Title: Kalamazoo
Post by: Mark Colangelo on January 17, 2018, 11:18:00 PM
My buddy and I are pretty new to traditional archery and are making our first roadtrip to the expo! The seminars sound amazing and I cannot wait to meet and learn from such experienced archers. We're stationed at Offutt AFB in Nebraska and are making the 9 hour trip for the weekend. Neither of us have ever even encountered another trad geek and we hunt at least 50 days a year. As an added bonus, I am picking up a new Elkheart that Gregg has made for me! I am anticipating this trip as much as any hunting trip I can recall.

Stop at the bank on your way out of Nebraska. There's a good chance you'll need some extra cash   :biglaugh:

You will enjoy meeting Gregg just as much as you enjoy your new Elk Heart. Mine is on a VERY short list of "never sell" bows.

You wont be disappointed, a JavaMan was on my list to shoot last year.  I picked up a 56" Elkheart that is 45# @ 28", it came home with me like a lost puppy.  I absolutely love shooting it, it makes a great turkey tent bow.

Wish I were going back to Michigan. About a 30 hr drive for me.
Wave at Detroit on your way up I-75.
Thanks for your service from a former 90270.
Enjoy that new bow.
