This should be a good weekend for photos. We done a lot of work over at the farm preparing for the IBO. We got the courses weedeated, limbs cut back and targets set out. We had a lot of fun and worked hard as well. This is going to be a great shoot so I hope you all make.

Thanks Jimmy,them are cool.  Yes we did have a good one.it is all coming together ,I worry a lot but really have no reason,these guys are great and always come through,even tho sometimes it is at the last minuet. Had a lot of good friends and like Jimmy said,we play hard,but we also work hard. Here are a few pictures of the fun. We even had a little time to shoot. Me and KingRon getting his grandkids equipement ready to shoot,them kids love this stuff.

Forgot,lunch for Sat.  Jimmy and me were on the ranges ,weedeating and cleaning limbs,had 80 new McKenzie's targets come in,you don't realize how many that is until you see them coming off the hill in a tractor trailer,all the guys jumped in and made short work of getting them put together and set out on the ranges. All the little one want to do is shoot,thats OK ,there time to work will come soon enough.

Hey Twin Oaks looks like yall been havin a good time. Wish I was still in the area so I could swing by and shoot a few with yall. I've been straightening some cane for arrows and finally gettin around to thinkin about how I want to put a leather handle on that bow all yall helped me build. Also thinkin about harvestin some osage off my grandpa since I got a long weekend comin up so I've been browsing the forums for advice.... Anyone got any other pointers?

[Pappy]

Man,good to hear from you,I guess you ant coming back to TN.  :(We have missed your company.
Stay in touch. Just look for as clean ,straight,knot free as you can find,it all has some but look for the best before you start cutting.Good luck and let me know how it goes. You really ought to wait till it get hot before you start.
