Had a great day down at Three Trails Chili shoot with several of Trad Gangs best.
Here are some of the pictures.
From left to right...myself, Tom Porter (Gatekeeper), Mike Cashen, Ben Saye (Ksbowman), John, and Lonny (Anchorman). Jeremy Rapp and his son Samuel shot with us and entertained us early in the morning as well.

Looks like fun.
I like that skunk quiver.
Looks like a great way to spend the day.
Nothing like a warm spring days after a long winter to make for a great bow shooting time. I enjoyed the shoot a bunch! Thanks to Mike Cashen and Bob Burns and all the folks with three trails who put on a great event.
Gotta give Lonny (Anchorman) some serious props. The guy trudged through 80 targets up and down a muddy trail with a long leg knee immobilizer after having an avulsion of his knee cap and quad tendon. The dude is pretty tough.

Looks like a great time. Good stuff. :thumbsup:
:thumbsup: Great pics! Lots of fun for sure.
Now that looks like a great way to spend the day.
Shooting in shirt sleeves sure does look like fun! I'm afraid we're a little bit behind you on the spring weather.
Great way to spend a day!
I have seen a few threads on 3D shoots this weekend and it makes me wish I would have hit one as well. Looks like great weather and a good time was had there guys.
Lonny you are the man! I just got up a little bit ago whining how my legs were sore from my boys first baseball practice of the year Sat.! I'm coaching so I did have to move a little! Take care of that leg bud!
I like the skunk quiver cover. Good times
Nothing like a good trad shoot. Just good fun with that laid back feel. Nice pics BTW!

Looks like a blast, glad you guys had fun :)
I had a great time, lots of good company, chili and young Samuel's excitement getting to shoot with the big guys is always amusing. He gave a commentary on most shots good or bad and could tell tell you what vital you hit. His dad's giving him some very good mentoring in hunting. Congrats Jeremy on a fine son!
As always the folks at Three Trails did a great job. Two rounds at 20 targets, all the chili a person can eat, door prizes and a day of shooting with fiends, all for $12. That's hard to beat. :campfire:
The star of our group was seven year old Sam. The shots that seem to impress him the most were spine shots. :jumper: Quote of the day "He's trying to quit." Mike Cashion about Lonnie's damaged knee. :laughing: You had to be there.
Anyone close to KC should make plans to come to their next shoot in April. The date is April 17th. Shoot time is 8-2, the cost is $12 for two rounds of shooting at 20 targets. Chicks and twerps shoot for free. For more information visit there web site. www.threetrailsarchery.com (http://www.threetrailsarchery.com)
Indeed the folks at Three Trails did a great job again. I will second the thoughts on Sam he is a great kid and fun to have around. As far as walking around the trails it wasn't all that difficult to do when you are around good friends and having a good time. I enjoyed it very much..and guys thanks for your assistance...
Thanks for coming guys! We all had a great time. I was a little worried about the turnout after the torrential downpour on Saturday, but that was some of the best weather we had for our chili shoot in 5 years. I loved seeing all the kids there - it really makes the shoot for me. See you next month for the scoring shoot. We'll be camping out on Saturday night and a few folks said they will be doing some pickin' and grinnin' so come on down. Tom, we can have a Scamp rally!
Also, Mike and Brenda Horton of the Nocking Point will be there next shoot as well as Mike Dunnaway from Wild Horse Creek Bows. Mike D. has been getting quite a following for his bows, and watching them perform on the range, I can see why.
Looks like good times I bet everyone had a blast.
I'm a little jealous of your warm tempertures! I have to keep reminding myself that we're still in March though. I really like that picture of all the bows lined up against the fence. Thanks for sharing your pictures!

Good times are hard to beat on the range with friends unless you are in the woods shooting hair.
Bernie,
Don't be too jealous. Last year we had to cancel our chile shoot due to 8 inches of sleet and snow! We just got lucky this year :-)
Dang Chris, those pink feathers and cresting really pop!
Looks like a blast.
No one ever reaches for my arrows by mistake! Heck it makes it easier to find them in the brush!
You are one brave individual Chris. Ben at a chili shoot, that has disater written all over it!! Looks like fun though.
Wish I could have made it but I'm glad you guys had a good time :D
All went well at the hospital today though and I will catch you next time.
Tracy
Looks like a great day, great looking bows and quivers!
Jay
Tracy sent your bow and quiver out today.Let me know what you think of the new textured finish. :thumbsup:
Bill
Tracy,
I think I have your address. Wonder if the UPS driver could be paid off. I can never have enough zipper bows. :bigsmyl: :bigsmyl:
Sorry for the confusion, Chris.What I ment to say is my Tracy (Zipper Bows Boss)sent your bow,and quiver to you yesterday.I did not notice my post was right below K.S.Tracy.As you know I'm easily confused. :goldtooth: Man,I will be glad when this head cold is gone.
Bill
This is great! I couldn't make it this weekend and don't have a trad bow yet, but am planning on attending the April shoot with my family. So excited!
Nice, looks like a great time! Shawn
Three Trails has a great 3D range and top notch members, I recognized a few in the mug shots. I need to make it over in April.
I just want to know...who got skunked :saywhat:
