Great to have you back Bernie!
I hope to build another bow or three...I have acess to a couple of fantastic self-boyers, but they live about 2 and 4 hours from me.....
Thinking hard about shooting my selfbow at the IBO Traditional Worlds in a couple weeks. I need LOTS more practice though...haven't been able to shoot nearly enough this year.
Tell ya what I have learned, and I know kent might disagree as he has no issues. But I never tiller more than 1/2 hour at a time. And I only do it when I feel like it or in the mood. Let me put this way, I have been working on this bow since March.
