Distance?

Hawkdancer:
If you could only make one - How far would you drive or travel for a bow jam?  I realize every "jam" is different, and those back east are established.  Timing is also a factor.  I calculated MoJam was about 500 miles for me before I moved, probably 400 now, Marshall ,MI, probably 600, or a 2 day drive, the Montana jam at least that.  What amenities would you need?  What would make you say "no"?

JEB:
I am awaiting medical results and if cleared  there will be no boundaries this summer. I have been a widower for 2 years now and it is time to get out of the house just to maintain what is left of my sanity. So I plan on  attending as many as I can get to especially an event in Pennsylvania (I live in Michigan). Probably more flint knapping events than anything else. Of course covid regulates what's available.

At 72, no more trailer I will either camp in a tent , truck bed or hotel.  That decision is made as I approach the event.

Pat B:
The distance between here and the Tenn. Classic is between 300 and 350 miles, basically about 5 1/2-6 hour drive for me. I've also been to WV to a couple of shoots and that was probably about the same distance. I can easily do those distances by myself. The only time it becomes difficult is the last few hours on my way home after 3 to 5 or 6 days of fun. With a traveling companion or two I could do better than that.
 Both of you guys would love the Tenn. Classic.

JEB:
On my list already Pat. Was there about 5 years ago and had a great time.

Well, I'm hoping again to make the Classic; only time will tell...its a 8-9 hour drive KC to Nashville mileage calculator.
