Trad expo and shows
« on: December 21, 2011, 07:33:00 PM »
There are not any big Trad shows around these parts. If a fellow could go to only one of the big trad shows which would you recommend.

How long of a drive is it for you to Birmingham Alabama?  The last weekend in February will be the Tannehill shoot hosted by Compton Traditional Bowhunters and All South Archery Association.  Lots of 3D shooting, a bunch of great vendors, and loads of fun!  It would be well worth a trip for you.

ETAR (aka Denton Hill)  More vendors than any show, plus you can shoot till your fingers bleed.

If you can make it to Alabama around the first of June you could take in the 8th annual Howard Hill Southeastern Classic. Really a fantastic event. They have a web site, check it out.  :thumbsup:

Thanks for the replies. Maybe a few of us SC guys could plan a trip to one of these. I have thought about going in the past but they are all just too far to justify driving by myself.

Mike,
The Tannehill Pre Spring Arrow Fling is an outdoor event.  This will be the 3rd annual event held by All South Archery Association.  This year Compton Traditional Bowhunters has teamed up and it should make for one of the best events of the season!

Dates are Feb. 24, 25, 26 at Tannehill State Park near McCalla, AL.  There is plenty of camping available, lots of shooting and a great line up of vendors already committed.  

Send me an email at [email protected] and I'll forward a copy of the ad that is in the most recent Compton magazine "A Walk In The Woods"

Hope to see you there!
