 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

 Ya Eddie ,Bill is always hard at it doing something. ;) Looks like more rain headed our way, I am trying to get the gutters repaired on the bow work shop before it hits again, guess I better get at it hard today. Not sure it is ever going to quite raining,but as my old Uncle use to tell me "guess it will sometime  :-\ at least it always has before."  :)

Looks like a great time again! I'm planning on being there for the Classic next year. I always enjoy coming here and seeing what everyone is up to.

Ya Ed, it is a nice way to spend the day. ;) Tiller I hope it works out, love to see ya again. :)Been to Nashville already this morning to pick up a load of drinks/water and supplies for the Classic, left here at 2am and back by 4:30, felt like old times. ;) Now rain again today so I plan on spending some time in the new bow shed closing in one end. Got the frame work put up yesterday, now time for planking and strips. ;)

Be great to see you David and your new Bride. Maybe with Pappy's blessing we might be able to get you on a bird this time.

I just acquired a bit of johnstone myself.  Found it parked on the side of the road next to the dump.  Any advice on how to knap it?

Not from me Jeffp , but maybe some of the folks that do the Thunder chert challenge at the Classic will chime in, they make some exceptional points out of it. ;) :) Still raining and looks like it is going to do it all day once again.  :(

Good Friday and headed to the cabin for a day or 2, the rain is finely gone so maybe I can get some outside projects done. I have a couple of bows I have been working on the last few day in the shop that need some attention but if it is nice I am sure I will be outside. Hope yall all have a Blessed Easter and please remember what it is all about. ;) :)[not bunnies and eggs] Life is Good. :)

Thanks Matt,we had a good one and hope yall did. Got a lot done at the Club Friday and Saturday also. I got some new gutters put up in the bow shop and others repaired and a few leaks fixed on the roofs. We also got the new tiller board almost ready to put up and the end closed in on the new shed. I even managed to get a little bow work done, got a couple tweaked and ready to start tillering, so good weekend for sure. Here are a few pictures. Material for the new building and Margaret Ann's new bow on the form. A little r/d for when she get 36 inches tall.  ;) :)
