I'm liking this idea. A lot. Tony, you can't keep all the bows you (want to) make anyway. Might as well sell a few to the members here to fund your habit. You know I would also gladly pre-pay for a carbon copy of "Greenie" if you are interested.

Right now my focus is to get my sights set for the Tradfest! But I do have a Sleezebay account should I decide to auction one off. Or I could list one on classifieds here. ???

Now what kind of question is that?!?! :evil: I say sell em right here. :D I may not need a new bow, but that don't mean I can resist buying one. :lol: Besides, I have 4 kids and 2 grandsons who will be in the need eventually.

Definitely should do it here
Nothing clears a troubled mind like shooting a bow.

My bet is, it will be a cyber brawl on here to get a Carp bow! Lol!
The element of surprise can never be replaced by persistence.

Wow; went to Church and got humbled, came home and got on here and got the big head! The only thing that would make one of my bows special is that you guys get to see it built. Keep pumping me up and I'm going to have to let my wife read this. :lol: :lol: But I remember the Monkey on the pole and I ain't going up there! :oops:

From all indications so far I am going to say yes. There are some guys on another site doing testing on it. One put a sprayed piece in the freezer then bent it to see if there would be any wrinkles or cracks. So far so good.
