lol I ain't that bad! Not a bad day at all. Had about 50 kids and a couple parents learn to tie a basic fly today.
Went through 3 rooster saddles and a whole bunch of hooks. Girls seemed have more dexterity than boys. Out of all the kids 3 were seriously interested and 1 father. No pics since all the kids were under 18. I'm probably in hundreds of
Parents pics though.

Not one kid stuck themselves with the hook point yet I did it 4 times. Had one little girl sit with me for over an hour and half. Going through all my feathers and furs. Had to give her flies straight out of my personal boxes. She liked those the best. Lol

That's a nice looking bow for about half the price of the Howard Hill longbow I am looking at. The Fred Bear Montana looks nice to, but is pricy for what it is imo.

I'd still like a take down for the convenience, but I've come to realize that a take down can wear in those spots and cause the bow to become untuned. The upside is if I snap a limb on a take down, I can buy a new limb.

White WOlf Custom makes a nice custom longbow at a decent price.

I'm probably way over thinking things though.

Those bows are nice too. Just about all of them are nice. I just really don't wanna pay $600 for the wood accents. I really do like the darker wood bows though. Originally I was thinking the same thing with the takedowns too. I have a bunch of money wrapped up in lone wolf and muddy tree stands so with a little shorter longbow I would still be able to use them. Bearpaw USA is selling the slick stick for $350 + a free bow stringer, and fleece bow sock. Haven't found a bad review yet on the bow itself. 30 yr warranty which is good too and it's transferrable.
That Fred bear Montana seems to have a bit of hand shock from the reviews I've read. So that's what you get for the extra $50. Lol

I'm gone all day teaching a fly tying class and I come home to this.
