MI,

Sent you a PM...thanks!  

Sure thing man. I am happy to help   .

Doc check yer pm's

Got it, Dale. Thanks! Very kind words  

A quick note to say thanks to the many responders to this post.

I've met and made contact with a bunch of good folks out there and am excited to get moved and settled and start building some relationships with fellow trad guys and gals!

I got to see the BVA club. Very nice. I met Mike, Joe and Paul's Dad, Dan while there. I've talked to Rod a few times, so to each of you, my deepest gratitude for the help, advice, suggestions and to those of you I met while there, thanks for your generous allowance of time to help me get my bearings.

I'll be living up in Beaver County out on Barkley Hill Road, so hopefully, as I get settled, I will find ways to meet up with more folks and get to shoot!

thanks again!

Welcome and don't beleive a word Rod tells you!

LOL, he is a great guy.

We've talked a few times, but he was working the days I was there... so we couldn't hook up.

Looking forward to meeting him for sure!

I live in Butler Co. Right off of 422 between route 8 and Kittanning. We have a great outdoor shooting club about a mile and a half from my house. Its called Oneida Bow Hunters. We got a good bit of Trad shooters at the club.

If you feel like making the trip every tuesday night, shoot me a PM and we'll get you here. Its a blast.

Allegheny Archers is going to be the store you are looking for. Chris and Claude are good people.

Hey doc nock, I'm about an hour from where you will be. Beaver Valley Archers will be real close to you. They have a great club and it is Archery only club. I'll pm you the e-mail of an officer for their club. Roy

Dave - Your buddy Ted here.  Chris and Claude are good friends of mine.  Give me a ring when your ready and I'll take you up to the shop . . . given our phone coversations, I think you are going to like Allegheny Archers a lot . . . our kind of people for sure.

Matt,

A goodfriend here grew up in Kittaning... I had friends in Ziely some years back... nice country.

Roy, I'm sure we'll hook up through Bob or whatever..thanks for the PM's.

Ted, You coming up to help me move in?      Ah...yeah...you'll be on assignment for sure!    

Thanks guys. We'll get things squared away once I got myself settled and can find my clothes and stuff!  

No problem on the move - just give me a ring and I'll do what I can.  I have A LOT of travel in September, but I'll help out however I can.

(gotta get the travel out of the way before the season starts).

Brian...small world.  Where are you in Cranberry?  I live of Powell/Klein Roads in Woodbine plan.  Nice to know there are other trad guys nearby.

Doc, email me if I can help in any way.

Ephram . . . there are a lot of us in the area.  If you want to meet some more, you gotta check out Allegheny Archers if you haven't already.  Just take the turnpike over to the Beaver Valley exit and take route 8 north for just over 10 miles.  Probably a half hour trip from Cranberry and the shop is awesome.

Ted, I'll let you know when I'm moving and if you can run up...neat..if'n not, I understand.

BRent, sent you a note.

I can't wait to get settled so I can start to enjoy living out there and meeting good folks!

Course, there is that pesky part of starting a new JOB!    

I was so excited about the job, but the house location and trips to find a place kinda overshadowed it...hopefully, that comes back into focus quickly!

Thanks, guys!

Man, you guys are making me homesick...
Left Latrobe nearly 25 years ago when I was 16 but man what an impact that area had on me and the people were great.  25 years of Los Angeles, San Bernardino and Orange County later; I got burned out of the big city people and moved my family to a small town near Lake Tahoe area (NV side) for the small town feel but boy do I miss the green mountains and deer population.
Doc, blessings on your move and settling-in.
Quinn

Well, thanks, Quinn. That is so nice.  Home is where we make it I guess. I'll miss people, but not the area here.  Maybe the rugged Susquehanna river cliff's and such, but not so much. New places to learn and live...  

Ephram,

Sending you a PM. I live in Highland Village, less than a mile from you...

Brian

Man, I never realized there were so many TG'ers in the Pittsburgh area.  Once Doc gets settled in, we ought arrange a shoot of some sort.

Should we have a Doc shoot???    

Wednesday Caste- tell me about yerself please?
