MoJam in Marshall, MO and Primitive Archery Rendezvous in Marshall, MI and TN Classic near Clarksville, TN are all a hoot. All feature bow building. But each is unique in many ways.
I'm lucky to be able to enjoy all of 'em each year. Those not so fortunate could do worse, imo, than make visits in revolving years.

My mistake.  I was thinking this was the Classic thread.  Marshall Michigan is a great shoot too.  Lots of bow building goes on there.

Pretty much what you would use at home. There may be a few extra benches but you can never tell. A bench vise and a couple of C clamps would work good. If you don't have wood there may be someone there with some.

Missouri, where all the best wood is! Well maybe not the straightest!

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!

Dave, when are you planning on leaving? I may be able to come this year. Depending on when I can leave.

I have an 8 x 8 Outback Lodge tent you can borrow if you make it happen, Patrick. More leg room than my backpack tent has :)

Sharon,
Were you the ones with the new dog last year that was afraid to come out of the trailer? If so, we were just talking about him the other day wondering how he was doing. You guys were doing such a great job with him.
