Anyone coming bring your wild turkey feathers with you and I can work out a deal to process them for you. I will have a table set up with custom wood arrows and feathers for sale.

Will unfortunately be a no show.

Pleurisy, a lung viral infection and acute bronchitis has taken its toll. Yesterday, was the worst and I will choose the wise plan to whip this at home and enjoy our beloved trad family in the near future.

Enjoy the best of a times at the KY Trad Fest. I sure have.

Weather forecast seems to have scared lots into staying home, which is a shame.  Friday was beautiful, snowed a good bit Saturday but by late afternoon it had melted and was sunny and beautiful.  We packed up Saturday evening due to lack of a crowd, but I think Sunday was nice also.  It was a bit cool at times, but as I understand it once you got on the course the trees blocked the wind and it was nice (I was there as a vendor, didn't get to shoot).  The weather was MUCH better than it sounded in the forecast.  We plan to be back.

This was first one that I have missed too. I hate that the weather was so poor on Saturday. Hopefully monsterbuck and I will be back next year.

We must endure the less than amicable weather conditions for they are shared with both the good and bad archers.
I have always managed to find much fulfillment at the KY Trad Fest.

Personally, ninety plus temps coupled with hi humidity are typically far more a deterrent.
