Those were the best tenders ever.  I'm already looking forward to going back next year.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

WOW Dbar!  That is a wonderful bow.  The reflex in the unstrung profile is amazing.  I bet it'll really zip a light weight arrow down range. 

How long ago was the sinew set on the bow?  I'm wondering if it is likely to continue to gain poundage overtime...

Thanks Guys.....small token compared to the work the guys do to put this event on every year.  Just hope to keep it coming back year after year.

Eric, I put the sinew on mid December, and I have monitored the poundage,  and I have to say it has not picked up any weight at all....  I sinewed this bow in my basement which in the winter stays less than 20% RH.  And in six weeks the sinew was dry.  If I remember right about 900 grs of deer leg sinew.  again hasn't pick up a pound as far as I can tell....I've done a few sinewed backed bows at this time of year with the same results.

I have shot this bow a lot, and it really wings a light weight matching arrow.  Hope some sweet lady or a cute youngster ends up with it after Marshall...
Can't wait until then

Nice rig Bill, very cool of you to donate that set up.

I'm looking VERY forward to hanging with you boys again. I might even make a curl or two, who knows. Jeany and I should be around Wednesday afternoon.

If all continues to go smooth, I should be rolling in sometime Friday afternoon.  I can't wait, I've heard so many good things.  8)

Hey Guy was there something said last year about us having fires in the backfield? it was never a problem before but should we plan on bringing a pit with us?   for some reason I remember someone getting upset about us building fires on the ground

You will love it Aaron! Its an awesome event! The course is a lot like the one we shot last fall.  Great group and a beautiful place as well. Wish I could go this year.

We have one of those patio fire pits I can bring. Its not made for a roaring fire, but it can handle a decent size to cook on or sit around.

I think guy told me up front if you wanted a fire to dig it out then replace the sod when done. We didn't even bother starting one. I would like to get one of those patio ones like Pearl has. One of my cousins uses a old clothes washer drum at his property, works pretty good actually.
We're hoping to get there wen. but I'm getting further behind every day. Still cold and wet here. Had heavy frost again yesterday morning. The little bit I do have planted would rather be back in the seed boxes. Sure hope to get caught up, I don't want to miss this. The silver lining is my camper roof seem
weather tight.
