While it seems like the rain likes to fall during the Cloverdale shoot, the course and grounds get no muddier than any other shoot I have been to.

 No one can control if it is going to rain at any shoot. I have attended most of the major shoots at one time or another and they all get muddy after a rain. You get that many people having fun on any club grounds, it is going to get soupy.

 I feel Cloverdale sets the best course of ANY club I have ever been to. The only time I miss that shoot is when it just cant be avoided.

Best range you'll ever shoot, period!  Over 200 animals set in scenarios over the 40 target course.  Nobody else that I know does that.  The shots all have some sort of back stop so you don't lose arrows or wait forever for those who do.  There are lots of vendors as well as blanket swaps.  Food available on the grounds. Man I can't wait for Cloverdale every year--hard to believe you Indiana guys haven't been.  I drive from West Virginia but used to live in Madison, Indiana.  That was over 25 years ago and I sure miss it to this day--still feels like I'm "back home again in Indiana" every time I go there.   :)
