Title: Any Oklahoma City Tradgangers?
Post by: Nate Fikkert on July 05, 2008, 11:04:00 AM
Hey Guys,

I am going to in Oklahoma City for the next 3 straight weeks for work.  I was wondering if there are any Tradgangers in that area that have anything going on in the evenings or weekends.  Here is the kicker, I won't have a vehicle or any other sort of transportation.  I don't want to inconvenience anyone but I thought if something could be worked out it is always good to meet other Tradgangers.

Thanks,

Nathan

If you get close to Tulsa I could probably be coerced into a little bowfishing.

A strange near-silence to your inquiry, Nate. I grew up in Okie City and even in the late '50s and early '60s archery was extremely lively there. By age 8 I was shooting in weekend tournaments. At 16 when I could drive, I joined the local club and we had both an early 3D range (paper targets on hay bales, but arranged in a roving course like today) and a winter indoor range. Betty Grubbs was the female national champion and shot paper plates out of the air at football game halftimes. How did we do so well and have so much social interaction way back then, when the highest communication technology was the rotary-dial telephone? Some things gained, some things lost, as with all of life and what we call "progress." ex-Okie dave

Nate,
  Where are you going to be?  I work near the capital every day @ the Medical Examiner's office.  On the 19th there is a 3D tournament in my neck of the woods.  Send me a private message if you are interested.

Nathan,

I am just a few miles east in Shawnee, but am in the city with business regularly. I am also planning on hitting the 3D tournament that Timothy mentioned. Feel free to PM me, as well.
