markinengland:
Just a little note to remind any British primitives that we have a little bow-in type event at Holmbush NFAS club site on Friday 6th through to the Monday 9th. Any questions email me at markdesignhill@aol.com
Likely to be a very small event but we have to start somewhere. Camping, camp fires, people making stuff, trading and doing a lot of talking, maybe some synchronised beer drinking events.

Roger:
I've been wondering how things have caught on with the primitive bows Mark at the primitive class get togethers. Are the people responding well to the imposed rules for the meets. Has the turnout been good so far?

Just curious...

markinengland:
Primitive archery is still very very small here. I have met about a dozen people who have made primitive bows, though quite a few people are interested. In my case there is one other club member I meet up with regularly who makes primitive stuff. I guess some people shoot their bows and may not meet other primitive archers. I am not sure how many are turning up at open shoots, as family stuff means I do not get to thse much.
So far I haven't heard of discontent about the rules for the class, but no doubt we didn't please everybody. The next AGM in the winter may see some change or comment.
It'll be interesting to see who comes this weekend as this is our first meet since the rules were set up. At least there are now a set of guidelines within which people can make and shoot stuff and be covered by NFAS insurance.
