    Bowhunter4 heres a link for up coming shoots http://www.archeryguy.com/calendar.html There is one in mid aug in cowichan. There is cost involed around 15 dollars regardless if you shoot for fun or not, this is for insurance and also for fund raising for the clubs hosting the shoots.
    Bowhunter4 pick a shoot that you will probaly like to go too. Then send a post out that you will be going and would like to hook up with someone from the site. I'm sure you will be welcome in any group. Unfortunately I have not been out to any shoot this spring and don't know if I will be able this fall. I hope this helps.

    The next shoot (hunting style) is at the Cowichan Bowmen Club on August 13th. It is a cost of $15 for the day. I will be there, my brother and his son will be there, as will a bunch of other guys. You are welcome to come and shoot with us - we are not up in the "elite" shooters, but we try. It is fun regardless of how you do. Lots of free advice and coaching there as well. PM or email me and I will send you a map of where the club is.

    Here is the club website http://www.cowichanbowmen.com

    Re: target shoot in mid-island

    -two types of shoots: 3D & Target
    -3D - shoot at 3 dimensional animals in 'natural settings'
    -Target - shoot at target faces at set distances
    -which are you interested in?
    -there is a listing for both types on the Cowichan Bowmen site mentioned above.
    -The shoot in August at Cowichan Bowmen is a 3D shoot that is going to be a Benefit for Baby Ella's liver transplant --she is an adorable 10 month old that is known to some of the club members.... hope to see lots of you there

    Bowhunter4life .. Take BowWalker up on his offer. You won't find a nicer bunch of guys to shoot with especially if you are just learning. You won't be sorry and it will give you the true perspective of what a great time a 3D shoot can be. Mike

    Willy, Willy, Willy.........what the heck has gotten into you? Practising ?!? And here all us fellers, in the Great Unwashed category thought that you were a "natural"

    I will be bringing my "A" game - I still got my sights set on your butt.

    As for Ella - there will be a donation for her as well. I say donation as well because that's what I do..........donate to the various clubs' coffers when I go to shoots.

    One of these days I'm going to surprise the pants off you and actually beat you at your own game!

    See you there.
