Carlyle on July 31st
Who wants to meet up at Carlyle on Saturday, July 31st?
The Illinois Federation of Outdoor Resources (IFOR) is holding their youth camp on that weekend and they would like us to teach a bowfishing class again on Saturday afternoon. They also think it would be cool if we could shoot some bigheads in the morning so we can cook some up for the kids to try. (if you can shoot bigheads on Friday, we'll put them on ice for Saturday)
So, I need some fish shooters and a couple of folks to help the kids shoot bowfishing bows at the foam fish targets. The bowfishing class is only about an hour or so. It will be up at Coles Creek. It's easy, we just teach basic shooting form and aiming.
Anybody?

Phil,
We are going to try bowfishing before the event and probably afterwards.
I don't know if Kendall will make it down there so I probably won't bring the pontoon boat. So we will have to hit up John or Jeff (the Shot n the Dark boat). Hopefully, we can get another boat or three down there.

Madam President, Not sure what that weekend will bring. My family from California will be here in town, we only get to see them once every two years. Plus I am going to be using up some of my leverage to try and get to Dave's drill and grill next weekend.

Thanks G!
Our plan is now to head down there on Friday. (K is going to skip work to shoot fish... He's that dedicated.
)
If you have some biggies for the cause, icing them down would be great. I'm going to try and get some shot and cut up on Friday.
Phil, thanks to you and your buddy too. Can you bring your bows to the bowfishing class?
I hope the fish cooperate!
