Longbow enthusiasts from far and wide are invited to attend and participate. 3 great 3D courses, provided by Frankemuth Forrest Archers and Land O' Lakes Archers. Great events, including the Silver Arrow, the Ol' Sagamore Turkey Shoot, and much, much more.

the wife and i will be there, coming from NE Wisconsin, decided not to pull the camper that far, plus having to go thru Chicago! So we are taking the ferry across to Ludington, and staying in a tent on the grounds, like we did years ago, when it was in Berrin Springs, cant wait!

You can come and just visit Ron. Tracey is saving a hug or two for you

Is it traditional longbows only? I am asking specifically because I have a Martin savannah which is a pretty heavy r/d. Wish I still had my northern mist.
-
All longbows, including 3 piece take down r/d longbows, , regular R/D longbows,( St Joe River
Shrews, Strikers, etc) ASLs, selfbows, and even those Bear Polars qualify. The string can not touch the belly of the bow.
Bring that bow out and come join in the fun!

Mr. Ron, it's good to hear you will make it out this year, considering the surgery. How is recovery going?

Planning on making the 490 mile drive from Western NY again this year with my son. The folks there in MI are top shelf, a great weekend for sure.

Always awesome to see you make that trek, Longrifle!
