Lots of K-Zoo pictures & thoughts from a new guy

[fz4vgq]

Hello Everyone, new guy here. I made the drive to the K-Zoo show today..... figured I'd jump into the traditional world with both feet. My archery background is all modern/compound. I went to the show a little nervous not knowing what to expect. The second I walked through the doors the nerves disappeared. What a great bunch of people you all are. I talked with most all the bowyers and what a great help each and every one of them was, I learned ALOT in a very short period. I shot quite a few bows and learned my preferences. Now I know why so many of yo have an collecion of so many bows.... it's impossible to stop at just one !

I know I missed alot of pictures of all the bowyers and their bows..... I was so awestruck by so many of them I forot to take pictures !

Thanks to all I met and talked with,

Chad

Oh man, thanks for sharing.  I could not make it and was sitting around pouting all weekend.  Now i am sure it was a mistake to stay home.  You have helped me go farther into depression since i didn't go.  

Well, one thing is for sure.  My wife thanks you.  

No really.  Thanks

Cool pics, good to see all those bows again!

[Rooselk]

Wow! :eek:  I don't think I've ever seen so many beautiful bows in one place.

Thank you!
I love to hear a newcomer's impression of the sport, its people and equipment. You have a discerning eye, and that made your pictures a real treat. Great seeing some things I had only heard about, and seeing old friends that I haven't seen in years. Thanks again for the pics, from one who couldn't be there.

An aside: Sorry you had such a bummer of a weekend, Jack. Nice pics of the Morrisons, eh?    :p
