looking forward to it. if we want to make a self bow, can we bring our own stave or do we buy one? cam we use a generator with our campers?

Eddie

From: Clydebow
Date: 09-Jan-14




Pappy, Nancy and I will be there! Of course we will be there for the Spring Opener first! We don't have to plan on coming, it's a given!

eddie c, people do use generators. Unfortunately, unlike myself and a couple friends that camp together and have nice quiet generators that we also try to position to help lessen noise even more, some people don't seem to mind bringing ones that sound like a Model T with no muffler.

From: eddie c
Date: 09-Jan-14




Clydebow, I understand about the noise. unfortunately I don't have a Honda genie but I don't have a model T either. I am in the process of making a sound box to cut the noise. my wife has issues when the temps are high, only reason I would bring it.

From: Sipsey River
Date: 09-Jan-14




Mine is more like an airplane than a model T. I plan to set up right beside Clydebow! If I keep him up all night I might have a chance to out shoot him!

From: falcon
Date: 09-Jan-14




I am looking to camp maybe for the week if thats ok, need to build another bow with Gary Davis I donated the one I built before to the Red River meeting house auction. I need one to keep and pass on to my daughter or grand daughter.

From: Pappy
Date: 10-Jan-14




Cool,yes you can run genarators but just be as curtious as possiable.Eddie you can bring your own stave,no problem.Looking forward to seeing yall.By the way Clyde the open shoot is March 15/16 Looking forward to seeing you and Nancy.Maybe you can give me some more shooting lessons.falcon I will be there all week so anytime is fine,last year we had several come in on the Sat. and Sunday before.The practice range will be open and the shop in full swing if you are interested in bow building.

Are there staves for purchase for the Ultimate selfbow challenge?

Also, is there an alternative to camping? Nearby lodging?

Thank you.

From: Jon Stewart

If you have never been to the Classic, you need to go.

Bow building, flint knapping, shooting courses, spending money with vendors, camping and two very nice hosts.

UrbanDeerSlayer: I never seen so much osage for sale in one place as I did last year at the Classic.

From: JustSomeDude

From: Pappy
Date: 10-Jan-14

We attend a lot of shoots every year and there are good people everywhere. Can't say as I could think of one not to go to, but if you could only go to one.....Twin Oaks is a Very beautiful site for an event! Very genuine and helpful group of people putting this on too. This is not the biggest shoot of the year and certainly not small. I would say it is just right. They have great targets and enjoyable ranges on top of all the other nice things that will be said about them. I would be absolutely crushed if we ever have to miss this.

See Ya'll soon guys..and thanks for everything!

Folks, Pappy and the Twin Oaks crew have people at Twin Oaks all week leading up to the three day event, building bows and having a great time.

If you've never made this event or if you have and know someone you're trying to get involved in traditional archery. Get them here!

Terry Harris

From: Pappy
Date: 21-Jan-14




Thanks Terry,appreciate that. J.Compliment it depends on what kind of wood you want. It cost 20.00 to register then what every wood you want. If you bring your own wood 20.00 is all it cost. Stave's usually run from 50.00 to 150.00. Hope you can make it. Some think it is only for selfbows guys and bow building but that is just a small part of the event,lot of glass folks there and a really good competive course along with a nice 20 target practice course for all that register to use all they want. Lots of good vendors also. Pappy

I just overhauled the motor on my old pick up and am thinking of making the drive this year. I could save $1,000 or more by flying but I just hate not having my own vehicle. A few of my old high school buddies moved to Tennessee years ago and it would be nice to drop in and visit them as well.

From: Pappy

Great Kevin,talked to Rocky yesterday and he said yall were coming fomr the great state of MI.Got a few gifts for yall when you arrive.Clyde I got it. Just FYI for folks coming early to get a good camping spot,please only use what you need,it gets pretty full and we want the ones that show up early to get their pick of spots,no ropeing off large areas for ones that show up late in the week.Thanks,also we get a lot of request about dogs,we do allow them[for now] but PLEASE keep them on a leash and under control and clean up behind them.I love dogs and don't want to have to stop letting folks bring them along but also don't want them to mess up everyone else fun.So on a leash/clean up after them and please keep the quite at night.If you have a dog that you can't do that with please reconcider bringing them along.See yall in May. Pappy

From: THarris
Date: 31-Jan-14




What Pappy said about dogs, I concur and have asked the same at my events

I'm a HUGE dog lover, but it's no fun to step in a mess that someone's too lazy to clean up behind their pet. Even if they think, oh it's alright because they're in the woods. Well, when we're lookin' for lost arrows, that's exactly where we're goin'.

My two cents, Pappy.

Hey Pappy, I'm planning to come again this year. Last year I had a bit of an intense time finding Twin Oaks because I come from the NORTH on I-24. I gave my GPS what information I could find and got there.

It would be great to have a map on the website, or at least directions from the north. But I'm sure I can find the spot again.

Jim (The Reparrow man)

From: eddie c

Jim, don't do what I did last year. when I left Twin Oaks my Navigator(wife) let me take a wrong turn and we got to see an extra hour of country side before I got straighten out. :)

From: Trad*Girl

Went for a walk yesterday morning. Heard a gobble, and then a hen. Found an old home site. Saw a hen, and found a nest with what looked like around 10 eggs. Backed off so not to disturb her. Caught up to a guy walking out the camp road by our camper with a long beard over his shoulder.
