Thank you Knoll I'm really hoping at least my one cousin makes it he's been collecting artifacts most of his life he'll be like a kid in a candy shop. He also loves to play guitar around campfire if you guys do that. The last time we went camping together we meet a couple that sang and played banjo man that was a good time.

I'm just looking on my google maps and it's showing a field by a house south of what looks like a race track is that in the right area?

I just looked myself,  I think that's the pavilion but not positive. I've never been there either.

The pavilion is by the lake and castle.  The field with the old house is where we set up camp. 


Hey guys, I cut some more of that honeysuckle today.  Who all wants to try it out?  I need to know how much to bring.  It's not the straightest or longest bow wood.  Some pieces would work great for a take down or splice.  I've never used it but I've heard it makes a good bow.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

I'd maybe try some Osage. I'd like to get some different bow wood especially some Osage preferably seasoned. I cut some nice HHB yesterday carried it up a 29' cliff that pertty well did me in. I didn't get it split yet but hoping to split and bring some for trade. I got some Red Oiser for Guy also.

If you are south of Marshall  and east of the Eaton proving grounds you are in the right area

Clint, I'd try some honeysuckle as well. Never did a billet bow, figure its worth a shot.
