We are working on a couple of other fun events at the shoot. It looks like we will be doing a string shoot in addition to the standard 3d. Basically a string shoot is unmarked targets along the sting. You can move forward on the string but NOT back. No one tells you how many targets, and there are no markings. You can only leave the string to retrieve arrows. At the end of the string you hand over your score card.  We have some venders that will be giving demonstrations at the 3d as well.  There is some room for camping. There are places to park your motor home, or trailer. We also will have a few places for tents. A few spots will have enough space for a wall tent. If you have any questions, or suggestions feel free to PM me.
