I'm a newbie so I don't know how much he gets around.  He was at the trad archery expo, hosted by The Bowyer's Journal, last spring in Wheeling, WV.  I'm guessing he will be at the same trad archery expo this spring, except it will be in St. Clairsville, OH, right off I-70, instead of in Wheeling.  I hope I'm right.

I think he will be at the Compton rendezvous this June. I'm sure someone will know the dates and other details.

I have met Fred a couple times.  Ran into Fred at the "Widow Works" a year ago and got to spend sometime talking to him.  Very nice gentleman.  And I have one of the wool shirts his wife makes, it is one of my favorite piece of hunting gear.

Where is the Florida shoot?  I did a search and found a web site that doesn't look like it had been updated in a couple of years.

Ill be there Greg. I am looking forward to meeting him and yourself in person.
p.s.
You need to check out the hunting lease in Bronwood for next year. It keeps getting better and better and we'll be a couple of members short.
