Title: Trad shop and shoots in W Nebraska???
Post by: Caleb the bow breaker on February 26, 2008, 04:51:00 PM
Been in this traditional game for about 4 years now and feel a little bit cheated and jealous of others because I have never been to a tradtional shop or big traditional shoot.  Does anybody know of a good shops or a meet or Rendevous in central to western Nebraska.  Would like to see and touch stuff.  Would like to try some bows and talk to people with my interests.  Catalogs and the internet are great but there is nothing like really being there.

Caleb, head out to the Colorado Traditional Archer's Society High Country Shoot in late June.  You can stop at Rocky Mountain Specialty Gear in Denver on your way.  You can shoot bows and hang with a few hundred other trad guys in some beautiful country.

Caleb this group has several shoots each year. Not trad only but there are some trad shooters there.
Used to shoot with the guys here when I live in NE. Great bunch of guys and the range is really cool. If you want some names to contact send me an e-mail. By the way what part of NE you from?  (http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o241/galnmax/img009.jpg)

Caleb, I,m from outstate Nebraska, and as far as traditional only I think you have to go back to the eastern part of the state, I don,t know for sure where your at but I see we come from simular working backgrounds, I was a full time fishing guide in western Nebraska for 22 years, now just part time due to the drought and are sick lakes, you got your work cut out to restore these lakes. Guided on Big Mac, Elwood res. tri county lakes and some in Kansas. Give me a holler maybe we can start something, there is at least 2 of us.

Caleb and Dan, toss me into the mix. I spend most time shooting alone but am open to a joint venture here and there. Trying to get the grandkids involved, so I'm sure we could find a weekend.
