See you soon Randy.
The swap table is for "used" items, right? The flyer says "unused".
I'm hoping to find some "used" arrows and other bargains. Might even bring some of my own items for the table.
I should have used the words "used", or "lightly used", or "no longer being used by me", or "unwanted by me" (but that sounds so cruel and anti-social), or "useless to me", or "'I want this thing gone' items", or "the items that have been sitting in the corner, feeling abandoned", or "your items that you can't make work, but someone else will, and do well with them"....
Well, you get the picture...
((Awl them thar yeers ov studeein eNglish, an I kant even proofreed gud. Sad. Truly sad. N-@ ))
As long as it is related to Traditional Archery, it can be placed on the Trade tables. New. Nearly new. Used. Over/under used. Cursed. Magical. Jinxed.
It's your choice, Dave. Just beware of the Jinxed arrows you may find......
HARRY CARRY, out!!
"Trout Outdoors" will be the featured vendor at this years' Traditional Archery Weekend!
Yep, Ken will have his wide range of new and used longbows and recurves, and his well-stocked supply of Traditional Archery items available to peruse on the INSIDE, set up between the bales-shooting area and the R&R&Dining tables.
So, just another reason to consider a visit to Strictly Sticks next weekend, June 14-15!
Hope to see YOU there!
I was hoping Trout would be there, I need stuff!
If the "iron" wolf is on the prowl arras will be in demand! Hope Ken brings some inventory!

To keep things interesting, we may NOT keep things 15, 15, and 30 targets. This is "Strictly Sticks", and the Crew often does not follow "the rules" well!!!
Logistics may allow us the opportunity to add a few other shooting opportunities if we see them arise during our next set-ups Thursday eve and Friday.
We'll also need to see if any storm damage from tonight's interesting weather has altered any of our plans. Our collective fingers are crossed on that...
Worry not, though, we've got a shoot this weekend, and IT'S GOING TO BE A GOOD ONE!!!
Frank was a new comer and he fit right in. Thanks again guys and gals. And a special thanks for the cake Sue!
With 2 gorgeous weather days after a week of some simply awful weather, the full Sun and clear skies made for some very fun Archery as experienced by our visitors AND the Crew. And the full moon over the Clubhouse grounds, as seen around 2:20 AM, was spectacular!
Though "Sticks" prides itself in being a fun-based event, we did have two "competitions"(!!) ongoing throughout the weekend, and accolades are deserved for the following Archers:
Winner of the "Strictly Sticks Eagle Eye Competition" this year was Bob Hildenbrand! Winners of the daily "Distance 50/50" were Lynda Keller on Saturday, and Jeff Findish on Sunday. Special recognitions also went to two young Archers for qualifying for the Eagle Eye Challenge, by competing on the same level, conditions, and distances as all the other competing Archers: these young Archers are Elizabeth Oakley, age 11, and Ashlyn Penich, also age 11!
Though we missed seeing some longtime friends, the Sticks event welcomed MANY new folks...first timers to ANY outdoor/3D type of Archery event. Thank you for choosing to visit with us, and we hope the event we presented to you was worthy enough for your return in the future. And for our friends who were unable to attend: we missed you!
So, simply, THANK YOU for a Great Archery Weekend. We had as much fun as hopefully you all did. And we hope to shoot with you again!
