2010 PA Bow Hunter’s Festival

100_4525

Just got back from the Bow Fest. We had a great time!

It’s so much fun spending time with the family flinging

arrows at animal targets, running up and down the

mountain side on trails, laughing at the misses and

slaps on the back for great shots! My DIL #2 (Archery Chick)

is a really good shot. She uses a compound bow and just

has that edge to hold tight and shoot well. I shoot a Traditional

50# Recurve Bow with no sights, so if I miss … I have no one to

blame but myself! I was a little concerned about pulling back

the bow this year since an injury to my shoulder but my fears

were unfounded, she pulled real nice for me. My two sons

and husband are great shots with both compound and traditional

bows. So now we are ready for the Pennsylvania woods come Oct. 2nd.

This Church always has a Bow Festival Breakfast.  All you can eat

sausage, pancakes and good hot coffee hit the spot on a chilly 7am morning.

This is the infamous “Running Deer” target. That deer form travels back and forth 2 times

on a short track at various speeds. After the 2nd trip it stops mid-track for the archers

to retrieve their arrows. Sometimes it looks like a porcupine with so many arrows

sticking out it’s sides. It’s around a 45 yard shot and loads of fun.

It was beautiful there in the morning with the mist rising along with the Sun.

September smells of wood fires, damp leaves, outdoor cooking … it’s all good.

Psalm  19 … it’s all good …

1 Thoughts from others ...:

  1. The Bowtech Destroyer 340 is rated at 340fps and the Destroyer 350 is rated at 350fps. Some will say this is nothing new, but you would be wrong. Never before has a bow returned this much swiftness and still had and still had a smooth draw. Not only are these bow fantastically fast they are also very quiet and shock free. The add on of the FLX Roller Guard, another industriousness first, means you have a bow that tunes very easily. Stop in and see why this is one of our hottest sellers.
