bowhunting.I take 4 decals,2 patches and 2 T-shirt,let us know when they will be available
Great design, I think "Blackhawk" would like one in pink with a teal design...PR
Very nice.
Just told my son that we'll be wearing the design to Comptons next summer.
Here's what the shirts are going to look like. I will have them in-stock with in 2 wks.
They are Super Heavyweight T-Shirts which are 6.1oz and 100% cotton by Gildan.
