Can't find the website anymore, you might try to private message to horseapple.
JD makes awesome bows!!!!!
Nice Bow, Hope you enjoy.
I talk with J.D. off and on and he's doing fine. Said he was going to make a few bows this summer. Haven't heard from him in a couple of months though. Probably out turkey hunting now.

Hey JD, wanna be friends? :D
Seriously, the build-a-long you did a long while back on a bamboo backed bow still has to rate as one of the best ever posted. Thanks.
Appreciate the kind words
