Thanks for sharing the pictures Pappy. I should have come this year. Didn't get any farming done anyway. Need to stick a pin in the thumb of Michigan one of these years. Right on the sunrise side.

I agree with Paul. Definitely saved the best picture for last. You make a darn good looking Grandpa.
Bless You All

Thanks guys, she really enjoyed it and I enjoyed showing her around. I had a great weekend, we did do a little work around, got the PA tent down and tables put away, all we like now is the big tent and things should be back to normal. I spent most of the weekend shooting and working on bows. Glad to be back at it. Had several down which was a surprise after the long weekend we just got through. ??? Everyone ready to work on bows and shoot. I got one I have been working on for a while finished tillering and shot in and ready to seal also another one floor tillered and ready to long string so made some headway. Here are a few pictures of the fun. Finely shooting,This one for some reason had some really funny twists and turns and had to tweak 5 or 6 time to get it where I wanted it, good lesson for some of the guys, I told them patients is all it usually takes but you just have to stay at it.  :)

While cutting antler for over lays I had this skull center left, couldn't let it go to waste.  ;) Got Brandon's shooting and it turned out nice. We started it last year from a green stave we got from Clint, very nice wood but was green so we roughed it in and worked on it a little at a time, now a year and few months old it was ready. He is tickled with how it shoots and it is ready for finish. Bill showd up working on a stave and Chuck working on a bend in the handle bow and keeping watch on the fire. :)

Chuck getting his ready for the form and Brandon with his first shot, tiller looks a little stiff in the upper third but the stave had a lot of reflex and after tillering it is still holding over 2 inches as soon as it is un braced so not sure if it needs anything except shooting. Sally still recovering for the Classic. ;) :)

That one was a challenge too!

Brandons bow sure shoots well with his Bill string. Nice bow.
