The "Aspirin Buster---bow & arrow razzle dazzle"

The "Have Bow- Will Travel" Tour Heads to Derby City

I'm headed back to Louisville, Kentucky to do a show for the Pape's Archery "Dealer Only" event they are hosting the weekend of March 31, 2007. I'll be performing Saturday night after their dinner.

In April I'll head to Lancaster, PA to do a show for the national Pope & Young Convention. I look forward to both of these events, I rarely get to perform for the archery industry. Most of my shows are for the public so these will both be a great way to see some old friends from the world of archery.

In June we'll crank the tour back up to full force, heading south to start the summer out with shows in Florida and Alabama. Later in the summer we'll be back in Florida, Illinois, Kentucky, South Carolina..... etc.

The Legendary Jim Dougherty

Jim Dougherty is a living legend. I first met him sometime in the early 1980's. He is one of the greats of our sport and a super guy. Jim recently sent me a signed arrow for my collection which means a great deal to me. He also stopped by to chat a few minutes not long ago when I was in Tulsa, Oklahoma doing shows.

I've been doing a series of celebrity interviews on Bowhunting.net with well known folks and legends of the sport of archery. So far Ann Clark, Dick Lattimer, MR James, Ann Hoyt, Dave Staples, and many other well known members of the sport have all allowed me to interview them. This has been a great way to record archery history direct from those that have helped make it! Be sure you check out the Jim Dougherty interview here.

Jim Dougherty is a fine man and well loved member of the sport! We wish you the very best my friend.

Have Bow-- Will Travel

If your event could use some "bow & arrow razzle dazzle" then be sure you get in touch! I have a few open spots in 2007 and we are now booking 08 and 09 events. My show will entertain families at your event and usually draws great media coverage.

Until next time---shoot straight & God Bless,
