Title: Free selfbow building class
Post by: DVSHUNTER on June 23, 2024, 08:55:00 AM

Have you ever been interested in making your own bow? Have you ever wondered how cool ot would be to take an animal with something that you made? At this year's 25th annual mojam, there will be free bowmaking lessons from seasoned bowyers from all over. Almost everything you will need is there already. It's going to be hot. There is free ice. Primitive camping is free there to. I'll post a few pictures from previous years events.

Looks like fun, Dave. I've always wanted to make MoJam but never had the opportunity. It would be a 15 hr drive and being in Missouri in July, at 74 years old just doesn't compute these days. I hope it's a success like always and don't forget the pics.   :thumbsup:

Sorry, Dave but it won't happen this year. But when I do come I want the full MoJam experience. No ac for me.  :thumbsup:
It's still near the top of my bucket list.

I'm with Pat, always wanted to make it, seems it's always a very busy time of year for me, maybe one of these day before I get to old.

If you can that would be great. If not, there are plenty of spaces available.  All free. Camping, ice, lessons, 3d range. Come on if you can.
