Spring 2016 Becker West Gathering April 15th-17th

Billy and I had another blast!!!! Great friends, great booze, great food, and the weather played nice too :) The contests as usual were fun and educational! The primitive weapons was devious and super fun! Billy built his own atlatl and did pretty well with it :) The bow and crossbow were amazing!!! Thanks to everyone who worked make this happen :D Also thank you Ethan and KaBar for the excellent prize box!
 
Home and tired. Just wanted to say a quick couple things before nap time because work tonight...

I'll be back later with pictures and more talk. G'night for now.
 
A big time thank you to Nate, Logan, Ethan, and Ka-bar!!
Without you guys these gatherings probably wouldn't happen.
All of us are very appreciative for the use of the land and the great box of prizes for the competition.
Thanks to Awesome-0 for being the ringleader of the competions.They were onnce again very fun and entertaining.
And thanks to everyone who made it out! We ended up with a sizable group of some of the coolest people on the planet.

That was such a blast. Thank you everyone. Once again you have allowed me to join you and you've been incredible. I couldn't have had a better time.
It may take a while to recover. My body is sore my cranial cavity is aching and my face hurts from smiling and laughing so freaking much.
Thank you all again for, oh wait. That nice young lady in the clean, white coat just came in to take me back. I may be out for a while. When they see me giggling like this they keep saying something about keeping me away from sharp objects while they give my something to make me sleep. :confused: Aaah yes.
Hey, what's that 'squatch doing? Is that a 'squatch or a Yeti?
 
I really want to make it out to one of the west gatherings. Ours in the east isn't too bad, though. I love the PNW.

I wanted to goto this but my 50th bday party was this last weekend. Looks like everyone had a blast.
 
Looks like a blast, near perfect weather, beautiful place, great people, in support of a great company. How could it have been anything but great? Mack, was that blood pressure meds you were holding in both your hands? :) As stress relief and a way of dealin' with elevated bps #s, a blowout where ya get to relieve all that tension and just let go of the day to day and to do it with friends, some of which you've never really met makes it that much better.

Hopefully one year I'll make one of the Becker East gatherings, Glad everyone had a great time and made it home safe and sound. :) :thumbup:

You really do need to get to one of these. Yes, that was my double fisted stress reliever. It worked nearly as well as the Grizzly .45 mag did to lower my BP.
 
Thanks to all the folks who made this deal happen, the list gets longer all the time. God willing we'll do it again 2nd week of November.
 
Since I think I was the only one up to enjoy this in person, I figured I should share.

Great pics, thanks for sharing! It's really cool that this was going on at the same time on opposite ends of our great country.

Yeah...that 6 hurts...
 
Yeah, the 6 breaking like that definitely sucked, but I didn't let it ruin my weekend.
I was using a stump to lightly chop the end off a small branch when it happened. Wierd... Oh well.
 
It really sucked! I wanted to play with it but didn't want to touch it after that happened. T'was a sad day...
 
I never saw the 6. Glad it wasn't me using it when it broke.
 
ha done hell of a time even though nothing exploded. if I ever get the wife to send me the pics she took I will get them posted
