On the evening of April 21st, the Stowe Archers clubhouse slowly started to buzz with activity. League shooters began to trickle in for a little practice before the first round of 450 League Finals kicked off at 7:00pm. Some archers were just happy to be included in the Shoot-Ups while others, such as myself, were there to win. Don’t get me wrong, I wanted to have a laid-back and fun time but I also wanted to leave having won it …

Over the past couple of years, I’ve been telling myself that I need to get out and shoot my bow more often. From the outside, looking in, I’m sure that seems a little silly. You are the President of an Archery Club yet yo don’t shoot – What’s the deal with that? Unfortunately, when you’re involved in a club as an officer of some sort – you tend to do more working than shooting. This year, I was determined to …
Ever since I discovered the Online Archery Challenges Facebook Group, I’ve been making an effort to get out and shoot more. I don’t have grand visions of being the best archer out there (or the best archer in the group, for that matter) but the collaborative effort of the group to improve our skills has me practicing as often as I can.

On one such occasion, I had a friend pick me up some 30-06 Outdoors Mini Vegas Faces. I had been seeing them pop up around the range and they looked like a great …
Over the weekend, Wapiti Archers of Pennsylvania hosted their monthly 3D Shoot. If you aren’t familiar with the club, Wapiti shoots Outdoor 3D year-round. They are one of the few clubs in the area that not only do it but, do it successfully. On Sunday, we arrived at the club in twenty-degree weather and the parking lot had more than a few cars in it. I was there with my brother, my niece, and my nephew. For me, it had …
As Spring approaches, the Southeast PA Indoor 3D Series is winding down. At Stowe Archers, we are hosting our final leg of the tournament this weekend. I wish I could say that I’ve been keeping busy, shooting at each of the four clubs involved, but that isn’t the case. Last night I shot my 2nd of 8 total events. I won’t qualify for The Showdown but that didn’t deter me from shooting. Actually, the fact that I would be able …
