Wide Bay Tradtastic Feb 7/8 2015
I was advised late this afternoon, by a little birdie from Wide Bay Archers in Qld, the club will be holding their inaugural Tradtastic on the weekend on February 7th and 8th 2015. I believe they have two courses and there was mention of a skateboarding pig ??? mmmm
So mark your calendars, the Trad year kicks off earlier, and with only 176 sleeps to go....
cheers

Great news, another Trad event. Hopefully we can get enough shoots in a year to save us having to go to work.

Re: Wide Bay Tradtastic Feb 7/8 2015
I've had a call from Richie (he is an ozbow member, he's just shy, - well he is on ozbow, he definitely isn't in real life )
anyhoo I digress - he has requested if it would be at all possible if you have the slightest inkling you may be going to this Trad shoot, could you please let me know.
cheers

Re: Wide Bay Tradtastic Feb 7/8 2015
Wow the place sure has changed since a small group of us started the club way back in 1985 or there abouts.
It still disappoints me to see the club name wasn't kept and has changed from Bowhunters to Archers just like many of the other old clubs.

Re: Wide Bay Tradtastic Feb 7/8 2015
Jeff, probably because the majority of members are archers and not bowhunters????

Re: Wide Bay Tradtastic Feb 7/8 2015
That maybe the case with your club membership now days. However name changes of many Bowhunting clubs happened years ago for other, let's just say politically correct reasons IMO.redeagle wrote:Jeff, probably because the majority of members are archers and not bowhunters????

Re: Wide Bay Tradtastic Feb 7/8 2015
Look like a first class venue Redeagle. The shoot coincides with the time of year when we have a lot of roads cut due to flooding in NQ. My issue will be getting the time before and after to travel, will see how it goes a bit closer to the date.
Cheers.... Rod
Ps. We are lucky most of the Townsville crew are avid hunters.

I remember when a lot of clubs started doing this, and it was exactly for that reason.Stickbow Hunter wrote: let's just say politically correct reasons IMO. Jeff
'Field Archers' might have been a little better, to separate from target archery clubs, and maintain the spirit of that style of shooting in the club name.
Re: Wide Bay Tradtastic Feb 7/8 2015
Hey suz, you can slap my name down for the Wide Bay Trad please. Kenny Rachow, camping and full catering please, shall pay extra for a early coffee in bed in the mornings.

Re: Wide Bay Tradtastic Feb 7/8 2015
I heard today that you are expecting over 400 Trad Archers to come to your shoot. Good luck.
I know that TAA has nearly 300 members. Hope All goes well. To many for me. Cheers Roadie.

goodness me, I think not - a slight over-exaggeration, or some very wishful thinking, on someone's part...... Richie !?!?

Re: Wide Bay Tradtastic Feb 7/8 2015
OMG Roadie where did that come from???? At this moment we have 45/50 interested, and are expecting roughly 120, give or take 10. By the way, we've catered for 400 at national shoots and 700 at world champs, so someone has mixed it up with that maybe. Hope to see you there, Richie.
Re: Wide Bay Tradtastic Feb 7/8 2015
Ay Richie, I think that is what happened, someone up your way made inquiries about our shoot etc ,and somewhere in the translation the figure of 400 was mentioned, and the person at this end thought you was getting 400 at your shoot. That was how it was passed onto me.
Good Luck with the shoot, can't make it, have to rest and take it easy, still have a hole the size of my wrist in my back/shoulder where they removed the Cancer. Slinging arrows is on hold for a while. Cheers Roadie.
