Sherwood Traditional Archery Rendezvous
« on: April 03, 2017, 08:36:00 PM »
The 2017 S.T.A.R. shoot,   Sherwood Traditional Archery Rendezvous will be held at Sherwood Archers in Roanoke, Va. on June 3 & 4. We hope to make this, our 12th S.T.A.R., our biggest and best shoot so far, as well as the most fun for our participants.

As we did last year, our 3-D range will be a fun shoot format. We will still strive to set our targets in some of the most interesting terrain as well as realistic target presentation possible. Score cards will be available if you want to have some friendly competition with your fellow shooters.

We will  have "A" range open, our field course, and we will have  2-D animal faces up for you to enjoy and tune your skills on. This turned out to be a real fun course for everyone last year.

The tough man shoot will still be a money shoot and will be placed up the hollow like it was last year and the fun range will be set up across the road again this year.

There will be a lot going on this year. The Medieval re-enactors will be back with their largest show to date. They will actually be combining two of their shows for the weekend this year. Our raffle bow  for this year will be a new Bear Montana longbow, one of the newer models with brown dymondwood and brown glass. We will have other door prizes available as well.  The kitchen will be open both days and there is primitive camping available. As we have done the last couple of years, there will be a "yard sale" area where archery/bow hunting items can be bought, sold and traded.

I hope you put it on your calendars to come out and spend the weekend, or at least a day with us. There should be enough to keep you busy putting arrows in the air and "shooting till your fingers blister!"

Visit us at our website for more information and to view some photos from past S.T.A.R. shoots.

See you in June,

Thanks goodness Randy-was getting concerned whether STAR would happen again this year. Have been to every one since it started and this year am going to walk the 3D-slowly but will get out there. For those contemplating this shoot don't hesitate. These folks work their butts off to have a great shoot and the hospitality is second to none. Will likely contribute another arrow to the tough man course again this year but it is a blast.

Got it on my calender.  Last year was great.  I especially liked how almost all the 3d targets had some terrain close behind them to catch missed shots.  Cant wait!

Nook,
 Bringing a piece of rebar(if I can't shoot it I'll pitch it) for that darn course-tough on the hanging bear but good on all the lower ones.

TTT-well worth the drive. My wife and I have been several times together and always enjoy the people and entertainment. The tough man course is a blast and worth an arrow as it seems to always swallow up mine.
