Default Pa. Spring 3D Festival (Camp Mack)

Anybody who had the chance and didn't make this one really missed out. Great weather for a change. Roughly 1100 shooters braved the steep little hills at Camp Mack this year.

So how many on here did make it and what is your opinion of the shoot? How many courses did you get to shoot? Any constructive criticism is welcome.

Boy Barry you're right.......anyone who missed this one should kick themselves in the butt. That was easily the best weather I have ever seen for a shoot. It's about time we catch a break.

The numbers I heard for the weekend were 890 for Saturday and 350 Sunday for over 1200 total![:-]

The courses flowed along nicely in spite of the huge turnout, lots of laughs could be heard all day each day.
I only got to shoot 3 courses myself but shot pretty well, the Hammer course only claimed one victim.

If you are within 100 miles of this shoot and don't attend you're missing out, it's a good one. 6 courses + a "Hammer Course" novelty shoots, Nighttime coon shoot, equipment auction, target auction, camping, vendors, raffles etc.
Lots to do and see.

You couldn't ask for a nicer shoot. The weather cooperated for the first time in over 6 years and the courses were outstanding. I was surprised at the amount of campers this year. From tents to all out luxury 30 footers. Hats off the Chicques and Big Buck for a super weekend.

Hey Matt, don't foget we had the hid's course, too. The youth are a very important part of this sport. The kid's shootoff was Sunday at 1:00 and there were prizes for everyone that participated.

You guys are killin' me. I really want to check this shoot out. Unfortunately, having a 4 week old is taking up most of my "free" time.[:@] Oh well, maybe next year.
