Heading to Waterloo for archery expo
« on: March 02, 2011, 11:43:00 AM »
Tomorrow morning, I'm heading to Waterloo, Iowa, to set up for the Midwest Traditional and Primitive Archery Expo to be held at the 5 Sullivan Brothers Convention Center. Some of the finest custom bowyers in the country will be there so attendees will have the chance to shoot some mighty fine bows in the try-out area. Compton Traditional Bowhunters will demonstrate their trophy scoring system, so bring along that trad-harvested rack or skull to have scored. Seminar speakers will be G. Fred Asbell, Steve Gorr, Gene Winter, Paul Shore and Dan Brockman. Show hours are 2-8 p.m. Friday, 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday. Entry fee is $5 (under 12 free).
I'll have a sign-in sheet for TradGangers at my booth and stick-on name tags.
Hope many of you can make the show and help make it a success. Thanks, Tom

I wish I could go! I'm trying to talk my brother who still lives in Dubuque into to going. He has only ever shot compounds but I am trying to get him straightened out. So if you see a 6'8" goofy lookin' guy (LOL!!) walking around like he clueless, give him hell! He usually needs a nudge when it comes to spending money!!! That's when he calls me!!

Looks like Mother Nature likes us.  The snow storm forcasted for this weekend is now gone!  Maybe some rain on Friday but the temps all above 32!
See you all on Saturday!

The Rapids crew will be there around noon, you know how we like to make an entrance...
