Wonderful Day for a Shoot
« on: August 21, 2016, 07:15:21 pm »
A fella I shoot with occasionally hosts a get together once a year on his 20-acre homestead that's out in the boonies.
Today was the day. And he couldn't have ordered more perfect weather ... low 80's, low humidity, and cloudless sky!
There were about 40 traditional shooters in attendance.
I didn't get pictures of the food table. You'll have to take my word that it was impressive. ;-)

 



... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

40 traditional archers is a good sized crowd for a private shoot. Perfect weather and good eats, that must have been a good time Mike.
I ain't broke but I'm badly bent.

Is that last picture Chris shooting?

Looks like a good day!  You could not have asked for better weather.
