Look at your Gazetteer and find Johnstown N.Y.. Then follow Rt. 29 west for about 8 miles give or take. That's where Rockwood State Forest is. Big parking area on the south side of the road. Not sure where your coming from but that will get you there!!   :readit:

Charlie,

Try Rockwood state forest, Johnstown NY. If you drive to Tennessee, I bet you would win Ron W.'s furthest traveled award.   :readit:  

If you head out on 29, you would see a big group of cars on the left hand side of the road if you follow Google maps recommended travel routes.

I'd offer you my spare set of tabs but I'd probably leave them on my table too.
Relax,

You'll live longer!

Just wear higher boots. Should be ok by then. Maybe just a little sloppy.

Looks like the big snow forecast was a April fools joke......We should be good in 2+ weeks.

The quest to improve is so focused on a few design aspects & compensating for hunter ineptness as to actually have reduced a bow & arrow’s effectiveness. Nothing better demonstrates this than mech. BHs & speed fixated designs

Getting closer now. Can't wait guys. We will have a good time. Shot the course in Vernon Center today. Great course. The shoot next Sunday should be a blast. Hope to see some of you there. Prizes, raffles & $5 breakfast for those who are interested. The shooting is great, but meeting & talking to other trad guys really make it a joy.
