last year my wife and/or I did something like 23 events and out of local practices and we wanted to do more. we do sca stuff 3 or 4 nights a week + Sun practices. When it stops being fun we will slow down. Active is what you can give. If you can be active on a local level and that's it, your still a...

I'm still useing the 2 soliflex swords I got from you last year! I'll be getting more for piece of mind! More of the big ones I did for you? No... I don't use that one too much... it hits a bit hard. I use it for melees For tourneys I use regular silo-flex 36' with dragon forge cages and I'm going ...

Speaking as a Trimarian who has been known to carry a bow, though not for some time now, It isn't a matter of targeting Knights or the comanders or anyone else who feels like they are being "hunted". We teach our archers to make every shot count.... you can't shoot through a shield... don't waste th...

Gentlemen and Ladies... take a deep breath... I do not know Bryce but his renown is not unknown to me and from that I would know him to be a good man and a man of honor. What I read in his post (and I replied in kind) was good natured smack talk. Basically he said "Hey guys, I can't go to the war, g...

Has anyone had any dealings with Bonnie's Bailiwick?

I'm looking at their silks and wanted a review.

Thanks

As I am A Knight, any I see who attempt to molest those archers who do service for my King will answer to me!

Ceddie

How would you rate their communication? They seem pretty good right now, but thats before i payz my cash. Their work seems very good and at a good price too. their comunication was ok, not great. It took a while for them to return calls and e-mails but they did. I would buy again and I refer them f...

We bought my wife a SS fixedgrill bascinet from them some tine ago. It took a while to get but once we got it, it was worth the wait. The price was outstanding the wait was about a week longer than quoted (3 months) The welds were a bit rough, but for the price I was very happy. the bargrill stuck o...

The Cup Shot: It's a legal target in Trimaris. We don't have any legal targets that we aren't allowed to throw at. Once in 15 years, I thought about it. I hit the guy in the head with no result, I changed my targeting to the shoulder... nothing, I switched to the armpit and again I wasn't hitting wi...

There was no question in the 1st case, the fellow was bear chested and we watched the mark come up while he was explaining the placement. It was also one of those "unmpf...good" shots. In the 2nd case you really had to be there, the body language was real clear, much more so than my recounting. I do...

Ceddie

The system of combat in the SCA does not allow for one to call another's blows. To that end, it is impossible for someone to be a cheater without another making judgement and assumption about that person's motives. With these things being true, it is impossible for this conversation to occur and be...

I know of 5 in 16 years, one was a Knight.
2 were at different wars.
4 had them returned within a year, after whatever problem got solved.
I disagreed with 4 of the 5.

Ceddie

what's your addy, I'll just mail them to you.

Ceddie

Well, the shoes were in the mail box when we got home today. They are great, she loves them!!
At Gulf War, if you have a pair of size 12 that fits I'll buy them!!

(I'm hoping for brown or black

)

Ceddie

I have no doubt that the product will be all I hope for, I have handled your shoes before and they are some of the best on the market. I would not have ordered if I had ANY question that I wasnÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t going to get an absolutely top a notch shoe, they are for my wife and I wonÃ¢â‚¬â„¢t get her anyt...

Ceddie

Really, I ordered some that were in stock in early Jan. I was told they were in stock; it would take about 10 days to get the sole put on. At the beginning of Feb., I asked about them and I was told the soles were just now in, and I should have them near the end of the following week. My most recent...

The majority if my pell work is slow work, I spend my time making sure my targeting and placement is spot on, I pay attention to every detail of my form, my footwork, my hips and shoulders even the blade orientation. Then I do the last 20-25% full speed. As far as slow partner drills, I've seen them...

Ceddie

stuff came in yeaterday and it looks great!

what is left?

Ceddie

Ceddie

it you can, go. it's worth it.
I've done one of Bob's weekends and it totaly changed the way I look at fighting.

Ceddie

rock on, now tet's just wait and see what happens next.

Ceddie

....oops, sorry, I looked at the pic and didn't read the text. still the progress is great!

Ceddie

I'm with you Murdock, sometimes you gotta playball. I wish that we could change it faster but at least we are trying to affect a change, untill then, you can say, "I won't do it" from the sideline all you want, you're still on the sideline and not in the fight. No i'm not being positive. I'm being r...

Ceddie

Batu,
looking good bro, do you have any more upgrades, as of now, in the works? If so, what do you have in mind?
The pride you take in your kit should be an example to a lot of folks, I wish more people would follow your lead.

what would you suggest for a roundel? I think a hockey puck would work but it seems a bit "clunky".

tendonitis on the elbow sucks. What I did and am still doing was I started with anti-inflammatory not pain killers. reduce the swelling and the healing can start. mask the pain and you will continue to damage yourself. then get a strap that goes around the forearm for the compression. Next I got a c...

Ceddie

yep! thanks.

BTW It has doors on both ends.
