Did I miss the photos of americanhunter7

Tracy and I realy enjoyed our day at the shoot.Next year we are going to have to try to make a weekend of it, instead of just one day.We deffinately did not want to leave Sat. night.The shoot was layed out very nice.We realy enjoyed the Bison targets and especialy the moose target.You just dont get to shoot at something that big very often.

We shot both courses with Little Jake.That boy knows how to shoot, and a fine young man to boot.We realy enjoyed having him along.Hopefully our group ribbing each other, did not effect his score to much.It was nice to go to a shoot and actualy get to shoot!Although there was still plenty of time to get around and talk to everyone.That is one of the things that makes these shoots so much fun.We had a great talk with Kentucky TJ.I realy enjoyed meeting him.He is a very easy guy to get along with.

Cant wait till next year!

Jimmy Meadows was nice enough to invite Danny TwoHats and I from Charlottesville Virginia (Just 8hrs away) to ride with him to his home and to this shoot.  His hospitality was second to none.  Well done people.  Very nice ranges and a top notch facility.  Looks like you might have some more campers next year.  I got to see many of my PBS brothers enjoying the shoot.  My fingers are still sore from all the shooting.  I have to note that Danny not once, but twice, pinwheeled the Iron Turkey....      I would also like to point out that there were many vintage bows and tackle for sale.  More than any other shoot I have attended.(That includes Denton Hill)  Had a great time.  Thanks for putting on a great shoot.  Maybe Danny with post some of the pictures he took for us.

Hey John. You better get them eyes checked old buddy, I am getting older and uglier! You ought to try to make it to the Tenn. Classic, you would love it. Folks, I met so many of you, and I am terrible with remembering names, but I enjoyed meeting you all. I really enjoyed the kids looking at the knives and acoutrements, the sparkle in their eyes, reminded me of when I was a kid, and looking at the guns, knives, and old muzzleloaders of the oldtimers that were still around and how they took the time to answer all my questions. They lit a fire that hasnt died yet!

I want to express my appreciation for the great job the KTBA did hosting this event. This was my very first TRAD event, won't be my last. Thoroughly enjoyed getting to meet Mark Murphy (and Emily) , Tom Jenkins, Big Jim and many others. Great seeing Dave Cash again also. Great people!

Special thanks to Doug Catlett for tolerating a newbie shooting with him and his boys. I enjoyed it so much. I LOVE SHOOTING MY TRADITIONAL LONGBOW!

We were glad to have you along with us Bill. I thought you shot that Stinger of yours real well also!

I, too, was glad to meet Dave as well, among the others I mentioned earlier. You're right, great people plus a great time.

I think the tradfest went over great. I did not get to see alot of people becuse i was in Rod Jenkins shooting class, but I can say the class was great. A big Thank You to the KTBA and all the members of the shooting club. Would also like to thank Rod Jenkins for all the work he did with the class. I know have alot of work to do on my shooting form. To the other classmates it was great to have meet you all and hope we can shoot together agian someday. Thank you KTBA.

mt zion, we will just make a date to shoot together. May14-15 we are havingf a 50 target 2 day campout shoot as a fundraiser for the Mercer County Fish and Game Club. Saturday is Traditional only, Sunday is either trad or compounds. Combined score from both days wins the title of "Ironman" You can also camp friday and saturday night if you wish. The last 2 years a fellow shot longbow both days and won!
This is of course an invite to all !

I am in agreement that this event was a big deal. My first time to be a vendor. Met lots of new folks and the folks I already knew from KTBA. I have been attending thier shoots for a number of years and had no doubt they could pull this one off. In style I might add. I will be back next year for sure. It will be bigger then I am sure.

Hey guys, I just found this post. I can say, we (KTBA) are overwhelmed with the great turn-out and kind words from all that attended.  Really glad everyone had a great time, can't wait for 2012!

Update for all you TG members about KY Tradfest. I just got an e-mail from Gene Murphy about the number of shooters in attendance. Gene said that there were a total of 282 shooters at the 1st Annual Tradfest. I'd say that's a pretty good start for the event.

Here are some shots from our group

Glad to see you got some pics up TwoHats looks like your group more than took care of that big ole Moose. Glad to see other peoples pics, I didn't get too many pics of people on the range.
