Moses Lake Traditional Shoot April 16/17
« on: April 07, 2011, 10:24:53 PM »
Just curious if any of you other Trad shooters will be making the Moses Lake TBW shoot?  It actually opens on Friday, and runs through Sunday.  This is hands down the most fun shoot I have ever been to.  Great camping, great people and you can shoot till your arms fall off..... Can't remember for sure but I think there is 3 3D courses setup (might have been 4... CRS kicking in).  I'll post some pics from last year, and the flyer....

I have had a lot of fun there, but cannot afford the fuel to drive out to Stratford, also interferes with my Turkey season.
Definately a good shoot, if you bring plenty of arrows, my first year there I started with 18, went home with 6, my wife brought 2 home, but my daughter only broke 3 (10# bow),, would have brought more, but with arrows for my wife  and daughter we figured buying a dozen new arrows apiece (for one trip) would be enough  :chuckle:
Should have brought all our arrows.
I will look forward to the Packwood (if the Baker Ranch is not sold) this year

I don't consider myself a traditional shooter but I have done this shoot and it is a blast.  I am going to try and make it for Saturday even though I haven't shot my recurve in ages.

What, you never "accidently" hit one of your own, or another guys arrow ?  :chuckle:
Actually If you have ever done this shoot, you know what really happens.....
Anybody that does not break an arrow on this course isnt really shooting it, thats why they have the "one arrow" shoot for $$$
figure one arrow a round, 4 rounds a day, 4 days, = 16 arrows broken, I did O.K.

Awesome shoot!  Got to shoot with Jon, Jake and Don most of the weekend... Even spotted Ray down below us on one of the courses sporting that nice quiver he won at the TBW banquet this year.  We shot over 160 targets... 40 each round... and on all but the scoring round we pretty much were emptying our quivers from various ranges challenging each other... I will say buy stock in cedar shafts.... there was plenty sacrificed to the archery gods!  :-)
I did finally win something from a raffle... very nice leather back quiver and arm guard.....  :IBCOOL:  Props to the TBW and those that put on the shoot!

Great shoot. I only sacrificed two arrows to the rock gods - one ash and one carbon. For most of the shoot I used one Cedar arrow, except when two targets were presented.

Congratulations on your win. I was surprised to see the huge turnout. It made it better for sure and I got to shoot a round with Gail Martin of Martin Archery and talk about pronghorn hunting in Wyoming. Neat.
