Whidbey Island Jan-Mar flyer 3D shoots

[NWWABOWHNTR]

Whidbey Bowmens club will be hosting 5 3D shoots this year,  the first 3 which are January through March are on this flyer.  For those of you who have attended our shoots you know how much fun our course is, come on out and enjoy our 32 3D targets.  We are 95% rhinehart targets now and by March hope to 100% as we will be ordering even more at the ATA show.  There is camping available (free) but no hookups.  Breakfast and lunch will be available for all of our shoots.  Saturdays are always a casual start 8AM to 2PM and Sunday will be shotgun start at 9AM.  Hope to see many of you at the shoots this year.  For those of you who are interested the WSAA has posted the 2011 shoot Calendar and the pocket calendar which that one is available here...

Thanks for the info NWW.  I have enough arrows for my longbow now (maybe I better order another couple dozen the way I shoot).  Whats the location of the shoots?

 I've been practicing all year (but noth enough) my skill level was not up to hunting with the stick this year, hopefully if I shoot the 3d's this year I will be up to snuff for the 2011 season with the stick.

I found this year that shooting a longbow is not like riding a bike, you can forget!  20 years of shooting training wheels really lays on the rust for something you used to be able to do.

i dont know if im more pumped for 3-d season or late season! what exactly is this buckle shoot? i cant really find any info on it.

[pips4bucks]

I believe you have to participate in all three buckle shoots to qualify to win a buckle.  Your scores from all 3 shoots are totaled together and if you shoot the best you win a buckle.

FYI... There is an additional cost if you wish to compete for a buckle.

[Button Nubbs]

What is the cost and do you have to pay at each of the 3 events?

[NWWABOWHNTR]

ALright here is some clarification... the buckleshoot listed on this flyer is the one that has been around for the last 6 years.  To qualify you pay extra (1 time fee) to be in the buckle shoot,  it is the combined scores from Sunday of the 3 shoots listed on the flyer.  The winner of each division is awarded a brass buckle.  

THere is a new buckle shoot which is not on this particular flyer.  That shoot is a combination of the 3 shoots at WHidbey in July, KBH archers in late July and Wapiti in August.  Same format,  SUnday scores from all 3 shoots.  

Now the individual shoots are above and beyond the Buckle,  each individual shoot is $10 a day,  if you have a large family you max out at $43.

hey NWWA. im getting into trad. any bows for sale?

[D-Rock425]

Thanks for clearing that up.  Can't wait until January for 3-D shoots.  I looked at the schedule and there isn't many weekends I wont be shooting somewhere.  I'm going to try really hard to shoot the IBO shoots this year

[Shootmoore]

Thanks for the extra info and map NWW.  If I pay $20 instead of $10 can I shoot double the arrows?  I'm just trying to avoid last place!

LOL  Now that is the spirit!  Who cares about the score anyway... come out and have fun.  That is whats great about 3D at the club level... its more about having fun and enjoying the day with friends. 

Let-it-fly..... I may have a few bows for sale if you are interested.  Depends what you are looking for.  Sucks for me is I tore a deltoid muscle and am not sure when I will be shooting again....    At least it was the left shoulder,  so hopefully it won't be to long a recovery,  I am already cheating shooting a 32# bow for indoors.  Just not ready for any 3D yet.
