Title: Pics from Hawkeye Bowmen's 17th annual Traditional Shoot
Post by: Buffalogobbler on August 24, 2009, 09:35:51 pm
Well, it's all over,
three and a half day's of Traditional Archery Fun in the sun...
there was a 10 minute down pour though...
 but that was just to freshen up the mud on the trails ;D

What a great time it was to see old friends again and meet new friends!
I hope everyone returned home safely and with a smile on thier face. :)
or should I say,
A smile STILL on your face!
I'm sure you'll agree...
It's so much easier to deal with Monday, after the GREAT weekend we had! ;)

 Two day's later I'm still kickin' the mud off of my boots and anticipating next year...
Old friends and new...
 and that SWEET sound...
When the arrow hit's the target!

I wish I had more for you,
 because there was so much going on...

But here's a few pics.

It's the middle of the day, where is everybody?
Out on the courses shooting!

Pappy,
We'd love to have you some time!
Perhaps in April for the Spring Thaw.

Ryan,
the camera is always ON!
People ask me all the time, "is that thing off?"
If you ask me, and I tell you it's off...I'm lying! >:D

It was nice to see both you and Gary again!
I'm gonna try to make it to your shoot with the Hawkeye gang next spring.

Kevin
