I just went to a northern NY multi day archery shoot and camped out for three days. I'd like to see some photos of your camp set ups for various archery shoots. Looking for some ideas and suggestions for set ups, equipment, etc.

For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people's sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation.

I don't have any pics, but I have a little popup camper that I bought just for taking to shoots. I really like staying right at the shoot rather than leaving and going off to a hotel. It just seems like I am missing things when I go off to a hotel.

I am a tent type of guy.  When I go camping, I like to sleep on the ground, not it a mobile home.  I do however enjoy having a pop-up tent to go over the picnic table/chairs just to not be confined in the tent when the weather is sub-par.  Here are a couple photos from a shoot my father and I attended a couple weeks ago in Northern Illinois.

Large Coleman tent with a picnic table covered.  


Prime reason for the shelter over the table:  Still have Spam and Eggs in the morning while it's raining.


I'll tell you though, this was the first time I've ever been to a shoot and camped.  Usually just go shoot one day and leave.  We had a blast!  Caught a walleye, handful of catfish, and just sat around camp and enjoyed each other's company.  Dad still puts a good whooping on me in backgammon though, not sure I'll ever win!

Spam and eggs.  Dang, I forgot about that! My Mom used to cook that for my Dad and me about 50 years ago.

I've tried it a few times but the last time was just too much.  Between the screaming kids running through my camp and me having to scrape the dog poop off my boots I've decided that somewhere else other than the shoots is where I'll stay.

We used to tent it. Made a family affair out of 4 day shoot. We camped away from the group. My special was Spam and scrambled eggs with some bacon mixed in. These days it will be off the ground.

Jumping Jack or Springbar tent.  The Jack is easy to setup, even in the dark and makes my wife want to go too.

One or two nighter: air mattress in the Ford Explorer.

Three nights or more: 12 x 12 tent and a cot. To quote a friend, "One man in an eight man tent is Zen-like".

I always take a pop up canopy with two sides, lounge lawn chair, small table, and cooler of PBR's.  ;)

My brothers 78 Cox camper. Took it to Denton Hill this year and going to do a hunt out of it in Oct. Works great.

Just realized I have no pictures of my camps. for a 3 nighter I take a 4 man Kelty tent, cot and 10x10 pop up and cook under it. For a two nighter I just take my 2 man Eureka and sleep on the ground. I buy food at this shoot.

Ha, found one. An old one but the camp hasn't changed much.

We started with a tent, then a pop up, then a trailer, then a bigger trailer, then an R-V.  Enough was enough, with the big trailer or the R-V, why bother leaving home?  We are now back to a tent, a Kodiak 10x14.    :cool:

This is my set-up but I usually only use it to sleep.
