I'm thinking about taking the day off and heading down to the Baltimore Bowman Trad Classic next Friday, May 18th. My usual shooting buddies can't make it. Any other TradGangers going to be there?
Looks like a Friday only trip for me also. Safe travel.

Love this shoot wish we could make it again
I'm going miss it this year.... :banghead:....it is won of the best I have ever attended.
My son and I, along with our usual group, will be there Thursday thru Sunday. My favorite shoot of the year! :jumper:
Planning on Friday and Saturday.
Evan, I might just be able to get there Friday for an AM shoot! Let me know what time your getting there...
Thad
Hi Thad, Long time no speak! I have to drop my boys off at daycare at 7:30 so the earliest I'll get there is around 9:30-10:00. I'll PM you my contact info.
Have a great weekend,
Evan
I'll be there Wednesday evening through Sunday.
Hey Ed, I was just in your neck of the woods last weekend. Let me know if you want to meet up to fling a few arrows on Friday.
That was a great shoot 26 years ago-still have their pin on my hat. We have really good shoots out here in the West, but that one was good
Anyone have a physical address for the shoot to plug into my nav system? Can't find it on the web site.
10301 Harford Road, Glen Arm, MD.
Thanks! That was quick.
I'll be there from Thursday till Sunday , looking forward to seeing old friends and making new friends.

Lord Willing I'll be there meeting up with some friends on Friday and Saturday. Just praying the rain will stop for the event . :pray: :archer2:
Looks a little damp. And if the forecast holds true, it might be downright wet...yuck...
Hopefully I can make it on Sunday at least.
My weather app says 2.3" of rain on Friday. Bring your snorkels!
RAIN,RAIN GO AWAY AND COME BACK ON MONDAY! :pray: :dunno:
It's going to be a wet one. At least I'll be able to blame my bad shooting on the weather!
Rain it did and lots of it "BUT " I only shot 1 coarse on Friday but it wasn't Heart attack hill but slippery enough for me.Had a blast with the guys I was shooting with.
My friend RJ I rode with did get his money's worth of shooting and I was very happy he did while I laid back and visited with folks and went back and forth to the vendor's tents.
Did manage to get another black Thunderhorn boa quiver from Jd's and saved over $47.00 by buying it there. It has the rattlesnake center and beautiful. Bought a dozen 1916 legacy's and needed supply's. Couple roles of string material and a nice leather eye glass case from a leathersmith.
Good food and fellowship with my Trad. family for sure.
Best thing was our group didn't have to be under the influence other then the Holy spirit to have a great time.
There was some folks who's mouth could use a bar of soap especially with the children near by and should of had to blow through one them blow meters before attempting to shoot and I could of breathed much better if the guy's smoking cigars would of stayed out the vendor's booth . My asthma was giving me a fit every time one particular fella was anywhere near me with the brown pickle in his mouth.
Other then that I thank our Lord for watching over us and keeping us safe traveling back and forth and for Baltimore bowman for the grounds we shot on.
Was there Wed-Sun...WET..but fun.!
Went Sunday and shot with my 6 year old son, with the wife spectating. Hit the kids course and I think the Fred Bear Course with them, then the St. Charles course by myself. Somehow managed to not lose or break any arrows. My son was shooting better than me at the beginning, and he got his first string slap bruise yesterday, too!
Mudpuppies!

Yup pretty sure everyone took some of that mud home with them
Ill have to figure out how to post videos, hopefully this link works, in this one he is pulling arrows from his quiver like howard hill.

Also picked up an old Kwikee Kwiver for my 1968 or 1969 Ben Pearson KM Special. It looks cool and I figure itll be good for stumping or shooting events. Maybe if I get the cover, Ill try it with broadheads.
Some good deals were to be found for sure! I picked up a case Barlow look-alike with sweet scales for $20 and got 5 x 130 grain Pearson deadheads for $25, :bigsmyl:
I need to get my boy out there next year. Good stuff!
