Hey guys,
Last year was a great time, and a great bunch of guys that got together for the winter/spring stump shoot off Rt. 29.
It's not too early to start thinking about doing it again. Who's in?

If I remember correctly, I will want to shoot last, unless you guys dont aim for arrows anymore :smileystooges:
I'll come out and play if I'm not at Ray's. In May though I will be Turkey Hunting and Striper fishing.

There is State Forest Close to where you guys shot last year. Ron pointed it out and said he has stumped there before and people do a lot of horse back riding.
Its not a mountain which could be both good and bad, and looks like there is good parking. just a thought.
Tim, would you be referring to a bow with initials BJ?

It sounds like the place we DID go last year.
State land, lots of parking, and lots of horse back riding. But best of all it has MANY rotten stumps.

Hard water Bowfishing? I have seen guys do it in WI, not a great Idea for stumps but it would be good way to practice with your old bear bow. Just dont set it down you will lose it :knothead: . let me know casey when you want to go, I can come down or you can come up, we'll get you a carp.
Terry may agree with you to do as I say and not as I do ;)
Everyone had a blast last year at the stump shoot, this will be good.

This is shaping up good. I would like to suggest the third or 4th weekend in April at the Rockwood state forest, where we had it last year.
I know it is early to start working on April, but that gives people plenty of time to plan, and RonW was right; cabin fever is setting in.

Well guys, now that it is March, I'm thinking spring isn't far away.
I am thinking that April the 17th would work out pretty good for our shoot, with a start time of 10:00 at the forest. That should give the guys with a bit of a drive plenty of time.
We are talking about a simple stump shoot here with good people and lots of stumps.
The 17th is a Sunday. I am looking for any and all feedback.

also had an idea. how about before or after the shoot we have some type of trade blanket, ya know everyone that has extra gear ( i have a TON)we could give/trade/ or sell, maybe help those out that need a few things? if anyone thinks this would be something they wanted to do i could think about a bit more and have a better game plan. i have a ton of things i could part with and people could use!

There might be a little snow on the ground, or it might be standing water. Either way, wear boots, and you should be good to go.
Sounds like we are going to have more people this year than last year.
It's a stump shoot. How can it not be fun with this group.

I think whatever is in the soil can make them onions addictive. They must fertilize with little zip lock capsules. :readit: I see them little baggies all over the place

Will see Ed either this weekend or Monday. I will Rey to get some good pictures & send them to Ken to post on here. He is the most impressive person I have ever met. Can't wait to shoot with you guys. I'm still on drugs for the hand but hope to be able to shoot. Would it offend anyone if I have to bring a compound if my hand isn't healed? Hate to even ask & hope it isn't an issue by then.

If it doesn't heal to where I can shoot my left handed bows the first thing I will try is switching to righty. I have a 55# @ 28 one piece Pearson RH that my dad bought me 30 yrs ago. Didn't realize it was RH & the guy lied to him about it. Would be so cool to kill something with it. If can't do that then try a release on my trad bows then if all else fails go to wheels. Don't have to go there just yet though.

My hand is healing & I hope to be shooting my lefty bows in another week or so. Won't know til I'm shooting but hopefully!!! Looking so forward to the shoot.

Looking forward to meeting everyone. I get to NY a lot for my wife's family. Would be cool to have some like minded folks to shoot with when I get tired of the in-laws homestead.
Extra gear is an understatement...lol
Went all trad 18months ago and have 8 LBs and 2 RCs on my bow rack...don't even get me started on the small stuff!

Cant wait fellas. Should be shooting again. Hate to say, we are looking at more snow Friday if the weather man is right. I know, they usually aren't but lets hope that they have it wrong.

Charlie, That equipment doesnt sound very traditional :readit: :biglaugh:
Hopefully Ken will come through with an address soon.
Antonio, there are a few great Guys around the Newburgh area for future NY visits.
I think Thorny is right. Numbers would be an orderly way to play. If people are all set with gear they can "pass the buck".

If you go to Mapquest maps, and type in Rockwood state forest, a map will pop up. Then just click on directions, and voila.

QuoteCharlie, That equipment doesnt sound very traditional.Equipment? It will be printed out here at work and then stuck in the pages of my 20 year old New York Gazeteer topo map book . . . and most likely then both left on the kitchen counter Sunday morning beside my finger tab. :banghead:
I'm doomed. I typed in Rockwood State Forest and it gave me directions to Tennessee. I kid you not. :biglaugh: They'll find my bones in the summer along some Adirondak logging road.

Look at your Gazetteer and find Johnstown N.Y.. Then follow Rt. 29 west for about 8 miles give or take. That's where Rockwood State Forest is. Big parking area on the south side of the road. Not sure where your coming from but that will get you there!! :readit:

Charlie,
Try Rockwood state forest, Johnstown NY. If you drive to Tennessee, I bet you would win Ron W.'s furthest traveled award. :readit:
If you head out on 29, you would see a big group of cars on the left hand side of the road if you follow Google maps recommended travel routes.
I'd offer you my spare set of tabs but I'd probably leave them on my table too.

Getting closer now. Can't wait guys. We will have a good time. Shot the course in Vernon Center today. Great course. The shoot next Sunday should be a blast. Hope to see some of you there. Prizes, raffles & $5 breakfast for those who are interested. The shooting is great, but meeting & talking to other trad guys really make it a joy.

If we get 1/2 of the people that showed interest, it will be a big group. I have shot at a lot of leafs and so on, but never as many actual stumps as there are here. Rain or shine, it should be fun for all.
Don't forget about the trade blanket.
