I'll be there first week and for my third straight year adventure with the greatest bear guide ever: Tom "ImDiablo" Phillips (I'm not sucking up-he has my money already-          
I am sorry that all the guys from last year won't be going the same week but we can all chow down together in camp on Saturday before the first week boys take off for the States with the furriest, biggest, bears!      
I'll be goin' again with my Border Black Douglas Swift, 61#@28 with GT's at about 545gr and Wensel's. Can't wait!

[bbassi]

I'll be there the first week too but I'm torn on which bow to bring. I've got a '68 Grizzly (my birth year) and I thought it would be cool to take my first bear with that old bear and a bear razor head. The other option is my original Silvertip......

[SERGIO VENNERI]

hi Don; good idea perhaps Ottawa?? I'll check out the dates. I would really like to be there , even just to video!

Whip, You're not thinking of bringing a certain PBS selfbow made by some guy named Walt by any chance are you    

That one is probably going to be propelling one of my arrows    Doc

Bowdoc, you be a poet-is that one of those Japanese haikus or something? You bringing some sonnets and a ukele with ya? I can see ya outside Paula's window already!   :D

[meathead]

I am working on a new recurve.  Bubinga handle, probably black glass.  Nothing too fancy.  Should come out about 70# maybe a pound or two under.  Also have some purpleheart footed shafts made up just waiting for some action.

[Tom Phillips]

Meathead,
   Footed shafts those are SWEET !!!!!!   Do you make many bows ?

   P.S. I just got done unloading another load of Hostess Goodies that need to be unwrapped and repacked !! Gotta get stink baits brewin pretty quick.

There is still just under 2 feet of snow in the woods behind my house !!

[meathead]

I only make 3 or 4 bows a year.  Just something to do in the slow months.  

The snow is done here, but it won't stop raining.  Seems like it rains every other day.  

Turkeys have been gobbling here for about a week.  I'll be chasing them around in about a month.  Man they taste good.
