Hawkeye Bowmen Spring Thaw Rendezvous
April 24,25 and 26 2009

If you are looking for a small afordable self bow shoot, this shoot may be for you.This will be the 6th year for the Spring Thaw Rendezvous. Most years we average between 50 and 60 Primitive Archers.
We set up 20 or so 3D targets along with a hand painted paper targets course, a bow making area. There is lots of room to camp, a Woodswalk Shoot and a Clout Shoot plus a Pot Luck Feast on Saturday. Historical Camps and Attire is welcomed but not required.
Hawkeye Bowmen is located at 13300 Clinton Street (Rte354) Marilla New York. Gate opens at 10am on Friday and the Shoot runs through Sunday at noon.

Ryano:
This is a great shoot guys! I've been to this one every year since it started. Wouldnt miss it for the world. These guys know how to have a good time.  ;D

BrianS:
Ryan,

Thank you for the kind words. The reason the shoot is a good time is the folks like you and the rest of the PA boys who attend. It's turned  into a sort of Selfbow Family Reunion. Kind of a diverse group of folks ( Backwoodsmen, Hunters, Buckskinners, Vikings, English Longbowmen, Bow Makers, Flintnappers and such) with at least one thing in common, a interest in Primitive Archery!

Take care,
Brian

BrianS:
It looks like there should be some nice raffle prizes again this year. There may even be a bow or two given away.

Is it a selfbow only shoot?
