Title: It's that time of year again, Bownanza July 23, 24, 25, 2010!!!!!!!!
Post by: WonkyWapiti on July 05, 2010, 08:33:01 PM: Come one come all, rookies, pros, and the in between. We have something for everyone at this year's 2010 Bownanza at Cedar River Bowmen. This year we have over $12,000.00 in prizes. For those who have been before you know how much fun it is. For those that have never been, you won't regret this weekend of fun in the sun with your fellow archers. I hope to see many of you there. This year should be awesome!!! I've included the link to the flier.

Post by: WonkyWapiti on July 15, 2010, 07:30:20 PM: Ok well I'm still waiting to hear about the one I was initially talking about but sounds like we will have some people with booths for the first time this year. I believe the Spott-Hogg team will be there and will have a booth set up as well as a couple of others. I'll give a hint tho, if our "special guest" is there it sounds like we will be having an elk calling seminar!

Post by: WonkyWapiti on July 25, 2010, 08:16:09 PM: Ok, I'm exhausted after just getting back home. After shooting all day with my daughter on both days, working the cook shack in the afternoons, and then helping run the coon shoot after dark on Friday and Saturday night I am pooped! Thanks to all that attended and helped make this another succesful shoot. I'm not sure what the final count was but I know we hit the 300 shooter mark this morning.

If you guys went, I'd love to hear what you guys liked and what you didn't so we can improve next year. Stay tuned for our upcoming marked yardage 3d shoot the weekend of August 7th.

Post by: JBar on July 26, 2010, 03:23:42 PM: Great job as usual for CRB! The shoot was great the people were great and the food was great! Only have two minor issues, didn't like how you had to shoot back across the trail on target 27 (I think) and the long money shots should have had a womens stake, I don't think my wifes bow had enough poop to make it to either polar bear :chuckle:. Again Awsome job CRB!

Post by: D-Rock425 on July 26, 2010, 05:37:15 PM: I agree about target 27 couldn't see shooters at the stake from the trail. First time in 4 years I hit any money dots and I hit 2 this year. I was one of two shooters to hit the beaver and I hit the bouncing ball think

Post by: let.it.fly on July 27, 2010, 07:35:52 AM: yeah i was realy stoked to get that pack. i got a little confused on the course though. i have never shoot there before so it was hard for me. didnt bring my compass. :'(

Post by: bonneylakebowman on July 27, 2010, 07:58:08 AM: I had a blast last weekend up there. No thing to maybe bring up also is a shot gun start were people sign up for a target and walk out to it before the shoot starts then someone blow a horn so they can start shooting. We got suck behind groups all day saturday and that would help disperse the groups some. Other then that I had an awesome time hit 2 money dots and won some door prizes. Great shoot CRB
