Tom as stated in the MTB site below we can't make it this year because of a wedding that I am in but THE PREZ Les came over to the house the other day and we worked on new shooting stakes and welded re-rod for the 3-D targets for this years shoot. The new re-rod will make life a lot easier when you set up the 3 D targets.

I am sure, as years in the past this will be another great shoot and Chris and I are sorry we can't make it.

By the way, non-member prices are higher due to the fact that special insurance needed to be purchased by the club. Members are covered under the MTB insurance policy.

I wish I could have gone!

I've never been to any shoot, and never shot a 3D target.  My sons would go absolutely ape to shoot at the great 2D targets like I saw posted on page 2, and Dad would enjoy it too!     :biglaugh:  

I'd love to get together with some other traditional archers and enjoy the camaraderie and glean wisdom from seasoned stick & string shooters.

Looks like a great time.  That canoe shoot is an excellent idea!

I missed last year because of my health. I plan on driving from Ga up this year and helping out. Always have a great time with a bunch of great people.

Ryan,If you ever do get a break from your worthy day job, please contact some of us on here and come on. The month of June would be a great time to come if you want to shoot. Cloverdale,IN then Compton,then Grayling. Three of the best shoots around,three weekends in a row. Have a great day.

I enjoy just going there to relax and have fun. I love the 2d targets, and having the 2 courses to shoot means that it is almost a walk through when its shooting time.  I have been going to this shoot for the past 8 years or so and will miss my nephews graduation party this year because of it. If you show up and see a set of twins shooting say hi!  Enjoy and "Life is good"

Okay last year I spent all my money at Compton, had a good time but couldn't make it up there to the MTB shoot. This year I have to miss Compton. One of my brothers lives by Higgins Lake near Grayling and I'm 99% sure I can make it up there this year for the weekend. I love it up there and I can vouch for the Bear's Den pizza joint.

What are the prices looking like for this year? Will I be able to grab feathers and arrow making stuff?

Never mind, just checked out the Events forum, prices are listed with place and dates, etc...

I think I hear Tim Allen's voice...

Okay, I just figured out that I have NOT missed this shoot! The original post was 3 years ago!

The 2-D's are amazing!

I have a small shoot here at home that I will not miss. The MTB sounds alot like it. The landscape is awesome. I would like to make it!

Was out to the sportsman club 3-D course last week. Bring your bug spray as the mosquitos are super thick this year, I've never seen the pond so high before or the woods that wet.

I went for the first time last year, it was beautiful, quiet, lots to do for the family, and I'll be going to camp and shoot every year I can.

I had a great time there. Great courses,awesome terrain,unique targets. I'm going again this year. The only gripe I have is gas prices. But,I can't do much about that. Fun shoot guys. If you have'nt went,you owe it to yourself to check it out.  rat'
