I am planning on taking my 9 year old son he loves to shoot. Any advice as we are first timers. Planning on staying 1 or 2 nights. All advice will be appreciated

You didn't mention plans about where you will be staying, but if you plan to camp at the shoot, get there as early in the week as you can because camping really gets jam packed.

Looking forward to being there again this year.
Had to miss last year at the last minute due to my Mom passing.

Fredjake1 · « **Reply #23 on:** July 04, 2019, 09:39:00 PM »

We probably won’t get there until Friday. Should I look for lodging off site?

It may be hard to find a room in the immediate area. My guess is that they are booked but you can check. There are not many places to get a room. The area is pretty rural. Last year my wife and I decided to go kind of late in the planning and were able to get a room at Millstream Lodging just west of Coudersport. It was a real nice, large room. You can contact the main hotel in Coudersport and see. Maybe some late cancellations or something. Also Wingate Inn. Others may have more suggestions. Those are the two places I know about.

Before moving to idaho from nys I went every year for 20 yrs . used to on Thursday but was so crowded I started going the Monday. Before just to get a spot to camp.
I'd say if you're tent or car camping you can almost find a spot somewhere. If camper or RV definitely get there as early as possibly.
Jealous of you all, man I wish there was a shoot like that out here.

I'll be camped up the hill at the Potter County Family Campground with Gary Hall, Dave Grant, and crew. Yes, you need to pay more to camp than at the shoot itself, but it is well worth it to have more space and bettter shower facilities. It's a quick drive down to the shoot. We make reservations for the next year before leaving each year. We're always in sites 21 - 23. Stop by and say hello if you're in the campground.

We are heading up early hoping to get a spot for a large camper , Fredjake1 camping with your son there will be fun so many things for kids to do , you should be able to get a tent spot late. I have seen the staff help find one for campers and tents , The best time we had was camping when our son was 9 and Stacey Grosscup spent time with all the kids . But bring boots warm and cold weather gear. Hope to see you all there.

We will be heading up the Monday before. It is a 20..or more hour drive for us and I hope to be there by Tuesday afternoon.

We will have an entirely different set up this year. If you get near it, you won't miss it. I am having a bunch of Rinehart blem targets getting shipped in and with any luck, I should have a new stock of Dark Timber shafts by then as well.

I will have 250+ used bows just waiting to go home with someone besides me

An awesome event! I've been going for the last 12 years.

Rinehart blem targets - I know where my first stop will be Thursday morning

Horney Toad · « **Reply #32 on:** July 14, 2019, 09:49:57 PM »

Be prepared for cold or hot weather, plus bring some rubber boots. One year it got down to 38 degrees at night, lol.

NYRON · « **Reply #33 on:** July 15, 2019, 06:46:43 AM »

We'll be there Tuesday through Sunday.

Stop by the LifeCycle Gear booth and try out a Handy Clicker, our new "Ethic" 3-piece longbow, or our new ILF riser.

...or just stop by to talk...ETAR is a great event with even better people!

For those who might have TURKEY feathers kicking around and are going to ETAR: Bill Semerod will be spliting & grinding Turkey feathers on the spot at ETAR -- TUES & WED (and Possibly after hours Thurs-Sat)before the show starts he will be camping on LEFT side of driveway up before GARAGE where seminars are held.He will most likely will have a display of broadheads at his camp.He did it professionally for quite sometime.AND for those folks who have TURKEY feathers they have no use for I will do some swapping & trading for them. Thanks Tom Phillips (I will be in Old Tyme Photos booth at ETAR).

Can't wait will be there Thursday and hope I can talk Uncle Barry into signing my Once upon a tine book again, had him resign it last year, got a nice 8 point, when he first signed it got a dandy 10, now I don't want to mess with the mojo, wife is going and says I'm not allowed in Big Jim's tent without adult supervision.

Big Jim, do you do trade ins on your used bow selection?

BigJim · « **Reply #38 on:** July 18, 2019, 12:06:25 AM »

I do Bunyan. We do lots of trades.

Thanks, BigJim
