Hopefully Wayne can get down to the South and see what that Southern Hospitality is all about. Twin Oaks sure has a heap of that to serve up at the Classic!

Wished he could also, I talked to him and he said not this year [working 8 days a week] but hopefully next year, he is sending some stuff for the raffle table and very generously offered some seconds for us to use for kids arrows, we have lots of kids and they loose lots of arrows so that will come in very handy.
Thanks again Wayne for your support of PA.

Hiya all
i know its been a while, apologies for the delayed response, its tough to find time to spend at the PC even with these 9 day weeks.we have literally been snowed under with orders- 3D season I guess.

Anyway here are some pics of some of the shafts going out to the winners. both winners were notified immediately. However, they both opted for Hemlock shafts for their additional bonus prizes, and they know that the hemlock is in process. it all just takes a little bit of time, with all the stabilization times we allow for in the process.

Wow, what a weird bunch of people we are, getting all excited for a change to win a bundle of sticks!

That being said...those are some very nice looking sticks!

well- they make pretty darn good kindling too

if the shooting doesnt work out so well!
perfect size- nicely seasoned!

Got me excited Wayne, those look real nice. I'm completely out of parallel shafts now to and just broke one of my Red Osier tapered shaft trying a head shoot on a ground hog in our wood pile.

did you get the ground hog? thats what counts! arrows are sacrificial i guess! are they edible?
interesting how you try for a head shot, i would just be trying for a "ground hog " shot- somehow i think your shooting skills are a lot more refined than mine!!

the hemlock is in process now- and hopefully we can get your entire package off to you soon.
as we dont kiln dry our wood- we allow for periods of stabilization between each stage of the process- that adds to the production time unfortunately.
if however you get desperate for shafting- we can send the spruce- just the shipping would be higher than just shipping one package.

cheers

Sorry to say no I didn't get the ground hog. Ha ha I'm betting your a better shot than me Wayne. Only reason I took that shot was because I was getting to cold waiting for him to come out of the log pile. All he offered me was head shot from about 19 yards. Knew it was high risk low chance shot. Was either going to get him or glance off log or slam into cement wall. Was favoring the glancing off log, should have been aiming small. To tell the truth I've never shot one but they get digging under our cement floors taking the sand out and wrecking the floor. I have a buddy in a wheelchair that loves to spend his summer hunting them.They are really becoming a terrible problem, he got over 200 last year and they just keep gaining in numbers. I have enough Red Osier to keep me shooting, no hurry on sending them out. Bjrogg
