Ed I thought you were sticking your tongue out at Darryl because he was showing you how far off your tiller was...:)

Huge thanks to the Pine River club for putting this event on...they make it top notch, along with all the people who attend!  Courses rocked, food was amazing as usual, and the new bow making area was great!

Just a second, ...y'all were chumming the mosquitoes?  Did anyone bag their limit?  I heard the leg sinew on those birds up in MI are good backing material.  Anybody wanna do some tradin?  ::) :o ;D

Chris,
Funny thing about talking with Darryl is that it took me a while to figure out who he was. Then I explained to him that I first got interested in self bows after reading a series of articles that he wrote several years ago for Michigan based "Woods and Water" Magazine.  He did a build with Gary Davis and I though it was so cool that I would have to try it some day. 

Fast forward to 2013 and after reading a article in Primitive Archer that Matt W wrote about the TN classic, I made it to Pappy's for the classic that year and built a bow with Matt.  Again, I didn't know that Matt wrote the article in PA until we got talking.

While at the classic in 2013 I spent time talking with Gary Davis, bought some skins from him and didn't realize that he was the guy that was teaching Darryl in those articles several years ago.

How cool and Ironic is that,,,,,almost spooky,,lol

I'm finding that to be true as well Chris. In the 2 events I have attended this year, the welcome and friendliness has been outstanding. Can't wait to meet up with everyone again.

Yeah, I have found the people at every event I've attended to be very friendly and genuine .  I've only been into primitive archery for a short time and I already feel at home at events and on the forum. 
Love it!

Anyone know how much KHALVERSON'S knife went for in the silent auction. The knife and sheath were some of his normal awesome work! I donated some "Vintage" gear for a door prize. Any of our PA clan grab it?

Oh he knows that well! The more folks get to see and touch Kevin's work, the higher the bids will go. Its amazing stuff, Im proud to carry 2 of his knives on every hunt I take.

It was a great shoot as always. Always a good group of folks to BS and shoot with and although I didn't get under the bow making tent but to stuff my face it looked to be busy. Can't wait till next year.

And yeah, Drew stole that knife at $55... sneaky little bastard.  >:D

Oh danny boy, if you WANT something on a silent auction ya have to really bid not play with piddly little $2 increases - so next time go big or go home.

That knife and sheath was worth way more - but this boy only had $60 of play money in his wallet.  >:D
