Yes Lennie, that was my daughter that hit the cat in the tail. I was very proud of her and am very happy that she enjoys shooting with me. She really likes that snake backed,osagebow "Thumper" that she was shooting in the clout shoot. That quiver is for her, she just don't know it yet. (I have a nice quiver comming from Shell) She was pretty bummed that she was bumped out of the final 10. She did get another opportunity to better her shot when Jason Westvang gave her his last six shots (he did'nt need to shoot them since he already had one just outside the 8 ring!) The Westvangs are some top notch folks and Jason showed that again in doing that for Amanda. I'm hoping I will be able to talk her into making a bow herself in the future.......Terry

Thank all of you who helped put this together, if it weren't for all of you I would not have a new bow to shoot that I made. Thank al those that volunteered their weekend to help those like me to make a bow, there are so many that did so. Thank you Doug for making this event possible at your BEAUTIFUL property, it was very nice. My wife really likes your LAKE. Thank you Ralf, I used your tools to make my bow, next year I will come prepared. Thank you Mike Yancy, you helped me finish out this bow. Thank you Chad for all your help. I hope everyone knows the title of this thread is just to get a rise out of everyone. OJAM was unbelievable, I went their with the goal of coming out with a bow. Did not know how much work was involved, now it is amazing to know that I did. I will see you all next year.

My only complaint about Ojam is that I had to work and couldn't get there until Friday night.  They should make this a national holiday so all can attend all 4 days.  Great event!!!

Sounds like you all had a blast! I haven't made it to a 'jam YET, but I spent the better part of a year in Tulsa and sure did meet alot of fine people and some mighty fine shooters as well! Mike

JMAR,
 It was nice to see someone as excited about making a bow as you were and to do the work yourself! Many want to have someone do it for them then sand a little on it and say they made it, but you can say you made that bow. Gteat job and good luck on the next one.

This was my first time time at OJAM, had a great time, I will be back.
Started my first ever osage bow, thank you to Mike and Jason W. They helped all the way, including some of the manual labor. Their guidance was priceless.

John,

Glad to see the bow turned out so well for you, and that we were able to get that twist on the end taken care of. Ain't nothing like the first one!
Shoot Straight,
Chad K. Slagle
