-
I reckon I'll make this event ;D
-
Always look forward to our time early in the week Clint. ;) :)
Pappy
-
Me too Pappy. Maybe we can shoot the practice range this time.
-
Yep, since I am retired, maybe I will have most everything done by that time. Pappy
-
If you are like my Dad, you will be busier after you retired than before.
-
This is the year for me!
-
That's good news Jon. I look forward to meeting you in person.
-
Back atcha buddy. Lot's of acquaintances on here that I have really been wanting to shoot the breeze with.
-
Great new Jon, I feel sure you will enjoy it and I look forward to meeting you. :)
Pappy
-
I've been already thinking about this and so glad to see you post it Pappy. Now the planning can begin! :OK I'll have to talk to Bob McMinn first but planning for another week full of Classic fun. (=) -C- (--) :BB (R (-S (W )P(
Looking forward to meeting you, Jon.
-
I hope Bob can make it back this year with you, I missed our early morning conversations. :) :)
Pappy
-
How early can a guy show up?
-
:) :) :) :) :) JonW Some show up the Friday and Saturday before. We usually have quite a few by Monday. I am there all week anyway so come when you can.
Pappy
-
Jon, ya better get there REAL early to find suitable spot for that taj mahal you're gonna be pulling. >:D
-
Hard to find a better event than this one !
Thanks again Pappy and the Twin oaks crew for all you folks do
-
Thanks Guy, yes earlier is better but we will find you a spot whenever you get there. ;)
Pappy
-
Guy, it will be good to see you again. :OK
-
Ya Pat I hope Guy can make it back also, it's a long trip for him but always really enjoy our time together. :)
Pappy
-
I appreciate all you two do would love to see y'all again but have to leave that in the hands of the Lord
You folks keep on bringing the joys of our great addiction to the folks coming around the bend behind us !
I have ten grand kids now so have my quiver full and less time each day to do it
Still have a few archery tricks up my sleeve but they will be close to home now
May the good Lord continue to bless us all
-
I'll see what I can do to make it at least for a couple of days. Maybe we won't get 16 inches of rain this year and I won't need a boat to get there.
Patrick
-
I hope you are right Patrick, seems to happen every year either at the classic or some where close around. :) Hope it works out for ya. :)
Pappy
-
Thanks Pappy, you are right about the rain. I can handle some rain just not the big flooding like last year. When it comes over a 4 lane Highway in a spot thats a mile from the river its kinda hard to get around.
Patrick
-
My bones are tellin' me sunny, warm, with light breeze.
-
I like you thinking Knoll. ;)
Pappy
-
I've got it on the 2018 schedule to make it! I came 2 years ago and met a lot of good people and had a blast.
-
Glad you plan on making it back, it is always a good time and you won't meet better folks anywhere. :)
Pappy
-
Well I'll likely be there for this.
Just got to figure out where to set up the mountain man campsite.
-
Mounting man ;) :) :) :) :) inside joke. ::)
Pappy
-
Looking forward to seeing everyone there
-
Jesse, it will be good to see you again. :OK
-
Counting on being there with a new camper.See how everything goes at work. since I mentioned the retirement word seems like everybody wants me to work.
-
This has become a “must do” for me, so you can look for me rolling down the hill mid week.
-
That is great Scott, always look forward to seeing you. Eddie what kind of camper did you get ???
Pappy
-
Pappy, can I reserve my same vendor spot behind the bow shop?
-
Don't squeeze out my little tent, Eddie. :o
-
It's about the same footprint as the Teardrop, Pat, just taller. Pappy, It's like a Scamp or Burro, a 1982 Fibreglass Uhaul. Only 2600 made in 82 and 83.
-
I think you posted pics of it earlier.
-
It's similar to the Badly Bent camper isn't it Eddie?
-
Yes, Sir, Clint.
-
Any one heard from Badly Bent lately ? Haven;t seen him around for a while. :-\
Pappy
-
Any one heard from Badly Bent lately ? Haven;t seen him around for a while. :-\
Pappy
Yeah he's around. He's busy making walking sticks and collecting pocket knives. We don't live too far from each other and text back and forth once in awhile
-
Good to hear Paul, kind of worried about him. Thanks. ;)
Pappy
-
Maybe he'll loan one to get up that $@(* hill.
-
Maybe he'll loan one to get up that $@(* hill.
Or you could get there earlier in the week and camp at the bottom of the hill ;D
-
Knoll may want to stay at the top, away from the rif raf at the bottom Clint. ;) :) :) Glad to hear Greg is doing well, just hadn't seen him on in a while. ;)
Pappy
-
Just put in a vacation request for this. I'm so pumped! Fingers crossed that I'll be able to make it this year!
-
Bring your psychiatry couch with you Ryan. We can keep you busy all weekend. :OK
-
That is great new Ryan, as Pat said we can keep you busy, pay may not be to good but you could sure stay busy. ;) :) :) Miss Joanie will be pleased to hear that you are hoping to make it , for some reason she has always been impressed with you and Cody, she thinks yall are great young men. ??? :-\ ;) :) :) :)
Pappy
-
Glad you are going to make it again Dr. Yoon.
-

once and awhile have to agree with Pat too ;)
Hope it works out for you Ryan ,hope you can get over to Marshall too
-
Great to hear Ryoon! Looking forward to see you there.
As usual Mark, the Wirwicki's will be pulling in on Saturday or Sunday before. Wee-Wicki is already talking about it. Him and Miss Heather were counting the days on our calendar. I've been working on bow blanks. I'll have my usual when we arrive. I'll also have some hickory blanks made up.
-
I'll be getting there around the same time Matt.
-
Not sure when I'll get there but it will be early. I can hardly wait.
-
I got the days I requested but now I'm considering asking for that Monday off too to make a whole week out of it! I can't wait! I need to get to work on something new to take down there!
-
Gotta love the yakkity buildup as date gets nearer and nearer.
-
We live for it, Knoll. ;)
-
That would be great Ryan, glad to here that Matt, Pat,Clint it has turned into a week event and I love that. :) I usually have a little more time to hang out the early part of the week and the guys that come early are always a big help. Thanks for that. ;) :)
Pappy
-
Glad you're going, Ryan, be great to see you again.
-
Hopefully I will have the new shop area up and ready,working on it this week, this should relieve some of the crowed conditions we always have on Friday and Saturday in the shop area, :-\ I plan on moving at least 4 or 5 work stations to this new area and should still have plenty of room for Matt for sure and maybe Clint's Stuff.. :)
Pappy
-
Ooh, that's going to serve us well, Mark. I've been working on blanks. I ought to have plenty to bring. Hickory, also.
-
New digs for you Matt. That'll be a nice addition. :OK
-
Dang it! Cant make this one this year but I will be saving up for next year. Has been way to long since I was back there with Pappy and the group.
-
Hope you can make it back some day Tiller. ;) Yes Matt/Pat it should give us a little more room but as I move stuff in I found I was already running out of room. ;) :)
Pappy
-
Won't be long now. Really looking forward to this years Classic. :OK
-
Me also Pat, from the response , looks like we will have a pretty good crowd the early part of the week. ;)
Pappy
-
Well I might be coming alone this year but I'll be there early the Saturday before as usual. Can't wait to see everyone.

-
16 more days for me!!!!
-
Ya it is closing in Bear, we started setting the ranges this weekend, we have over 100 targets to set not counting the practice range which will have close to 40 this year. We have most everything else about ready, well as ready as it can be. ;) :) See yall soon, really looking forward to seeing all my old friends. :)
Pappy
-
Less than 2 weeks to go for me. I did some electrical upgrades on the camper and did some tune up work on the truck. I'm ready for a great week with some.great people.
-
Kiddos are likely gonna find that creek's mighty chilly! But they likely won't care much.
-
Ya the kids don't seem to mind much Knoll, I know the craw fish and minnows are already going into their defensive mode. ;) :) Never know in Tennessee , it might be 80 and pretty or might be cold with snow. :) I am hoping for somewhere in between. ;)
Pappy
-
I'll be rolling in to Twin Oaks about noon on Monday, April 30. I'll be by myself. Bob McMinn can't come until Thursday but he said he coming.
-
I'm glad you are coming early Pat. I'll feed you one night early in the week.

Great news Pat, wished Bob was coming with you, he is my early early morning company ;) ;) Sounds like we will have a pretty good bunch by the end of next weekend, that's great but I may put some of you to work. ;) :) Hope to be finished up by then but as we all know stuff happens and all the guys say I will come up with something. See yall in a week.!!!

Hey guys. So, I recently was promoted to shop foreman at my job, which is great, except that it makes it very hard to take time off, especially in the beginning. So, as frustrating as it is, I won't be able to make the classic this tis time, however, the little lady and I will be at the Marshall shoot for sure👍
-
We sure will miss you Cody.
-
Congrats on the promotion Cody!!! Wished you could make it , but understand. :) We will miss you. ;)
Pappy
-
Will miss you and the Little Lady, for sure. See you at Marshall!
-
I am very sad to tell you folk this but I will not be making the Classic this year.
My Wife has developed health problems that require me to be off work twice a month and take her to have intravenous infusions.
So, my paid time off work has been cut down quite a bit in the last four months.
And I was so looking forward to it.........
David
-
Going to miss a bunch of people this year, I'll be there this Saturday morning sometime.
-
Prayers for your wife Dave 🙏
-
Sorry to hear about your wife, David and sorry you won't make the Classic this year. Maybe next year.
-

Yes, every day from sunrise until around 2 am or so.
-
Every day from sunrise to sunrise. (A)
-
Best wishes for your wife David. I hope to see you next year.
I was putting a coat of water sealer on the camper today and found a screw in one of the tires. I'm not sure if I should try to plug the hole or take it and have it patched from the inside. Or have the spare tire switched out on the rims. The hole is in the tread.
-
Sorry to hear that David, prayers for your wife. We will miss you. Clint I plug them all the time if the hole isn't to large and not in the sidewall. See yall in a few days. :)

What a great week at Twin Oaks. Thanks Pappy and club members for all the hard work you guys do to put on the Classic. It is greatly appreciated. And thanks to Orion Coolers for helping get Clay Hayes to the Classic. It was great to spend some time talking to him in the bow shop.
