WOW, there seems to be some interest in this...and I'm very pleased with that. Thank you for the support guys.

I did some lookig at Compton's this weekend, and there are some VERY beautiful arrows out there that guys are target shooting with.

The best part of the whole thing is that our sports future is benefiting from this by donating back to the PBS youth hunt.

I thought I would bring this back to the top so those of you who are wondering what to do in all this heat, can get started. If anything (for me) it's going to be fun just being included in the contest. I'm sure there are going to be some very beautiful functional pieces of art.

Don't forget, this is an ANY material arrow contest. We want anyone and everyone who makes their own arrows to be included. That also means that if you want to use footed shafts, you don't have to be the one doing the footing. Call up one of the TG sponsors who make them and buy some from them, you know...let's try to help as many people with this as we can. It's only fair, if guys can buy carbon and aluminum, why should you not be able to buy footed wood? Every little bit counts, and most importantly, you got to have fun while doing it.

Hmmm I would have thought that was cheating, but when you put it that way, most folks shooting wood buy their shafts from someone else anyway.

I just might need to make a few arrows after all...

Everyone must be busy putting together their best creations, so I thought I would bring this up again to promote a great contest. I hope to see as many of you in it as possible. Thunk of the bragging rights, not to mention the awesome prizes that accompany the winners. We also added another award to thighest ranking MLA member, so there is another incentive to get involved. Good luck to everyone.
