Title: MoJam Thanks
Post by: Goose Gossett on July 18, 2010, 11:02:00 PM
So I came and conquered (even though my wife asked me if I was going to pack my green tights and felt hat).  To the guys there who were helping build bows and giving young pups new tricks thanks a ton.  There were many selfless people willing to give advice, time, and sweat to those willing to learn.  Thanks again for all the help.

This was my second with last year being my first. Boy was I spoiled last year with the cooler weather. This was a scorcher! It really was a great time though. I made my first snakey osage bow and it turned out great. Can't wait for next year.

yep I had a great time. I shot some awesome bows! I met, and re-met some tradgangers. I shot Dean Marlowl's osage ELB, Bob Barnes' crazy ipe laminate bow that I really liked. I chatted with Shawn outside his tippi. My boys really liked that. I shot a mini coon shoot with ductape and his son. I even traded off my "junk" osage to bjanson for a stave and some hickory backing strips.. The only bow work I did was on my sons bow and helping a few others. Thanks to the marshall bowhunters for an awesome time.

I want to thank everybody for there hard work so we could have the 2010 Mojam. I met a-lot of people and seen a bunch of beautiful bows. It was quite a thrill seeing all those youngsters launching those arrows.Even got a challenge going on next year with a few guys. Couple of us older fellows going up against some good young bowyers. Will keep everybody informed in the coming months what it is all about. Dean

The only complaint I heard was about the heat and this one was hot but we've had hotter.

I had a great time! Met a bunch of new folks and made friends with most..lol all except those who like to sleep in beyond 6:30 am. That's when the wake up yodel was given(freely I might add) each morning. I didn't want that any would miss those great biscuits and gravy.

A special thanks to Roger for a cup of coffee at the pole on the top of the hill each morning. Yodel primer I think is what I called it..lol
Also Bob Barnes for all the help and John for the ELB warbow.

I hope my "Original Ozark didgeridoo" helped to raise some funds for next years MoJam.

God bless,Mudd
