What a great shoot. I got to spend some time with some folks I have not seen in some time. The course and food were hard to beat. Thumbs up to Mike and his crew. Looking forward to the next one.

Great job by all who put on the shoot. The course workers were top notch and the food wasn't bad either.
Well worth the 4 hr. drive.

Hey Guys! I just wanted to pass on a thank you to all on behalf of Cos Cob Archers. The First Annual Hunters Shoot and Swap Meet was a huge success thanks to you all. We had 100+ archers attend, from CT, NY, NJ, MA and VT.

We got rave reviews on the courses and target set up. The swap meet was busy and we had a couple vendors attend. Master bow builder Frank San Marco and master trapper and quiver builder Ed Gorch. These guys do some fine work. From the posts it sounds like everybody had a great time and left with full stomachs and almost full quivers! That iron bear took it's toll! The organization was very happy with the turnout and we have the green light for another Trad Only Shoot possibly in September. Stay tuned!

One note to all, we dropped the ball on taking photos in the field. If anyone has any shots on the course can you please PM with. We'd like to get them up on the clubs Website and Facebook page.

Thanks again you guys! Looking forward to seeing you all again in September!

PeteA & MCgroundstalker
