    No horn porn. Sorry.

    This is the reason I didn't go look at monster deer at the Iowa Deer show.

    It's our third bowfishing/archery booth show so far this year. I don't know how many kids shot at the archery booth but I know we went through well over 400 muzzy stickers.
    Our booth isn't pretty but it stays busy.

    So anyhow, here are some pictures. I didn't take very many because we were so busy. It was fun and I thought I'd share the pics.

    Outside they had a fish pond with bass, trout and some big cats. I saw several kids walking around with dead trout... it was kind of funny.

    A huge thanks to Ken, Dave, Joanne, Mike, Kendall and also to Jerry and Troy!

    ...note that almost all the stuff got crammed into my truck after the show. :eek:

    Looks like a lot of kids had fun, and maybe a few adults too. I'll see you in June at the IL Family Fishing Fair.

    Also gonna join the club tonight, you seem like an ok crowd. If you will allow a MO resident in. :D

    We set a new record for "youngest" youngster to shoot. This guy was just 1 year old.

    The hardest ones are the "I know how to do it" kids that then grab it with a fist.
    I woulda made good money if I got a dime for every time I said "Don't grab the arrow", "No thumb", "Just three fingers", "Stop", "Let go with this hand", and many more.

    I said "three fingers!"

    Boy, we went through a bunch of ballons. And our Buffalo target is just about done for...

    Who bought those little bitty brain aneurysm inducing balloons? Cripes, I gave up trying to blow those up . I think the club needs to spring for an air tank next year. :)

    Thanks John, we'll need you at the Family Fishing Flood... errr I mean, Fair.

    We allow MO residents in the club.... but they have a special initiation process. :D
