Marshall Primitive Archery Rendezvous
Buckeye Guy:
Thinking about what goes on that has not been mentioned !
We should tell folks about the Canadian War bow Society these folks come every year and are an interesting lot ,those into war bows should not miss this event !
Marshall is a very family friendly event !
The kids enjoy the place and terrorize the neighborhood frogs and snakes what a blast !
There is some vending, but a whole lot of trading and gifting going on !
The club sells some food !
We share lots of food !
Usually some ATLATLs
This year my good friend William Blalock will be back after a few years off to care for his father , William is a good source for learning all kinds of primitive skills !!
He usually sells fire kits and elm bark baskets and such so you should not miss seeing him !
Some of the best flintknappers are there !
some flintknapping supplies on sale !
And most of you know there is about as much bow building going on as is possible !
Hope to see all of you there !!

Don't know if anyone will be interested but I've got a charcoal 'oven' made from a two foot long washtub that I use to straighten bamboo for arrows or atlatl darts. I'm going to bring that and set it up on Saturday for anyone that wants to see how it works or straighten some bamboo...

how many people are coming nowdays,,I have been there a few times but it was several years ago, really a great place,
Buckeye Guy:
Not the huge numbers you remember .
The club had some difficulties and there were a few years We did not know if it would be open when we arrived or not ,but some of us saw this event as important enough to push on and it has survived !
The club were we hold this event is very stable now, but not into archery so no money for advertizement .
We as a group are able to push forward, and by word of mouth and this forum we have grown the last three or four years !
I don't have numbers , sorry !
We would be glad to have you back and in fact I am glad to see that you are back at this and have missed you , you not being at these events was a loss but we have compensated some what .
Please consider joining in the fun again with us at Marshall !
Since you are going to be at the Classic ask folks there about Marshall !
I am sure you know Gary Davis , and others that would give you their assessment !
Some of the folks that you will see at both events are ( these are their forum names) Blackhawk ,Matt Wirwiki , Pearl drums, Missel Master, Tom Talley, and of course Me !
Have fun!
