RedTx, Some of us live in the Dallas area, some around Canton, Some around Denton. Denton has a trad club and has 3D. I have been wanting to check it out, just have not yet.

Sorry should have said.  Flower Mound is north of Dallas.  There was a trad shoot a few weeks back in Denton but didnt get the info till it was to late.

I would like to make it to the shoots farther away but it is kind of tough right due to my kid, and my wifes crazy work schedule.

TBOT is very active in the state and there are many traditional 3-D shoots all over the state throughout the year. May have to drive aways to get to some of them but most are well worth it. I am sure TBOT's web site has a list of some if not most of them.

Between now and June there are several outstanding 3-D shoots to be had. The closest is the Texas State Long Bow Championships being held Memorial Day weekend in Ft. Worth. The weekend before that there is a great shoot in Chester. Another good one will be held in Vanderpool the second weekend in April. Hope to meet up with you sometime soon.  :wavey:

We have shooters from all over the area and shoots around also.
Matter of fact J and C is putting on a shoot this coming Sunday in conjunction with PDBH club. March 24th
 
Also guys, check out TBOT.org for the Traditional Bowhunters of Texas shoot schedule. They're good shoots and don't break the bank to have fun.
 Memphis (Rolling Plains Sportsman Club) and Wellington (Sagebrush Archery) I am most familiar with.
 Leedy OK good also, contact Mike's Archery in Leedey.
