Ryan,I'll be there Fri. after turkey hunting. Bringing up another shooter this year. I think we have about eight or ten campers with us now. That should be enough to clean up on the door prize table again this year. See ya soon.

Seeing how I've never been to one of these shoots before what are some key items to bring along other than camping gear n some bows n arrows? Are any folks gonna be building any bows,and if so should I take a stave or two to work on n some tools? Should I bring some items for trade?

Thanks Chris


One more week....yay ;D

Sounds like a fantastic plan Bill...I love to shoot as much as the next guy but I can't go all weekend without making some shavings. Ill bring up some tools,and staves of BL,slippery elm,downy serviceberry,ERC,and either a Osage or hickory to work on. Not sure yet what id want to work on and what design.  I need to think that one over. Maybe a hickory and use our shavings to smoke up some meat  ;D

Mainly all I have for trade is the above mentioned staves to trade for stuff minus the Osage(unless its something amazingly awesome). Im looking for some arrows,stone points or rock,yew but I doubt ill find any there,and maybe some more sinew as ya always need more of that stuff. And who knows what else,I guess it just depends on who and what's all there.

Looking forward to this  ;D

you all might be surprized, bring your trade goods and bring your bow making stuff. We have a half dozen bow benches with vises if you need one. I've always wanted to get some more guys involved with making bows and stuff but I'm always so busy I never have the time to get it started. There will be a couple guys flint knapping for sure!
