Getting ready for the Classic
Pappy:
Guess we will get back at it this weekend,I am fletching arrows for the awards and GregB has
most of the starves roughed out,I think around 25 adults and 7/8 kids.Man it's a lot of work to pull all this together but it just don't seem like it.I guess as they say a labor of love. :)

D. Tiller:
Wish I could go!
Pappy:
Well we got all the wood cut for the camps,so I guess we can get back on getting some stave's ready and primping up the place around there,we keep it nice most of the time ,but I love it when people see it for the first time and say man this looks like a park,Got some more new targets on the way and already planing the range out.We try and do some special things to make it a challenging but fun shoot.The practice range is set so we are getting there.We have one more Major working next weekend and then it is on.We have some folks planing on coming in on Monday or Tuesday the 30th and 1st so we need to be ready. ;D

Justin Snyder:
You guys are awesome. I can hardly wait. ;D Justin
GregB:
Justin, we're getting excited too! It's a lot of work, but the kind of work you don't mind.
I'd personally really like to share bow makin' techniques back and forth with you guys that are coming. Each of us probably do various steps of the process a little different. I like to see different techniques and judge for myself if I want to change or tweak something I'm doing. With all the talented bowyers coming, I think it's a really good opportunity for us to share in person the same type of experiences that are shared here.
Also, there will probably be a lot of the people making bows that are complete beginners. Please feel free to jump in there and give some guidance if you see a need. Pappy and I will undoubtedly be stretched pretty thin, any help would be greatly appreciated! ;) But on the flip side, don't turn it into a chore, just enjoy yourselfs! ;D
