Title: Pics. from Iowa
Post by: David Spear on March 06, 2011, 10:00:00 AM
Sorry about the pics. some turned out really bad and had to delete a few. The first pic. is from a guy shooting a BW LB his second shot he broke the arrow knock went back to BW to get another arrow and this is his forth shot. It was pretty cool because I was lucky enough to see it happen.

I can't believe how quiet Chad's bows are.

The most impressive bow there, for me, was the Dwyer, Endeavor. Super quick, quiet and no hand shock. I shot a 58" model. Great bow!   :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

I was lucky enough to spend Friday and Saturday at this event and wish I was there again today. This is one of those excitng events in life that I will remember for a long time. I would like to thank all the people that put this together and the vendors there for making the trip to Iowa and treating us to such a special occasion. It was a pleasure meeting you and I hope it went well for all. Hopefully this will continue annually and grow into the future.

Three of us went Sat.  We shot several bows.  Also went to the seminar with Fred Asbell.  Could have listened to him longer.  I went back with my wife Sun. and bought a few more things.  I'm not sure how many bows I tried but had a really good time.  I know theres one coming in the future just have to make up my mind which one.

Thanks for posting the pictures. It was great meeting a lot of new people this weekend, and a great new event. From what I am hearing plans are go to get off to a quick start for next year to make this event even bigger.

Hope everyone got home safe we had an 8 hour drive and some of the vendors had a lot longer drive than us

Thanks for all of the pictures. Definitely an "Archers Paradise". Talk about sensory overload on bows. I would love to have been there, maybe someday. I hope they continue having it, a lot of awesome displays. Cool Robin Hood, I'll bet that bow went home with whoever shot it and the Robin Hood arrows also. I appreciate the time you took, to take all of the pictures and then to post them for those of us who weren't there.
