Me too, I'm just north of Wylie in St Paul.  Where are you located?  I met Rickey from this board the other day and he's going to show me some knapping and I'm going to help him build a selfbow from a stave.  He's from Garland.  Maybe you can join us if it isn't too far?

We're a very long way from Wharton County though.

Wharton Co? Never heard of it, guess it's East TX like Patrick already said ;D. We're sprinkled all over TX. There are a lot of knap-ins that take place here. I've only been to one in Parker Co around Weatherford. Dig around online, you'll find the one's closest to you..

Weatherford's right on the way to my deer lease.  Do you know when the next one is there?
