TEXAS STATE LONGBOW CHAMPIONSHIP
Just got this year's snail mail (as every year for the past dozen).
Sherwood Range...near Fort Worth
24 year-old event. Big fun, wonderful people.
LABOR DAY WEEKEND May 27/28
WOOD ARROWS ONLY..you'll see some beauties.
LONGBOWS ONLY ...TSL rules: no pistol grip, no string touching limbs, measurements of thickness near riser. A team evaluates and certifies every bow... one of mine barely made it (extreme RD).
Convenient motels.. don't know about camping this year...
A river runs through it.
25 targets, interesting layouts
Buckes, dealers, trades.

Oops...Thanks for catching that. The way the flier's laid out it puts "25 Targets" immediately under "SHORT COURSE" ...

Memorial Day. Another snafu. Sorry.
You think that's bad? Try the skeeters, cotton mouths, and tornados that sometimes feature. Poor New Mexico, so far from heaven, so close to Texas :-)

I have a question. Neither the wife's nor my longbows will meet the specifications.
Can we shoot for fun and not compete with our bows???

I'd call David or email his as I don't know the answer to that question. I don't think you can as I haven't seen a fun round option but I am not certain. David is a really nice guy and will let you know for sure.

I may sleep in my SUV...the two times I've shot there I wouldn't want to have tent-camped and I do hate motels. One of those two times I was glad to have 4WD :-)

Hi LD !!
Participation buckles for old geezers! They felt sorry for me for making me walk through all 100 targets, climbing the cliff to pull arrows out of the goat and just so I would stop crying.
Hope you are doing well my friend!

It was great to get back to this shoot. It's my favorite course I've ever shot and love that it has a great mix of all kinds of different targets and shot setups. There was a lot more small targets this year it seemed like compared to the last couple times I made it to the shoot, but they help keep things interesting and on your toes for sure!
If you've never made it to this shoot before, its definitely one to mark your calendar's for next year on Memorial Day weekend to attend. You'll be glad you did!
