The best kept secret in Archery, is the Tennessee Classic. If it was to be put to a vote it would be unanimous, but I guess the secret it out because I saw shooters from the far North,to the extreme South and as far East and West as you can get, the bottom line is it just don't get any better. Thanks to Pappy who moves in so many directions that he must have a few clones. Greg B. said that he wasn't going to give as much detailed instructions as he did last year, that didn't work because he answered build questions in great detail, better luck next year Greg. The hands on instructions of Greg, Pappy and Anthony made it possible for a lot of us to take home great shooting bows that also look great. Oh yea cooking from early morning till evening was done by Grant (cast Iron) who put combinations together that would make Emerald  look like an apprentice. We can't forget Ron and a lot of others wonderful people who did many jobs that was done before we arrived, early in the morning and in the background, but you knew it when you shot one of the best set up competition courses around and saw your trash removed wile you were relaxing in your camp and many other things. I'll try to post some great Pic's in the next couple days. Thanks Thanks Thanks   (ching-ching)

Had a great time.
Visited Fort Donelson and Murfreesboro National Battlefields on Sunday.  Visit the Custer Battlefield on the Little Bighorn River if you get a chance.
Attached is a map I made of the courses using my gps handlheld. Fairly accurate, I think.
The short tangential lines show the walk to the targets.

Koan, I really enjoyed meeting you and Auggie, and  I haven't forgot you mentioning them Missouri gobblers too. Some day I would love to call one in for you.  As you could probably tell, I like it pretty good ;D

  Auggie, my wife said you kept her in stitches, every time I saw you ya'll were talking, hmmm, ;) Brian, let the sawdust fly on that rocket launching Friendship bow. I think you are the only person that has been working on one.Man, when we started talking, seemed like we new each other for along time.  Shannon, I'd love to slide you through these swamps for an Osceola. I hope you can get down here, I'm sure we'll have fun. Thanks for the gift I took home. It's in the freezer.

Eddie, you just don't know how much I would like that ;D ;D ;D
 Pat, I wondered where that went. I owed you that anyway and besides I got all I wanted for the rest of my life in about a three hour time. Enjoy!  Saw Filer
