Hand is getting better guys. Hope to start shooting my longbow this weekend. If it goes OK I will be good for the stump shoot.

ok now on the trade blanket i need your thoughts. i was thinking of everyone drawing a number from a hat and pick in that order? should we have it before or after the shoot? any other ideas? if someone had a few things they want to sell that is fine but my idea for the blanket was for everyone to bring the extra gear you don't use for the blanket and whoever might need/want it? what do ya think?

Drawing sounds good to me , just looking to share so it really doesn't matter how it gets done.

i would say we could shoot for order but ole Thorny would clean house and we would only have an old wool blanket for trade!

I think any way you do it Ken would work fine,  Nobody's coming to this event to go home with armloads of gear.  

I think picking is better than randomly winning unless random winners are choosing their prize?     :dunno:

I just want to meet and greet some great people.
Relax,

Well it's confirmed I'm coming! Gonna drop my wife and 3yo at my M-I-L's near Newburgh Friday night, head to Troy for a reunion Saturday night and head to the Adirondacks early AM Sunday or maybe Saturday night depending on the festivities in Troy...

Besides the blanket swap or whatever it's called what else do I bring?

NOTHING, just yourself! as far as the blanket you need nothing, if you have extra gear you don't use bring it and throw it down. the trade blanket like Charlie said is just a small thing, the best is to meet new faces! look forward to seeing you!

Looking forward to meeting everyone. I get to NY a lot for my wife's family. Would be cool to have some like minded folks to shoot with when I get tired of the in-laws homestead.

Extra gear is an understatement...lol  
Went all trad 18months ago and have 8 LBs and 2 RCs on my bow rack...don't even get me started on the small stuff!

You can always throw a bow on the blanket   :archer:

Cant wait fellas. Should be shooting again. Hate to say, we are looking at more snow Friday if the weather man is right. I know, they usually aren't but lets hope that they have it wrong.

Anyone have the address/coordinates to plug into Mapquest or Rand McNally for driving directions?

Charlie, That equipment doesnt sound very traditional   :readit:      :biglaugh:  

Hopefully Ken will come through with an address soon.

Antonio, there are a few great Guys around the Newburgh area for future NY visits.

I think Thorny is right. Numbers would be an orderly way to play. If people are all set with gear they can "pass the buck".
Relax,

If you go to Mapquest maps, and type in Rockwood state forest,  a map will pop up. Then just click on directions, and voila.

Equipment?  It will be printed out here at work and then stuck in the pages of my 20 year old New York Gazeteer topo map book  . . . and most likely then both left on the kitchen counter Sunday morning beside my finger tab.   :banghead:  


I'm doomed.  I typed in Rockwood State Forest and it gave me directions to Tennessee.  I kid you not.    :biglaugh:    They'll find my bones in the summer along some Adirondak logging road.
