Daryl:
If you've been to longbow safari, we have probably meet. Through the first 15-16 I only missed #3. The second one at Clarisholm, small world. The two Dave's and Colby (the fathers of the Safari) are very good friends of mine. I've made wooden arrows commercially under the name "Whispering Wind Arrows" for 25 years, and one of the minds behind the Split-Pine Hexshaft that was made in Vanderhoof, BC
