Thanks, Bear. Yep, they got the fever as bad as the rest of us...  ;D  One thing I can say is that no matter where you go, folks involved in primitive archery are some of the finest folks you will ever meet. Period.

Dusty, just one request! PLEASE....bring beer!!!! Don't get me wrong Miller is great once in a while, but....

A nice German Ale or Lager is like a piece of heaven in a glass!  ;D

Dusty,

If you can make it next year, I will do my best to get something as close to good German beer as possible. We can shoot a few Millers in between.... ;)

Marius,
I was able to bring some wine as a carry on a few years back, is beer different? You could carry a case on each shoulder and your hand bag strung around your neck...I fail to see the problem here! ;D

greg, they told me it's a (1) bottle of whatever you want to bring, be it wine, booze or wine.  now what in the world would i bring a bottle of beer for?  it wouldn't survive long enough to even get to customs  ;D

chad, i appreciate it, my friend.  i hear PBR is THE american beer and as close to german beer as it gets  ;D

Mike,

Yep, I am in Shawnee for the duration, I think. We like living on the lake, especially with the 10 nieces and nephews who come over to stay all the time. They all live in the city, so we have been teaching them strange things like running trot lines, planting gardens, and scraping bows. Poor kids will never be the same.... ;)

We will have to get together. There is a trad shoot coming up in July I thought about going to. A couple fellas from Tulsa that I hunted in Texas with last year gave me an invite.
