Post by: Deadbolt on May 02, 2008, 11:06:00 PM
Well here in N J we had our annual Trad Shoot that gets hosted by a local bow club and it is a great time to be had.

Its not just shooting its camping with the guys telling stories and just having a blast!  Here are a few pics...sorry no action shots no room for camera w/ the new quiver LOL.

The ROWDEY group!

Cool! It's nice to share a campfire with those who share the same passion for traditional archery. Looks like a great time.

I love it!  I wish we had done it earlier in the weekend though...we did it last thing sunday and I was already shot out LOL.  But I love shooting UFOs...I am gonna buy some and do them myself to practice for goose and pheasant.

Well my pup is away at doggy boot comp he should be back in 2 months then i start working him in the fields for birds getting him use to it again.

I'll bring my pup along as we can get a nice group together.  I only have a flusher though (yellow lab) so if anyone has a pointer we could pull off and flush ourselves that would be better IMO...safer for the dogs.

But you know I"m down!  We will have to maybe go to a preserve centralized for everyone.
