Carolina Traditional Archers is in North Carolina, but it's not too far from upstate SC (range in Maiden which is near Lincolnton).  We have a Club Shoot the second Saturday of the month.   www.thecta.org  is our website.

Hey guys I live in Antreville we need to get together and shoot sometime. I could use some instructions as I'm fairly new to traditional archery and was looking for someone to show me the ropes.

Rod, I used to camp some at Calhoun Falls state park. Hunted around that area before they built the lake. You are  right in the middle of gods country. Beautiful area.
I am in Simpsonville

Lake Russell is nice but I do miss the Savannah River and Rocky River bottoms I used to hunt before they built the lake. The hunting is still good but like many other towns it's hurting since almost all the textiles mills have closed.
  I still cherish those Saturday mornings sitting around the check stations waiting for the hunters to come by with their deer and their stories...and it was even sweeter when I had my own story to tell!
  I think those check stations brought more new hunters to the sport than any other reason. I wish the DNR wouldn't have stopped checking 'em.

Rod, I remember those days. We use to ride up to the check station just to see what came in.
