It is sunday morning at WSR and it has been an awesome shoot so far. I managed to shoot all three corse yesterday. That is between talking to all the old friends and making a bunch of new ones. The weather has been really mess with sunshine in the mid 60 degrees, short periods of rain, and some hail here and there.
I am laying here in my sleeping bag listening to the Meadow larks as the sun is rising. The coyotes were howling all around camp last night. The shoot is set in a gorgeous area with rolling hills, with a mix of pines and oak with open meadows. We have seen deer, porcupine, ground squirrel, turkey, and a ton of other wildlife. The courses are set in a circle around camp with a lot of uphill and downhill shots.
There are 30 or so vendors here with everything an archer could want. Dan Toelke is here. This is the first time I have had had the pleasure of meetin Dan and shooting his bows. His bow are awesome and he is a true gentleman. I took a whip around the courses and they are smooth on the draw, dead in the hand, and have some serious speed. He gave me on of his new fuzzy tabs to shoot. They look crazy and have got to be one of the best tabs I have shot. My daughter morgan is looking to go up to legal hunting weight and is fluctuating backs nd forth between a Fox recurve and a Whip.
She will be shooting both today to try and make up her mind.
The Traditional Archers of Oregon put on an awesome
Shoot. Saturday they had a distance shoot, a packhorse and mule loading demonstration, and Larry D. Jones gave a slide presentation about hunting around the world which was great.
There are multiple dun shoots this weekend
, including a money shoot, a running deer shoot, the clanging bells of death shoot, etc...... I will be adding pics when i get home. Please forgive
The typos I hate texting.
