I just got back from my first trad shoot sponsored by Strictly Sticks Traditional Archers. Some guy on here named Bob Hildenbrand invited me out and man am I glad I accepted. I was greeted kindly by everyone I met.I shot with 3 other gentlemen that were my kind of people. I had the oppurtunity to try other bows and pick up some helpful pointers and info.
Today was the most fun I've had at a 3D shoot in years. The course was filled with realistic hunting shots that were all challenging in their own way. Average distance was 13 to 18 yds with a few closer and 1 or 2 a little further.
Yes, I am hooked on this Trad deal and after today have the confidence to continue shooting and try to be ready for my first trad archery season this year.
Thanks, Bob. :archer2:
Bob is a great guy he schould have warned you that it is a very adictive drug that you only need to do one time to get hooked on it. You will meet the best people at a trad shoot injoy! Widow
Way to go! Enjoy the addiction!

I'm glad Bob hooked you up with us, the pleasure was all mine. Thanks for sticking a couple in the dirt to make me feel good. Look forward to getting together again.
Welcome to the greastest sport in the world ...
I'm Dr. Toxo the bowhunting clown. I do bowcaine.
I was at the shoot today too. I try to make it to each of their monthly winter shoots. This one was nice with sunny 40 degree temps and no snow! I heard there were 85 shooters there today, almost a record.
Good people, good time.
Bill, Thanks to you guys many times over. I enjoyed shooting with you and would be glad to do it again.
Yeh guys. Put a fork in Kevin...he is done:^)
We did have 85 shooters today. thanks for coming out.
We will be posting the info for our March gig pretty soon. We're gonna do a two day with camping and a coon shoot on Saturday night.
Bob, Please do post March info. I have heard about the strictly sticks shoots before, just haven't been able to make it yet. But I am definately interested, I have heard nothing but good things.
