Elm Hall, MI Stick Bow shoot....its a goodin'!
PEARL DRUMS:
TRADITIONAL ARCHERY SHOOT
August is traditional archery time at the Pine River Recreation Club in Elm Hall, Michigan. Located on 135 acres just nine miles west of Alma, Michigan, the Pine River Recreation Club is hosting its 22nd annual Stick Bow Shoot on August 5, 6 & 7, 2011.
Over the years the Stick Bow Shoot has become THE premier summer traditional archery event in Michigan and with good reason! The Stick Bow Shoot features Pine River Recreation Club’s famous hospitality, free primitive camping, campfires, great company and a super, FREE meal for campers on Saturday night featuring roast pork, venison, sweet corn, fire baked potatoes, a fish fry and more!
There are 28 3-D targets, including life size elk and caribou, in a realistic, wooded setting, that take the traditional archer through almost 1 mile of shooting situations and there is a 14 target broadhead course for traditional archers that love to shoot broadheads! Sorry - shooting is limited to recurve and longbows only. We also have the 2nd annual Kill Switch Tournament that a lot of people are talking about and are excited to shoot again, when the lights go out!
Admission for the entire weekend is only $25.00 for singles and $45.00 for families with children under 18 years of age and children 11 & under shoot free when accompanied by an adult. All admission fees include unlimited shooting on either target range. That’s right - UNLIMITED SHOOTING!
It’s hard to describe just how much fun this event is but there are participants that have been attending for the past 20 years, which says it all! Registration is available from 12:00 noon on Friday, August 5th, 2011, through 2:30 P.M. on Sunday, August 7th, 2011.

Pappy....I just might get to see you and the Bunch once more this Year...I normally take my Vacation around the beginning of August...so...I may have to see about swinging through that Neck of the Woods...it's way out of my Way towards Upper Michigan...but it may be worth the trip....
PEARL DRUMS:
We are only 10 miles west of the "main drag" heading north. I promise the 3d course alone will be well worth the trouble of coming across. Its the best I have shot.
