I just got back from there this past weekend. I was attending a scoring clinic and was able to walk through the museum several times. Lots and lots of archery history and animal mounts. If any of you guys are in the area you owe it to yourself to stop by for a visit.

I've been there, very nice, a lot to see and take in, especially for the traditional archer. Plus, there is a great trad archery shop just up the road in Rochester- The Footed Shaft.
