Well fellow trad shooting guys and gals, time to put this out there. We have decided to go ahead with our annual trad shoot at Shade Mountain Bowmen this year. After a positive reaction by folks attending Sawmill..( Including myself), We are going to do it..We are a bow only club, so the generated revenue is most needed..! We are also in a county that has had minimal issue with COVID 19..we are cautiously optomistic..!!! So, here are the particulars. It will be the weekend AFTER Labor day weekend. So Sept 11-13. But you may set up earlier..So there will be set-up by Wed. the 9th..! We do have SOME camping, which is free by-the-way. And usually have a descent amount of people who utilize it..! Shade Mtn Bowmen is situated in Beavertown, Pa..one hour north of Harrisburg, Pa. In little old Snyder County. Center of the State. Just follow Rte 522 S to the west end of town and follow the signs posted.
We will have 2 25-30 shot courses..all wooded and very scenic. Over 2 different streams which are bonafide trout streams..IF we arent in some form of drought. We will have a new "Challenge" course set this year, along with another great one as well. Also, the ever popular "Iron Man", 8 shot, 1 arrow match. Great fun..!! Also for this year..our first annual "water bottle shootout"..head to head match..!! Too much fun..! And some other novelties to whet your appetite !!!!! As usual, we will have a VERY AFFORDABLE kitchen open all day. Breakfast, lunch and supper. One of the days will be a chicken BBQ..done over the pit.!!! But hamburgers, hotdogs and other "staples" will also be available. Hope to see a nice crowd as we are planning on making this our finest one ever.!! Always appreciate all the fine fan following we recieve.!! We really cater hard to trad shooters as we ARE trad shooters..!! Will add some more particulars later next week. But any questions for now, ask away..!!! Many thanks in advance !!!!!

I own a hunting camp about 30 miles north of Beavertown. I'm seriously thinking about making a run up there that weekend. I definitely want to attend this shoot.

Come on over..

I'd like to attend this shoot and would be coming from Eastern Ohio by motorcycle. Do you know if there is any problem with travelers from out of state coming into Pa, other than border areas? I looked around online and all I came up with is recommendations for people returning from hotspots.

No...you should be fine. We'd love to have you over.

Thanks, see you there.

Going to be fun. Lots of shooting.

It looks like the weather will be fantastic this weekend! Sunny, 75 degrees, and low humidity! I'm heading up from Virginia as soon as I can get away from work this afternoon. Looking forward to meeting some like-minded folks, and shooting a ton of arrows :archer2:
