This is what my friend Shana is saying about this event:
"What is so exciting about this event is u have the best of all worlds. Family, friends, and fellowship, along with the IBO competitive event to test your skills with some of the best archers in the country. If you truly want to visit and shoot amongst hundreds of shooters this is the shoot to make. All skill levels welcome. Lots of vendors to supply your needs. This is always one of the finest shoots of the year."

I couldn't agree more Shana

FOLKS, IT'S TEN DAYS AWAY, from the 15th Howard Hill Classic & IBO Mid America traditional archery event.

BUT, in a few days, we'll start placing our targets for some challenging, yet fun arrow flinging.

Nows the time to get someone started in the sport we all love so much.

Bring those friends who haven't been at an archery event for a while, I have no doubt, this event will rekindle that archery fire.

Folks, all SIXTY FIVE Targets are out.

TWENTY FIVE on the range for the Howard Hill Classic.

Two TWENTY Target ranges for the IBO Mid America.

Here's just a few of several targets on the three courses.

NOW, not every range has each of these targets.

SO, if ya want to shoot one of these targets, YA NEED TO SHOOT BOTH, The IBO and HH Classic courses.

Folks, these photos in NO WAY show you the outstanding placement of these targets.

Folks, I hope I don't jinx this, but the weather this weekend looks as it's gonna be OUTSTANDING!!!

So many event this year have had some pretty bad weather and I've always felt bad for those who put on these events.

Now, let me say again, YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS EVENT!!!

A Dual Competitive event at one location is very rare, and the target set ups are absolutely fantastic in my opinion.

I feel this will be an ULTIMATE COMPETITION  / FELLOWSHIP gathering for some of the best shooters and friends you'll come across.

I had a great time; it was well worth the 18 hour round trip drive. Both events were well done and very professionally staffed. Got to shoot with some great archers (Rick Harper, Robert Harper, and Bob Enlow) and met some really great people. Thanks for all the hard work that the hosts did. I'll be back next year.

Yes it was a great shoot again this year. Maybe one of the best as I have been there for last 10 years and they have all been great! Weather was perfect and the courses were fantastic. Great job Terry and teaming up with IBO was great addition. Meeting new people (Grumpy Jim and his son) was a high light of the weekend.  Have made many friends at this shoot. We have seen them all over the country over the years. One of the key spots for Robert and I to meet up and shoot till we can't go any more.
See you next year!!

This was number 13 for me and was the best one yet, in my opinion. While it was quite hot, the Hill course was totally shaded and the breeze was really nice. Best of all, the humidity was fairly low, a most comfortable combination of conditions. Even you northern guys could have dealt with the weather just fine, so next year, come on down. I didn't sign up for the IBO event, because I have some health issue that don't go well with heat. However, as it turned out I believe I could have shot both events easily. A lot of people did and told me it wasn't unduly uncomfortable at all.

At first, I wasn't sure that combining the events would be a good mix, but it turned out to be great. A lot of my friends did shoot both, and it sounds like I left myself out of a neat adventure. The Hill range was laid out quite nicely. It had a few targets that had certain impediments, but none were unrealistically trashy. It was fun. The targets were fresh and new. Terry and his crew did a really great job and made this a very good shoot again this year.

Best of all, I shot 3 rounds without missing any targets, an unprecedented accomplishment for me. So, yeah, I am feeling real good about this event. I plan to be right back there next year as well.

Terry and staff are 1st class and folks like us unfortunately don’t know how good we have it till it’s gone sometimes. Thanks for your years of dedication Terry. I had a sick FIL in the hospital and was afraid to leave town. I had a longing all weekend to be at Tannehill and will make every effort to be there next year. Hope there was a record crowd.
