I do not have any of the qualifications that you speak of, but if you decide to go the un expierenced route I have alot of expierence then.:D
Also, if you or someone you know is an engineer/designer and does not necessarily design bows, but works with sporting goods items (guns, reels, etc...) really anything with moving parts and are passionate about bows and bowhunting, I would still urge you to PM me. Thanks!
HCG, my best friend has tons of CAD experience and currently works in the automotive industry... he's looking to get out of that industry BAD -- but he'd like to stay in this area and not move. Any possibility of being able to work remotely from home?

You had me almost convinced till this catching point, if you want to email me an idea of salary potential to [email protected], I might be available for the move. Are you looking for long term or just some one to get you up and productive?
