Looks great Bob!
Yeah John made one a while back.  I would love to see how close they all match to mine next year. 
I am sure looking forward to seeing everyone again in July!

Well my pictures will have to wait until after the race. I hop on the mighty MO Tuesday morning. I plan on posting my pics while I recover over next weekend. I miss all you guys already. This past mojam was a special one for me. Seeing all you in tie dye almost brought tears out of me. I have never been so accepted and welcomed by any other group of people. I gladly spend my time down under the shade helping peopke, and hoping that my enthusiasm will rub off onto the new guys and we can pass on this wonderful thing we call Mojam. I want to say thanks to Patrick for finding and restoring my new camping stove! Mr. Neil Young for taking me and picking me up on my river run, and also sharing all your info, not to mention some room on the smoker. Paul and no nose for the two amazing blades. I can't wait to skin my elk this year! Eric for the tie dye! Laura for the cookies. :) Greg and Gail for feeding me and the kids. Dan for the shirts. Tim for my beautiful morel.  Jon for the sassafras I made the little bow from. Brent for the trade that got me the bow sock and points, Andy for coming to the event and getting my special order stuff and also my super cool tie dye bow sock. Mike for all the kids necklaces. Keith, Jerry, Robin, and the rest of Marshall Bow hunters for letting us live in your world and taking care of us. Terry for the ice! Bob for being so nice to a new guy almost ten years ago and getting me absolutely hooked. And also to Dave, the first guy to spend the entire time helping others. If it wasn't for him that first year, I might not have had the passion I have for passing it on now. Also to everyone there, thanks for just being there. Despite the heat we all come back because the magic of mojam, the excitement of seeing everyone come together with a common idea. That keeps me coming back. I hope to see you all again next year!

Guy, that's what Marshall felt like to me and the kids. That's the closest I've been to mojam. Those two events are on the list. Your jug shoot was a great time at mojam. Me and the kids are looking forward to seeing you all again next year!

Dave,  now that's how to discribed mojam brother! Very well put,  I don't want to just jump on your coat tails but,  ME TO!  :laugh:
I think I can speak for everyone when I say that.

I hope you get some good use out of that camp stove bud.  I know you have wanted one for a while, and a vintage one is always better! Im glad you like it bud.  Good luck and well wishes on the 340!

We all feel the same way Dave. It was great to meet you at Marshall. Be careful on the mighty Mo. I just watched the news and it looks like some flash flooding there if I got it right. See you again

No doubt about it, Dave wrote a fine essay on the Spirit of MoJAM, it is why we gather, every year in mid July.

The Marshall Bow Hunters have welcomed us with open arms for nearly 20 years.

We've found kindred spirits and a place to come together, to learn the way of the bent stick and the feathered shaft, and comradeship that comes from learning the old ways and testing the limits in new ways.

I'm truly grateful for being able to be a part of the MoJAM family.

Amen...

Andy,  I did see Wyatt helping his friend.  Its always good to see someone like him so enthused. And to see him passing on what he has learned to someone else makes me feel like a proud poppa!
