Check out the Compton Rendezvous schedule for 2009. Do you think you'll have time to do and see it all?

Ron,
I didn't see the hours listed for Friday and Sunday. I'll only make one day this year and will need to plan that day "off" in advance with my better half. (I have a 2 year old, a 4 year old and my wife and I are expecting twins!) So I'll need to give early notice on which day I'm going, if you get my drift. LOL

Ron,
    My buddy and I are making the trip for the first time this year, can't wait! Will you have bows there to try out? I've owned quite a few Shrews, but really wanting to try one of the carbon Shrews.
               Thanks,
                       James

We are looking forward to being there for the first time this year.

My eleven yr old son is getting a new Martin recurve with a metal handle, would this bow be welcome there?

Sounds like a blast!

I will be there, but pretty much know for sure I won't be able to see everything.  It will be my first time as a vendor, and that will keep me pretty buzy.

We'll be up there as usual.  My son had been asking me as soon as we left last year when we're going back.  Always an awsome time!!! dino

Yes we are going to see it all again. In Ron's pic on the left side are my kids sitting on the ground watching the ladies toss the skillet.

Bonebuster, all recurves and longbows are welcome at Compton's. As well as your choice of arrow material. This is a great event, awesome 3d courses and plenty of fun shooting events. The aerial targets are a blast, especially at night. Best is meeting old and new friends, checking out all the vendors, buying supplies, and shooting many bows. I'll be there early to help do some set-up work. Looking forward to it!
