This shoot is going to be a lot of fun! Can't wait! If anyone is wondering, this club puts on a top notch shoot! Been to several of them and they are always first class. Definitely worth trying to get to!

Found a correction in the details poster. Should read M50 not M55.

Good shoot, thanks to Ray, Mike, and all the other folks at GCA! Was very challenging course...especially as I just had new 50-60# limbs put on to replace the 60-70# set, to accommodate my arthritis in shoulders. I didn't have time to really sight it in properly, so a lot of my distance shooting (and there was lots) was a WAG (wild ass guess)...but I managed to come home with all my arrows and had a great time. I managed to shoot a sasquatch right in the junk, so that was fun! Great target set up, and very challenging!

Good job GCA!

Thanks twisted canuck and thanks to all those who came out and braved the cold. We had a record number of shooters at 122! Over $10000 in raffle prizes went out the door and $3000 in cash! Hope everyone had a great time and we can one up things again next year!
