Maine Traditional Championship-      

September 17th

We will look at scheduling a winter shoot in February, depending on snow depths and temperatures

This is our grand event for the year. It is a two day shoot that includes 5- 20 target courses spread through the woods. It features a two day competitive shoot, called the Warrior's Course, that requires the archers to shoot from assorted positions at targets that can be hazardous to their arrows. It also has the Turbo Hog, a fast moving target that awards the last archer standing in their category a gift card. And the Red Dot shoot that requires archers to qualify, and ends with one archer taking home a gift card. 

There is a Lobster dinner Saturday night for an additional cost. 

Primitive camping is available on site. There are also nearby campgrounds and hotels in Freeport and Brunswick, a short distance away, for long distance travelers that might want more amenities.

Recently we switched from a winter time outdoor shoot, to one indoors at Lakeside Archery in Yarmouth. This not only helps avoid losing arrows in the snow, it is much more comfortable. We rotate through a 20 station course that is a mix of 3d and paper targets. 

This is our spring shoot that allows everyone the chance to shake off the winter doldrums. It is a 30 target course that your entrance fee allows you to shoot as many times as time allows . 

This is our last event of the year. It features a 30 target course. Each entrant is given two score cards. You can shoot the course twice and submit your highest score. The cost is $12, $10 member, $5 for youth, Cubs & Pee Wees free.

 There are gift cards awarded for first through third place in the following categories:

Men's Recurve

Men's Longbow

Men's Primitive  (All wood bows and arrows)

Women's Recurve

Women's Longbow

Women's Primitive

Youth (12-16)

Cub (7-11)

Scoring is 11, 10, 8, 5 and 0. 11s will be used as a tie breaker. In the event there is still a tie, the first 5 targets will be shot to determine the winner.

Shooter must be able to touch the appropriate ribbon at each target while shooting.

Altering course target lanes or targets is strictly forbidden.
