Somewhere out in Trad Gang Land I think there is probably a child in the 6-9 year old range that needs a bow, that would love to shoot with his or her dad........I would like to remedy that.  I have two osage selfbows that I made a few years ago, one for me, and one for my son Hunter.  Both are snakeskin backed with antler tips and leather grips, mine is 64", 50@29", his is 48", and about 12@16".  Hunter has since outgrown his bow, and it has sat on the bow rack for a couple of years now, as has mine.  (The adult bow is right handed, and the youth bow is left handed, but I will modify it to be a lefty/righty bow before it goes out).

Here are the bows....
 

 

 

This is how I would like to see this work.....if you are interested and fit the criteria of having a child without a bow, and you will also shoot a selfbow, send me a short note on via PM why you should be the one to get the bows.  

There is a level of trust involved here as there is one big caveat attached to this......when your son or daughter outgrows the youth bow, you must send both on to another parent/child combination to keep the bows shooting.

I will pick the deserving parent/child winner on January 6th.......

That is outstanding David! Is hunter's bow a lefty, or is that just a floppy rest that can be changed.

I wish Adam and I fit the criteria, as those are beautiful. We're all set for gear and we shoot together quite a bit. Good luck to all the boys and dads, or girls and dads, or boys and moms, or girls and moms!

OUTSTANDING David. Someone is going to have a blast. Good on you.<><            <><

You're right Kenny, Hunter's bow is lefty as is, but I will modify it to make it right/left handed before it goes out.

David

Those are incredibly beautiful bows.  One I would very proud to own and shoot.  But I must confess my children are all a bit too old to fit the restrictions aptly applied to this offer.  I hope someone who does have young children can see the value and generosity of this opportunity.
Happy new year, Christopher.

A beautiful gesture for the new year !
Good shoot'n and hunt'n to the new owners !

Outsanding thing to do David. My boy isnt big enough yet.

What a cool thing to do!          

What a generous thing to do. Fantastic

That Is Sooooo Cool!!!  

Wonderful offer, alas my lass is too big for the youth bow. I hope these bows see good use to whomever they go to.

Cool David,but my boys have outgrown me!! Way to pass it on!!          

Beautiful bows.My wild beast is 7 now and it would be really cool for he and I to have matching bows.Please add me.Thank you for a great, generous gesture.

Very, very nice Mr. David...

David,

What you are doing is way cool.  I am sure that some kid and dad will be spending great times together because of this gift.  

This is one of the things that makes this group so great.

ps  Please do not include me and sky.  I just wanted to post encouraging you.

very nice of you David :0)

Here's another example of why I hang out here...
Very kind gesture and beautiful work on the bows.

Very nice!  Class act all the way!

Wow! Very generous. It would be a nice set up for my grandaughter and myself, but I don't think I'm deserving enough.

how will you modify them?
