This will be my first time going, but Eldon was highly recommended. I was on BQ4 last year and had a great time.  Couldn't make it back this year, but I couldn't resist the special price for the hunt.  We will be staying in one of the cabins by the lake.

This will be my second year with Longbow, he's a dedicated hunter and a joy to be with. Good luck in September, I'll be back home by then.

I'll be there the first week. I think I'm camping in a tent.  I guess there's a campground close by.  As of this moment I'm flying solo. Getting excited though. Should be fun.

Eldon is quite a long bow shooter, hunter and 3d. My wife and I have shot with him at a few 3d shoots in the past, he's quite a character lol.

Tell him Alan and Lynn Beaulier said hi.

Dang sounds like everybody will be there either the 1st week or 3rd week. I will be there the second week with three other trad gangers. Would be great to have a whole week filled with trad shooters.

Earl: I am sure if things are the way they usually are the majority of hunters will be trad bowhunters.
