What about a MIJAM? I have thought about that for a longggg time. Michigans own bow building weekend.

The Elm Hall club would make for a nice central locale??????????????????

I agree, not too far from the MI/IN border and 1/2 way to the Bridge (the Yoopers will just have to suck it up and drive a little further like usual)   >:D

Who "owns" or runs that facility, do you know?

The MIJAM idea would be great. I did enjoy the Marshall shoot and plan on spending the weekend next year. I heard that the Pine River Rec club is good about allowing groups to rent the property out. This would be great  for next year.

MIJAM sounds real cool!  I'll bet the Elm Hall guys would entertain the idea.  I could run it past Brent if you'd like? 

And yes, the Marshall shoot is gaining back some ground.  I'll be there for certain.

that sounds great Matt...what time of the year are you guys thinking would make the most sense and not compete with hunting seasons or major family holidays?  I'd be up for helping out...

Funny you should mention this.  I was just talking to the "little woman" about the topic.  To pull something off like that, I don't think that we'd be able to do it this year.  I was telling her though, that I would try to get some of you MI guys together either at Kalamazoo or Marshall to throw out some ideas.  Marshall would probably be the better place.  Maybe it was the WAJAM article in the new PA magazine that got me thinking about it again.

So with that, plan on going to Marshall on Memorial Weekend, if at all possible:  Slikkers, Watson, Drums, Guy.  Let's gather around the campfire and throw out some ideas.

I'll be at K-ZOO for sure. I am on the MTB council and our meeting is on Saturday morning. I can be seen around the membership booth afterwards. I am a rookie at bow building and I am looking at getting a start this year at Marshall. I plan on making it for the weekend is all goes well. I have a self-bow from Mr. Dick Carrigan that may be on its last leg (splintered back). So I am not sure if I will have one to shoot. This means I have to get busy building one.

Tom:  Plan on sitting under the pavillion at Marshall for sure.  In a couple of days, you should be shooting arrows out of your new selfbow.

See you then!
