RE: Who's going to be at the Second Leg Nationals?
I was planning to shoot all 3 Legs and Worlds but those plans pretty much got shot to hell when I found out May 1st that I was losing my job as of June 1. 
With a couple out of state hunting trips planned for later this year (tags, gas, etc)and all the turkey and flyfishing this spring those 3 legs of the IBOwere just going to be a bit too much to think about $$$ wise at $4.00/ gal for gas, entry fees etc to try to win an amateur class. I shut it down over a month ago and will only shoot the local money events, and team money events. (Have a $4,000 team shoot coming up in 2 weeks outdoors under the lights)
So just tonight actually I stripped my MBR stuff off and have a scope on right now that I need to dial in beginning tomorrow. 50yds Open class in the dark is gonna be a tough 3D event, and I'll be shooting against the best shooters from all over including pros.
I'll practice hard for this one and see if can win some money, reset the bow for MBR afterwards and maybe shoot one or 2 more money events and that'll be it. The hunting stuff will come out and I'll try to forget this spring ever happened.
I'm officially 11 days into my "Summer Vacation" [&o]

Well sorry you won't make it to Erie, butatleast I got to meet you at the ATA show. It would have been nice to talk to you again though.

Matt, I hate to hear it about the job. Things happen for a reason I guess.
I wish we had some IBO stuff around here, it's all ASA here. IBO would be pretty cool as a new thing.
