 Pappy, I had the time of my life. Finest bunch of folks I have ever met in my life. I wished I would have shot more, I only did the practice course. Next time I come less bow making and more shooting. The bow making arena gets going and the energy is contageous, hard to stop. I can't thank you enough for such a great vacation.

Badger, it was a pleasure meeting you and learning from you.  I'm sure your grandson is going to love that BL bow.

I learned something from just about everyone in the bow building area.  Saturday night was especially rewarding for me.  A tall guy, Dave, I  believe was working on his first bow.  At one point all the experts were occupied and he asked my advice.  Being the least experienced bow maker there (about 10 bows under my belt), I was a bit hesitant, but gave him the best advice I could.  He made his rounds asking everyone about the bow and I followed him.  It was very affirming for me to hear the more experieced bowyer giving him the same advice.  You all are a great bunch of guys.  Thanks.
