    All the specifics for camping have already been posted and more specific details about the shoot on Saturday will be coming in the next month or so. Hope you can make it out!

    Yep, I have been really working on my bow, getting it tuned to perfection. Finally got my draw weight close to 70lbs and have started shooting out to 50yds. Im really dead on out to 20 yds, getting decent groups at 30, can hit what im mostly aiming at at 40 yds, and well 50, i can hit the target, and get it close to where I was actually aiming but thats pushing it.

    Been going through all the camping gear and making sure I have everything I need for the most part, just need to set the tent up and air it out when the date gets closer. Other than that, just buying little food and beer and im set to hit the road.

    Speaking of food let me know if anything is needed, i have a couple packs of tenderloin steaks left, bunch of deer burger.

    Swung by the campground and hunt club on my way down to the IL Deer and Turkey Expo this morning! Was really surprised how many people were already camping. Now if June would just get here I am ready to go!

    I was a little worried when I decided to go back to school that I may have to miss the G2G because of class, since I am starting on May 16 for the Summer semester. However it looks like I'll only be taking Tuesday and Thursday classes and should be all free to drive up on Friday. I'll know for sure tomorrow after I meet with my advisor!! Fingers crossed my schedule works out as planned!

    I was thinking the same thing but I am gonna take online classes so I might have to spend a bit of time at the nearby Starbucks for internet access depending on what my schedule works out.
