Title: 2017 HOWARD HILL SOUTHEASTERN CLASSIC
Post by: T. W. Harris on March 01, 2017, 07:51:00 PM
Folks, the 13th Annual Howard Hill Southeastern Classic will be going on June 2nd, 3rd & 4th, 2017 at Tannehill Historical State Park in McCalla, AL.
 www.tannehill.org (http://www.tannehill.org)

Again, it is a multi round format with the highest score over the course of the weekend winning.  The 1st round card turned in by 2:30 pm on Saturday afternoon will determine what 30 men & 15 women will be in the Championship Shoot-off, Saturday evening. The winner, Man & Woman, will receive a Howard Hill Longbow.  

Plenty of door prizes will be given away free during supper Saturday night.

I started a separate thread concerning this year's "ONE SHOT~ONE KILL" competition.   DON'T MISS READING ABOUT IT.  IT'S GONNA BE SPECIAL!!!

I'll be adding Vendors and other information along the way.

I see this is a Howard hill event, are recurves allowed to shoot? My family and I really enjoyed the spring fling shoot and tannehill park itself but currently I only own recurve bows.

Absolutely Julian, longbow, recurve and self bow are welcome.  Classes for each, men & women.

As a matter of fact, check out my post on the "ONE SHOT~ONE KILL", you'll find it interesting for you recurve shooters.

That's good to know, tannehill is a really nice place. We stayed in the small cabins and they were perfect for us and very reasonably priced. We wouldn't have been able to stay otherwise my little girl isn't quite old enough for winter tent camping just yet. I am looking forward to making it back up for this shoot.

Bisch, come on over. You will enjoy it a lot. I went to the third one and have not missed one since. If you do make it over, I would like to meet you. This is one of the better shoots I attend.

Is there a flyer or anything on this shoot that shows cost to shoot? We went to the spring fling and had a blast! Would love to attend this one as well.

Last year's Howard Hill and this year's Spring Fling were my first outings.    A great feature is the experience on the practice range.  You can watch other shooter's technique and if you ask politely, you may get to try others' equipment.    Making new friends on the shooting trail is as fun as the shooting.  I "camp out" at the Best Western on Academy Lane, Bessemer exit about 10 miles away.

Hey Terry, thanks for the leg work setting up these shoots at Tannehill.   Lots of fun, went last year for the first time.   Then I did the Pre Spring Fling 2017.   Meet trad'guys, try their stuff, hump the course, pull arrows out of trees, talk to vendors, had a beaver tail grip installed on my Savanah, etc. good fun.  I camp out at the Best Western on Academy Ln. about 10 miles away in Bessemer.

Is there a webpage or anything for the shoot? I will only make it on Saturday and was wondering if there was a course that you can just shoot? My oldest may want to shoot as well but I don't think either of us are up to any competitive level rounds, lol.
Title: Re: 2017 HOWARD HILL SOUTHEASTERN CLASSIC
Post by: pappy on April 26, 2017, 04:37:00 AM
Not sure about a web site but I know he has a range for fun to just shoot if you don't want to compete. Love you verse at the bottom Lucas.

There is only one course, thirty targets and for $20.00 you can shoot the course all day.

Folks,several of you have been asking about those BIG BLOCK TARGETS, well,  Adam Hammond will be here with his Block Targets.

Here's what Steve Pate says about them.

"Terry, these are really nicely made.  Just a little more uniform & thinner than the others."

If you're looking for a target that will last you a long time, now's the time to get one.
