Is the Elm Hall Shoot going to be as scheduled?
Restrictions or any other political nonsense?
This is from Pappy a while ago...
"Who is going to make the Stick bow shoot in ElmHall MI. It is August 6/7/8 . Great time, great folks great food and target range you won't soon forget. :) It is a can't miss for me. I have been going for about 18 years and Good Lord willing won't miss it. We will be heading up Sunday evening the week before, very relaxing and fun week. If you get there be sure and drop by camp, won't be hard to find. :)
Pappy"
seems quite a few PA guys are going.
No, its on. That fruit cake Gov got her emergency powers revoked. Huge win for Mich taxpayers. She kept them off their boats and out of their own private property.
Elm Hall is on and so is Mich Longbow Shoot as well. Think this year is the 36th in Hastings. Oldest modern shoot in nation.
Whats PA got to do with TG? Lotsa IBO and hunters at EH and Hastings but who cares were they come from as long as they pullin string
Heading to Elm Hall and also planning on being at MLA's GLLI too.
Elm Hall has a 8 target handicap range this year so you old duffers that use a walker or any other aid to walk bring your bow and shoot. If anyone needs it to shoot I'll loan you my electric scooter

Anthony and myself will get there on Wednesday and it looks like several more from Twin oaks are headed north also......Kurt you and Steve get the trails stomped down good enough that we can wear shorts instead of brush chaps :)

Grant I'm hoping you don't mean that, but we'll try anyway. Be good to see you and Anthony, don't get to see you guy's all that often.

The last time I shot with him He was doing some of the Teaching, pretty good shooter for an Old feller.
Who ya calling old. Skillet not old. He keeps shooting them 30lb bows he nevrr get old.

Had fun shooting the 'high and dry' course at the shoot today with friends. Had a fabulous time shooting the 'handicap' course with Ron LaClair and Greg Nicolaou this afternoon. Attendance looks a little lower this year but hopefully things will fill up as the day wears on. Great courses and location. Have garage sale commitments for tomorrow, otherwise would have wanted to stay for another day. JP Enterprise had some great deals on Rhinehart targets and I brought home a Woodland Elk.

Love it! Keep up the good work boys!
Just got back from Elm Hall and had a great time! Thanks to Rocky and all the Pine River Gang for all their hard work and fantastic hospitality!! The courses were a lot of fun and the food was awesome!![attachment=1]
Nice picture Jim, it was good to see you and David,Claude and Big John, and Thanks again for the Burgers. Man I had a great time this week relaxing, camping and shooting with you guy's from Cloverdale and the Guy's from Twin Oaks, and my special friends from Michigan. I had a wonderful time and it will be hard to wait a year to get back so we can All do it again. With some luck we will get together a couple of times before that.

Big Stripper, Good deal. How wuz weather for ya guys?
The hedge was home puttin up stands clearing two trac and makin apple cider. Early Elk opens this week in WY. Always lots of work to get done in August before the big push Sept-Jan. Still have apples to pick and stands and lanes to clear and move. Yep no time in Aug for relaxin.
Hedge~!
Hedge we all had a great time in Michigan, You missed out. The weather was great, but I am wondering which one of them guy's from Cloverdale poked all those arrows into the Ten Ring and made it look like they shot em in there. Didn't think them Boy's was that good of a shot, but I know they can cook Burgers. We sure did have a good time for sure and am already looking for ward to next year.
Kurt
I was hoping to catch up with Wooddamon and Altitude but either they didn't make it there or we just missed each other, great shooting and seen a lot of good friends. Oh and the food wasn't to bad either.
Kurt
Kurt, And you thought our good looks was all we had going for us .........
Nope, did not miss a thing unless the Brat Party was gud but I heard you need a Good Guy Pass to get it now?. Had hunt work to do in that cool spell we had during the week. Got a pile of deer need to culled out and doing it with a selfbow is a job!
Maybe you come down and hunt with us in fall when I'm back from out West.?!
Big Hedge~
We'll have to see about that Hedge. Jim I was just having a little fun, looks like you guys can shoot as good as you cook burgers and hotdogs, (would really like to see it to believe it thou). Wish it wasn't so long in between when we get to see you guys. Steve and i had a real good time,thanks for being part of it.

Well just got back last night and it was a Grand time to say the least Big A and myself went on to the GLLI and shot for another week but I must say Elm Hall was about the best ever and I think this was 20 or so years of going to this shoot
The Pine river club members did a bang up job can't wait for next year!
gm.
Yes Grant , Steve and I had a great time with ALL the Guys we were camped with, a wonderful week. The Food, shooting and company was just the best. Thanks to everybody at Pin River Rec Club for All they did to make such a fine shoot.
