Bowbuilding class: $350 for a four day course. I have retired and live here full time now, I have also built a shop so I can do classes pretty much anytime. group classes are available also. includes: basic stave, you may select juniper, Yew, chokecherry, and serviceberry, as well as some other staves. all tools and materials will be provided. you will need to provide personal protection including gloves, dust mask, and safety glasses. you will need your own camping equipment and meals. you can opt to contribute to a pot-luck dinner or provide your own. we will have a pizza party on Saturday afternoon, if you have a special topping or crust you like please provide it. Camping is included, as well as shooting the 3d course. extra persons camping and shooting for the 4 days is $100 additional. If not shooting $50. there is good fishing on the nearby Sprague and Williamson rivers, and we are only 50 miles from crater lake. we have water available for camping and provide an outhouse. we use "stavemaster" bow building devices which help reduce fatigue and hold the stave well.
You are welcome to come on Wednesday, to set up camp and shoot the course. we will be meeting at 9 am Thursday morning to begin the class. Flintknapping will be done when you want to take a break from the bow.
