Title: Veterans Day String giveaway!!! (winner pg #5)
Post by: Oliverstacy on November 11, 2010, 07:49:00 PM
I haven't done this in a long time but I need to do this...I did several last year and earlier this year but haven't had the time for a while to do another.

Since its Veterans Day and the first of many states bow seasons are starting to end we need to do a giveaway!  Thanks to all the fellow Veterans and all the people that have supported the Veterans in the world.

If you are in need of a string please put add your name to the list...I will close it down tomorrow night 11-12-10 at 11 pm EST.  

You don't need to be a Veteran to participate!

I will get them completed mid next week...you get two of your choice.

Thanks all for an interesting year!


Sincerely,

Josh Sowerby
USAF 1992 to 1996, Langley AFB, VA.

Looks like the following was the lucky person...wife drew the winner!


  (http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h138/oliverstacy/IMG_2044.jpg)

L.E. Carroll let me know.

Things I'll need are the following:

Actual String length off the bow with the loops pinched together?
Recurve or a longbow?
FF approved?
Material, strand count and serving?  I can assist if needed!
Limb width 4" down from the string groove on recurve and 3" down on a longbow?

Let me know what you after and we'll go from there!!!

Thanks all!

This is sooo nice.. I just looked this post up to see who the "lucky person" was... I can't believe it  :eek:    :D  

I just recently got a new set of "C" length Morrison L/B limbs to share between a couple of my ILF risers [a mini and a 15"].... I've been looking thru my old strings, trying to find some that would work [ almost all are for re-curves ] I'll do some measuring and send you some lenghts in the AM  :thumbsup:    :notworthy:  

Thank you so much!
