P.J.,

You did a great job with all you had to handle.  From an attendee's perspective, everything went amazingly well.  The entire club is to be congratulated for putting on a GREAT event!

It was wonderful to see you and Leslie again, and I got a kick out of watching Ian in action (do I owe you for the hat I reminded him you were supposed to buy?!?!)

Thanks for all you did!

Traditional bowhunting is often a game of seconds... and inches!

John, I loved your pictures and narrative.  Thanks for sharing both.  :thumbsup:
The years accumulate on old friendships like tree rings, during which time a kind of unspoken care and loyalty accrue between men.

Good photos John of a fantastic camping area.

I have traveled to a few shoots in my day and this course (targets and layout) was the absolute best ever. Great work Cloverdale folks! I'll definitely be back next year.

Dang it! I planned a 35th wedding anniversary trip to Alaska and didn't realize it until a few weeks before Cloverdale that I messed up.

I had to look at the stranger pic for a second or two before I realized it was the Mickey Meister. Looking very distinguished  :)  Mick, email me at jkmolongbow@yahoo.com if you look at this thread.

Good old times for sure. It's a great time, great course.

Otto, Saw your guns on the other site. Back in the game after many years. Doing the bowling pin shoot thing. Reloading and the whole sheebang!
When a man shoots with a bow it is own vigor of body that drives the arrow,  his own mind controls the missile's flight......His trained muscles and toughened thews have done the work

My son; daughter inlaw and I were there Friday and Saturday. The weather was good and it's always a good time.Nice 3d coarse. Seemed like less people on Saturday this year. Might be the economy and gas prices.

It's been in my blood for 40 plus  years.
It's priceless!

Dennis,

The coon shot was well planned and organized  :)

Actually about 30 minutes before dark I asked my brother and he said yes and then asked Ron and he said yess and then 40 minutes later about 12 other said yes.  It was a hoot!

John Lipinski, my brother and I were camped a couple doors down with a few kids and a pretty camp decoration and her ugly husband.  We hope to see you again next year.

Krause, you were missed.  Next time remember about the blackout dates that are generally the second weekend of June.
Take a kid hunting!

I love this shoot.  Made some wonderful friends and always have a great time.  Thanks to Ron and Steve for lending us their camp.  It's great to have Blacky and Danny back in the states.  The Scifres brothers were in fine form.  Wish I could have made the Coon shoot. Mickey it was nice to see you after a few absent summers.  The crew from Bear Archery even made it to our camp on Saturday.  They will never be the same.  Dennis you haver a fine boy there.  Tell him I can't wait til next year.  Unfortunately I do not have any pictures.  I was pretty busy all weekend.Thanks to all that make this shoot great.  The members at Cloverdale just do a fantastic job.

My daughter and I got there Saturday afternoon and stayed till Sunday noon. This was our first time but probably won't be the last. Shot the top 20 and the 10 Saturday saving the second 20 for Sunday. Both of us shot poorly but had a good time. Went really slow due to the slippery up and down of the courses. Not very many in the 5 zone but most all hit the targets. Got a picture of one of the few good hits I made. Mine is the black arrow.

I haven't been for 4 years now. Seems like something has come up each time. This year, it was our best friend's 25th Anniversary, so we thought we'd be nice and go on a 7 day Caribbean cruise with them (sigh). Maybe next year though! My youngest daughter is itching to do some camping again. My wife thinks camping is done in a camper. Ha! Much to learn, this one has...
