A buddy of mine was telling me where to look on the site. I appreciate you taking the time to do this.

I am surprised more guys dont come from out of state to the Grayling event MTB puts on. It takes place at Hanson Hills, which used to be Bear Hill. The Bear Museum used to be located there. To me its "holy ground".

I hear ya Jashu but you have to remember that until last year you had to be a member of MTB to attend.  Hopefully now that that is no longer the case we will start seeing more out of state people attending.  It is a great shoot.  One of my favorites for sure.

Gotta add the Bunny Stomp to the list of great shoots, or at least there's the bunch of great guys that show up.

The Great Lakes Longbow Invitational is an awesome event. Plenty of camping room, 3 28-30 target 3D courses(non competitive)a good amount of vendors and bowyers, lots of stuff for the kids to do, a night shoot, several very fun competition events,as well as the historic Charleton Park village.

A great all around event.


MTB's annual gathering at Grayling is also a tough to beat family archery event. I missed them both last year due to my work schedule, but both of these events are well organized, and a great time.

The camping at either can be anything from an RV to a tent or tipi. The  smells of many campfires, and an untold amount of food cooking over the coals can't be beat.
