I might buy some off of you.

I been considering getting one off of knight. But I would feel like I was cheating buying a half built bow. Actually more than half.

BC has lots of Yew, but I am in Alberta, a long way from any Yew Trees.

Ive been trying to get you to take me up to Okievill. The guy in B.C. was goning to trade an osage stave and some leg sinue for a yew stave. And about that shaving osage, I have not touched a bow since last fall when I finished up last seasons lam bow. The bamboo ipe osage one I had on our hunts. Ive still got your snake skins and bow in mind. You are next in line. Here in a few weeks, im going to get some selfbows made, and yours is the first. Im also planing on coming your way to tackle a beer or three ASAP.

Don't worry about a bow for me(still sounds great) just want to keep you in the groove of building...hate to see skills get rusty on folks! But better hurry down if you want a beer...I'm only one man but I'm fighting the Coors Light off all alone! Oh may go out next weekend,may have good snake skin supply that need harvesting!
