I'd like to thank everyone that braved the rainy weekend weather forecast. I understand how forecasts like that affect travel plans, BUT, the only time it rained was a pretty good shower Friday afternoon for about twenty minutes. Other than that the weather was great, not too hot, but with weather in Alabama, humid. As usual the weather forecasters were WRONG!!
Had some outstanding shooters and heard many times it was probably the best course EVER!!
I'll be posting the winners a little later.
Terry Harris
As usual, it was a great shoot. This was the eighth year that I attended and really had fun. I agree that the course was one of the best ever.
Yeah, the big rain caught me out in the course. I guess there is no drought in McCalla, AL. That 20 minute shower dumped a lot of water, then poof, it was gone.
Terry, thanks again for another great shoot.
Thank you Mr Terry and your crew for a great shoot!
I met some new folks and shot with some old friends.

It was great to make it to this shoot again after missing it for several years. Great job, Terry!
Here is the second installment of the 2017 Howard Hill Classic.
This is a light hearted moment among our group based on a back story.
Daniel B89 on here has his theory about how scoring should be done during Trad shoot and it does not include 12's :readit: :saywhat: :biglaugh:
So to him they may as well not exist, lol
So with that being said here the:
Fairy tale of archery scoring 12's

Gregg,
It was great meeting you and Buddy (I believe that's right), wish we could of shot together.
Although I would have brought your scores down, lol.
Likewise! Come shoot with us in Florida.
I want to! Will see, what you got coming up?
Was great meeting and shooting with you Greg!
Let me know what shoots you have in Florida and I'll try to make it Oh wait, I wasn't invited lmao
Don't feel bad Corey as the Supreme Leader and Captain of the F. R. O. G Team there a certain notoriety that comes with the position.
This tends to have complete strangers as in Greggs case introducing themselves and extending offers of friendships, and generally anything in between.
Tends to be a problem at time though with complete strangers wanting to hug me.
It's Time! 2017 Howard Hill Classic Part I is posted now and Part II will be loading to You Tube after some final edits.
Let me know what you think and for you iMovie makers let me know how to improve these strictly iPhone movies, thanks.

Are you kidding me, I think it is great!!! Can't wait until part II comes out.
Thank you so much.
Terry Harris
Terry,
I had sent you an email trying to get division winners and any other pic's you may have had of you and the crew.
I found names you had mentioned and used them in the credits.
Feel free to used it for promoting the events in the future.
Again had a blast as usual!
Part II
