    Montana Self Bow Jamboree June 23-26

    Hey- I know it’s a drive, but our local archery club is hosting the Montana Self Bow Jamboree, June 23-26 in Sheridan Montana. The price with dry camping at the range (which is on a very generous family cattle ranch) is really low. I was told to add $130 for an oak stave to make into a bow.,

    We’re in SW Montana about 2 hours from Yellowstone, 90 minutes to Bozeman and if you fly fish, less than an hour to the Jefferson, Big Hole, and Madison Rivers.

    If anybody’s interested post questions or PM me with a phone # and I’ll call you. Garrett’s number, who is organizing the event is also on the flyer.

          That sounds like a lot of fun. I wish I could go to more of those kinds of events.

            I think I should be able to make it next year, if it is about the same time of year.

              I’ll post how it goes this years and next year if we host again.

              The price of staves are $130, which is in the price range I see online. Does yew grow in Texas? Or osage orange?

                    I don’t know the answer to that one.

                      Staves were osage orange and $120-$140. I’m going back today for the 4th day to finish my new self bow. What a great group of people and experience.

                      Here’s a couple pictures, more to follow.

                      Shooting a 10’ self bow one of bowyers brought. Why 10’? Because he could!

                        It shoots really nice. Finished around 42# @ 28”” which is what I wanted.
