Hi I know I am new here, but I just found out about a slingshot festival from chief AJ. I'd been emailing him about his slingbows.

He told me "There will be a Big Slingshot Festival in Tuscola, IL Sept 29 & 30 . Round ball slingshot Tournament, Aerial Targets, Trade Tables, Big Prizes. My home is giving the National Slingshot Association the whole City Park for the Slingshot event to celebrate my getting slingshots approved for deer hunting here in the Big Buck State of Illinois. U R this first to know about the Slingshot Festival"

I'm going to try and make it inbetween school, maybe I can see some of you there.

Is the whole event centered around slingshots or is it a part of a larger show?

I believe it is centered around slingshots/slingbows. It is to celebrate slingbow hunting becoming legal in IL.

Like I said, we'll see what devolops.
For some reason everything related to AJ seems at least a little fishy to me. Trying not to be too negative, I could be way off base.

Sounds good! End of Sept is usually still pretty good riding weather. Might want to take the kids, though.

No problems. Tone is a hard thing to convey over the internet. And I know what you mean about skill, lol
