so here is a new thread for just the gtgers...nov 7th-9th ...camping...showers....fishing...fellowship ...welch park somerville,texas...its not the bow bust but itll be a good time!! PM me here for more info.
-
Hopefully I'll be able to make it down there, I'll see if I can't drag George (gstoneberg) along with me >:D
-
yeah mr stoneberg was at the bust and brought some axis meat....needs to happen again!!! mmm mmmmmm!!!
-
I'll be there :)
-
I wrote it into my Big Chief tablet w/ my fat #2 pencil. I need to work on my bow building skills. I don't have any tools, but I can make a flint scraper. :)
-
make sure to bring some bow building stuff. I will be bringing some osage for trade, as well as one bigger log of osage ( if you can split it off, you can keep it). Try to bring some raw materials of whatever you can so you'll have stuff to trade.
We're also going to be having a bow burning. Bring all your failed bows for firewood ( if you still have them :P ). You never know, we might be able to come up with a way to save some of them, or learn from it.
-
I'll be there! 8)
-
Hey thunder, im gonna bring some stuff to make some of those take down arrows. I'm gonna need to pick your brain about how to properly make them.
-
I'll be there and I'll have some Osage, elm, and persimmon staves all of which I could use guidance with.
-
Hey Guys,
Does anyone plan on being there on Fri?
Thunder 8)

Hey Ink,
I'll bring you some partially finished shafts if you want.

Generally it'll probably be just me and erik there on friday night. More company would be welcome, as erik gets grumpy in the evenings :laugh:
-
Would love to see a lot more people there on friday night though, we set up the fire and camp site. And maybe a little knapping and wood carving. As well as cooking over the campfire.
-
Was thinking about doing some flight shooting/clout shooting this time around as well. So bring your fastest bow, and let the arrows fly. Need to see if i can find a field archery target or two as well.
-
I'll try to stay the night Friday but no promises. I ll bring some tools for you tower.
-
I got a decent knife and a vechawk as well as a compass saw. If I bring food can I come ?

Everyones welcome man, bring what you got as far as hand tools and have some fun.
-
Okay everyone, Gus wants to know what types of food people plan on bringing if your bringing something. That way we can plan out the meals better. Please send me a message to let me know what your intending to bring. If you would like to speak to gus directly to ask what he would need, i can give you his phone #.
-
I will be attending this one! Looking forward to the gtg. I don't post much, still new at this, but I can't wait to meet everyone.
-
It'd be worth the drive just to meet you nutters. What a fun bunch of off-kilter eccentrics with a broad array of talents. How could it be anything but fun?
Take lots of pics and be extra sure to post anything embarrassing!
-
I'll be bringing the kids and I will be camping out Friday night also. I will bring some drinks. I think I have some cat fish, if some one is bringing a fryer. Other wise it's just deer meat and wild turkey meat.
-
Let me know what to bring. I will be showing up sat morning.

bring your camping gear if your staying the night, a stave and hand tools if thats your thing. If you don't have a stave and are interested in learning, then just bring a good attitude and well help you out . Bring a bow and some arrows/atlatl/spear, were gonna be doing some shooting out there as well. A shave horse if your gonna be needing it for what you are gonna work on. A bandsaw and a belt sander will be out there already.
