Thank you to all of you who helped put this shoot on.  This was my first ever Mojam.  I saw a lot of familiar faces and a lot of new ones.  I was welcomed to the Mojam family like I had been going for years.  I expected this trip to Mojam to be a one time deal.  However it didn't take me long to start making plans for next year.  As a wise man once said, "I dun had a real good time"

For all the talk about the heat I didn't think it was too bad. The monsoon golf adventure was something I'll never forget.  I think someone said we got over 2" of rain in 30 minutes.  It's the first time I've had to wade through 12" of water just to get my clubs out of the cart.

Thanks to all of you who shared some food.  Neal put my leftover deer marinade on some wild turkey and wrapped it in bacon.  That was about the best food I've ever tasted. 

The flight shoot was interesting.  It got my wheels turning.  I think I have the room to do some testing at home.  Here is Danznbar launching an arrow with Scott, Aaaaron, and Badger watching.  Badger displayed why he earned that name.  He ripped his arm open on a dry fire and was bleeding pretty good.  He kept shooting and making it worse.  He finally washed it off with gatorade and taped a score card over it so he could keep shooting.  He is one tough dude.




Here is Scott, aka Mr. 214  ::)  dry firing his bow. 




Somehow it held together and he did pretty good with it.  The shutter speed makes his bow look wonky. 




Bow Ed seeing how his bow performs.  This was the first time I've met Ed.  It was a pleasure to do some trading and swapping stories with you.




DVS helped me make one of his signature tie dye shirts.  Thanks my Missourah brother.




I made a trade offer on this little sweet heart of a dog.  The owner wouldn't let her go.




Wyatt learning how to chew sinew for a wrap job. 




I got to visit with 2 guys who where a huge help to me when I first got started making bows.  Mickey "The Ferret" and Steve "Badger".  I was able to get a signed Floppy Ruler in the auction.  Here is a picture of me and Badger.




Bow Ed accepting his trophy for the laminated flight shoot.  His horn bows were very cool.  There were a lot of special moments during the awards and auction. 




A big thanks to the atlatl guys who loaned me there equipment and helped me out.  I participated in a ISAAC event and managed to score a few points.  Ed sent me this picture he took of me throwing. 

I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

Great pics, Clint. Thanks!

Noted and revised. Thanks.

Great pictures guy's! I always like going through all the pictures after mojam.  It shows just whats going on throughout camp and how many special moments and such that you didn't know about or had missed. 

And to quote nonose,  "I will sleep when I die"!

Building a bow has been the most rewarding, peaceful, and frustrating things I have ever made with my own two hands!
