Thanks Paul/Terry , Marsha there is no charge but we stay full so if you are interested in setting up I would need to know what size area you have/what you sell and then see if I have room. We stay booked most of the time but some fall out for one reason or the other and we fill it with others.We don't try and have the most vendors but we try to keep quality ones that lets all the folks that come fill there needs plus helps the vendors do good by not having a lot selling the same stuff.

I bet you can Eddie. That's some pretty stuff Marsha, I will let you know as soon as I get it all figured out. We are getting lots of vendor request and I am slowly contacting the regulars to see who is and is not planning on coming as soon as I get that info I will let you know. We usually have a few that will drop out each year and we fill with others waiting.Good problem to have I guess but gets tough to figure out sometimes. Pappy

I have been strictly a selfbow shooter for the last 4 years. If I were to try to make the Classic or the IBO worlds which would you recommend. If I can, I could only make one or the other. Long way from Kansas and expensive, and no paid vacation.

In my opinion, if you could only make one, make it to the Twin Oaks Classic.
I love them both and the IBO Trad. World is an outstanding event, but because there's so many self bow shooters and new self bow makers, making their own self bows, you really want to be there then.
You can go wrong either way, plus there are many more Vendors.
If I'm not mistaken there were well over 650 shooters at the Classic last year and the weather was absolutely perfect.

We had a good self bow turn out for the IBO world last year and I feel like it will be even better this year,Not sure it will every match the TN. Classis in that regard. We had over 90 built last year in the self bow challenge and 75/80 in the normal self bow class, it was getting close to the Long bow numbers as far as shooters go.Recurve is still by far King in numbers and probably always will be. If you like to see a lot of self bows it would be hard to beat the Classic, if you want to compete with some world class Self bow shooters then the IBO world might be a better choice even though we have some mighty fine shooters at the Classic. Decisions decisions. Pappy

I just renewed my interest in traditional last winter (Longbow). If at all possible I am hoping to attend. What about tent camping? Cost? My wife is a non shooter but excellent in photography & attends sometimes just to take photos & then make albums & share for all the archers on the net.. She went to the NFAA Nationals with me last July & made many archers happy with photos they could take off her posting. Anyway, I'm looking forward to this gathering if nothing happens between now & then..

Mike the address is 1079 Ashley rd. Chapmansboro, TN. 37035.Might try GPS or map quest if you have that. I would say you would come in I40 to Nashville, TN.and then 24w out toward Clarksville, TN. /Fort Campbell,ky. We are west of Nashville about 30 + miles. off I24 at exit 19 We have lots from that area so maybe someone will chime in with better directions. John we have lots of tent campers, no hook up but water and fire wood on site, no charge and you wife we be very welcome. Ya Roger lots of history around that area. Paul hope to see you maybe in a few weeks at our first shoot, maybe pick out a stave.Directions from Nashville are on our new web site. [Twinoaksbowhunters.org] Pappy

In my opinion, you won't find a better group of people that are organized, family oriented, fun loving and have a mission to make sure that your visit is worth the trip to the Twin Oaks Classic.
Pappy's only problem has been getting folks to leave, LOL.
NOW, leave the "about convinced" out and just put "CONVINCED" in your mindset.

Sorry, do have another question. Are there arrow restrictions for the different bow classes, and could I shot same selfbow in longbow or recurve class? What type of scoring is done. 12,10,8,5,0, or kill, wound, or miss. Thanks.

Yes I have several that stay over Sunday and leave Monday, I will be there so that is fine. No arrow restriction except for selfbow, then it has to be wood /Cain. We have a self bow class but if you want to shoot it in longbow that's fine, you can always move up A class with what some may call lesser equipment LOL. Score is center 11/10/8/5/x and yes you will be welcome around the camp fire for sure. Pappy

We had some trouble wit dog last year so I will be posting on another thread what will be allowed this year, I know it's a can of worms but something that needs to be addressed so we don't have any mix up or the problems we had last year. Like kids, seems everyone think's there dog is well behaved. Pappy

I thought I told you I was making room K.C.?? Of course I have slept since then.LOL Vendors are about my biggest head ache, not the vendors themselves, I love our vendors, we have some of the best in my humble opinion,they add so much to the event but just figuring out where I am going to put them and keeping up with how many we have coming. I have lots of request and limited space for them so it is a constant juggling act for me and Miss Joanie, but we always, some how get it worked out. Looking forward to meeting you K.C. Pappy

I think we had 35 last year and that is about our limit.Most come ever year but when the don't we fill with others that have been waiting, should be about the same this year. Good vendors that you can fill most any Traditional/primitive need. I think you will enjoy, it is like a Traditional shoot/gathering/rendezvous all rolled up into one event. Pappy

You can only shoot the competition rang once per registration. You don't have to keep score if you don't want to. You can shoot the practice all you want after you register. I think I know what you are asking Harold, you can't shoot the main cores over and over for fun, unless you register in another class, some shoot it in Long bow/Recurve and selfbow but you must register for each. By the way we do have a nice practice course you can shoot you arm off on it. Pappy

Clyde, thanks for the response. Make no mistake, its not for me......can't abide the setups! :o) But, I think what is confusing us is the event on the twin oaks website only says recurve, longbow, selfbow. Of course, those could just be generalizations of categories. Julie and I were there a couple years ago and I just cant remember what all categories there were. We sure do look forward to making it to our 2nd Classic. Definitely a good time! Regards

Clyde I will dump you a load of mulch at you camp site.

Some get there the earlier part of the week,you will get a lot of help and advice if you need it but not like a school. I will say the earlier the better, after Friday morning we don't usually take on any more and it gets really busy in the shop area. We built over 90 bows out of the shop last year. Looking forward to seeing you Clint, got your spot ready and waiting. Pappy

Hey Pappy. any idea how long it would take to get from LBL to your place? I can't get off work that week and by the time I get there on Friday afternoon I'm afraid you wont have any camper spots left. the nearest campground I can find is LBL.

It is a pretty good ride, I think about 70 miles. What time do you think you will be there, I feel sure we can find you some place to camp, may not be in your regular spot but somewhere. Pappy

that 70 miles is half of what it is from my house. I don't have any clue what time we could possibly get there. I'm thinking about just throwing my tent in the back of the truck, sleeping in it on Saturday night and leaving the wife at home. we'll make it work somehow. thanks.

"Sounds like a plan Eddie but the better half might not be to happy about that.LOL Pappy " she isn't happy about missing the trip. I tried talking her into letting me drop her off the weekend before and I come back and get her the next weekend but she didn't go for it. LOL. it's just a timing thing due to Mother's Day. we will survive.

Heck Kurt, the open easy shots are the ones I miss,lol. I grew up shooting thru the holes in the brush, but will shoot them all, even try my luck on the steel fox. Being 11 or 12 hours from home just want to bring enough arrows to last 3 or 4 days. Been to some shoots with some pretty crazy shots and I am just crazy enough to waste a few arrows in fun. Counting the days.

Shouldn't have a problem with arrows, we try and set targets up with some type of back stop if we can , you may have to lean or squat a little but most shots will be hunting range and at least a good hole to shot through, if you can fine it. LOL I just looked at the range set up list and there will be lots of large stuff, Moose/Elk/Boo/Buff/bear and such. May be a Turkey or 2 thrown in for good measure.I will guarantee it will be a fun range to shoot, the practice will also be set up nice, we already have most of it done, just needs a little markings and tweaking.

Ya we are hoping for good weather , but you never know about that. We have been working in preparation for rain as it seems it always does so we try and get ahead of the game if we can. We also laid out the ranges Saturday and hauled the targets to the woods and have the trophies ready to put together ,done a lot more clean and straighten so things are beginning to come together. We have a meeting and working this coming weekend to put the final touches on things. We always have a bunch come in early so we try and be ready at least a week in advance. See yall in a few weeks.

I pulled out the tent when I got home , looked at the sun and thought' uumm, 30 minutes to sunset. I wonder if I can put it up before dark?'. And the challenge began. Sine I probably won't get there until after 6 on Friday I wanted to see if I could remember how. 15 minutes after the sun set I was walking in the house. Told my wife it was a tad bigger than I remembered. Then she said 'yep, I might go with you after all'. :> o First time the tent had been set up since before 2003. I was surprised it didn't rip.

Lots of folks that come and stay all week have special camp dishes they bring but anything is welcome, we usually feed 500 or so and with the help we get from yall we always manage to get every one full. Except maybe Big Jim. LOL We close the concessions at 3pm Saturday and have the raffle drawing and pot luck at 6pm if all go according to plan. Pappy

Got here this morning and set up camp. Friends Eric and Angie arrived a couple hours later to set up. For dinner, Eric cooked a pork loin over an open fire, and Angie made mixed vegetables and mac&cheese. So of course, I ate with them. Took a walk right before dark, and Angie found two mushrooms. We will be heading back there tomorrow morning after it gets light to see if we are luck enough to find more.
Brian, I am set up at my usual spot next to the creek bridge at the far end of the road with my Clydebow sign on my easy-up. Will be heading home Wednesday morning, and come back Thursday evening with wife and grandson.

Went for the day yesterday. Shot with Dan and Charlie from Kentucky and we had a blast. Everyone was as nice as could be and I've never been around so much traditional gear. Wish I had more time to check out the practice range. Already looking forward to next year! Didn't even lose or break any arrows!
Also nice to meet you Pappy!

Made it back to Kansas last night, and spent Monday getting everything cleaned up and put away. Finally taking time to say, Thanks to Pappy, Miss Joanie, and the entire Twin Oaks crew. I really enjoyed myself and met a lot of new friends. Picked up some good points watching everyone build their selfbows,and really enjoyed the course. Hospitality was truely exceptional. This was my first classic, and I would rate it with the best of the shoots I have attended in the past. Thanks again to everyone. Brian

Wow Pappy y'all had a ton of targets up for the classic! Good to see y'all adding even more :)
Kurt, I did not get to shoot my longbow. Was planning to shoot it Sunday but had trouble finding a group to shoot with. Was waiting on some friends, but with a 10 hour drive back home I couldn't wait all day lol I shot well with my recurve on Saturday, but had to leave way before the awards ceremony Sunday to get home at a decent time so my son could be ready or school Monday. Congrats on a good round with your longbow. I hope to make it for the IBO shoot in July.
