Brandon, there were several people buying the myrtlewood including some bowyers like Blacktail, Stalker, and Robertson. I got a great piece that has some good dark streaks and is fiddlebacked.
Yeah, the site is down. Probably be up soon.

The banquet, and the entire gathering was FANTASTIC!
Gene Carroll has done yeoman's work on the ground here. It was so nice to visit with the "western" guys like Walt Francis, David Lawson, and Doug Borland. I had the EXTREME honor of dining last night with a few more western gentlemen; Lon Scott, Daniel Russell, and Ben Pinney, his wife Amy and baby Brooks! PBS family is wonderful

I live a ways off the main trails... and like others, time is a little short this year and money even shorter, LOL!

I spent some time with Irwin talking about his wood. He can accompany most any needs concerning myrtle wood.

Sounds like great fun. Next time around I'll be retired & present. Anxiously waiting for more pictures.
OH Snag, That myrtle doesn't have to be all for the bowyers. One hunk would sure make up quite a few knife handles. Contact info would be appreciated...tippit

BRANDON that was a sweet bow you donated! I loved it! I went to 700 on it and then the guy I was sitting with "don" bought it. I also took that blacktail bow up there. What a great bow you made! I was trying to add it to my collection!
I bought a bow from south! Hell of a nice guy and makes some wicked bows! WOW! I bought the bow from him and he was off to the races to get more chunks of the wood and he boosted his bid on that wood in the silent auction. That chunk was a beauty!
What a great time with some great people. A lot of money was raised for the group and it was a great time!
I also scored the amazing deal on that green action wood bow from greg. It won the amature recurve class as well. Heck of a bow.
