Its killing me not to be in this
I hate competitions but love showing what a selfbow can do to the gadget crowds
I am counting on you folks to pull out all the stops including actually getting out and practicing
Show the world what a PA really is

I hear ya Guy, Gary and Matt are supposed to make it and I know of several around the Club, we always have a good showing and some of them old boys can really shoot.

I hope to give it a try but it is hard for me while the event is going on to get time to even try and qualify. I have been shooting more and better lately so if I can work it out I may give it a go. $:-\$ Wished you could make it down, it's not exactly the same crowd as is at the Classic but still a very good bunch of folks that I really enjoy being around.[Well most of them but that is the same with anything you do]

I got Second Chance out after we cleaned up after the Cloverdale shoot and shot with the grandson on our practice course. Hopefully I won't embarrass you Pappy. Need to shoot a lot more before I get down there. Looking forward to it. See you in little over a month.

I really hope to get a chance to shoot in this, but of course duty comes first, if not I will at least get to see some great shooter and bows , showing folks what selfbows will do.

I've only shot in one shoot and kept score and that was the 1st Trad IBO world shoot. I made my first Osage self bow in a bow making class and a month later went to the shoot. I placed 2nd in the primitive class but you were allowed bamboo backed bows in those days. I was the only one shooting a true self bow on the final day. Just thought you'd like a little history.

Pappy · « **Reply #28 on:** July 26, 2017, 03:58:44 am »

It turned out great, we had 29 self bows guys, I was hoping for more but seems self bow folks don't like completion, not sure why but no matter it turned out well just the same, I will tell you that if anyone ever tell you self bows don't shoot well they should have seen these guys, you would have thought they had wheels and sights. would like to thank Arvin/CD archery and TwinOaks for sponsoring this great event. It was awesome to watch and have a part in ,Thanks.
