Today my family went down to the 5th. Annual Eastern Ohio Traditional Rendezvous.
Had a Blast!! Met up with some fellow Trad-gangers and shot the 3-d range, talked about bow-making and deer hunting, well...hunting in general. Met again with Kenny (4runr), Jim (Jmatt1957),and Matt(celticknot). Also met "longbowben" for the first time. Ben had prior commitments, but talked deer and elk hunting for while before leaving......would like to talk with him again....he's got some stories up his sleeve.
In the morning, my wife, daughter, myself, and Jmatt shot a round together. Only got 1 picture ,but it is a good one:(some little lady has the best shot of the group here :) )

Later that afternoon, the girls sat this round out, but Kenny, Matt, Jim, and myself started a round and were joined by Doug Schlabaugh, his 2 boys, and another fellow whose name I just forgot. Here's a pic of 1 heck of a group coming from 8 shooters:
