I went some years back. I did learn things about my form or lack of. I liked the way G Fred took us aside on a one-on-one basis to explain how we could do better. I also learned about tuning arrows from Ken Beck. You can read about it all day but doing it with him was the best. Of course trying out a whole bunch of bows was a blast as well.

I learn by doing also.  I've read his book, years ago, and learned a lot that way.  But I think I would benefit from some one on one and visual instruction.  Thanks!

Anyone else?

Time spent in G. Fred's company would be worth the price of admission.

Truly one of the great contributors to our bowhunting heritage..

I went some years ago, and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.  Black Widow bows was an outstanding host, and no one should pass up the opportunity to meet and learn from Fred Asbell and Ken Beck.  I believe there are more accurate shooting methods than that taught by Fred, but he will teach you a method that is quick and effective for hunting in wooded areas where shooting opportunities may be fleeting and generally are at closer ranges, frequently with tree limbs or other obstacles requiring greater flexibility than the more accurate methods would accommodate.  I have used the arrow tuning method taught by Ken Beck ever since the class, and have never found anything better than the method he taught.
