Video recap of our BowBirds & Litter Pickup! The BowBirds were flying today at the TVB Spring Bear & Antelope Shoot! It was tough to convince the compounds to put down the wheels and pick up the sticks, but those brave ones who did, made some fantastic new memories. Seven participants were able to shoot a bird out of the sky, but only one could win it all. At the end of the day, Jerry Wilson (ITB Lifemember & past President) took home the $25 Archery Central Gift Certificate and donated the 2026 ITB Membership Prize to the next person who signs up as a member this year. Thank you so much Jerry and congrats again! ITB & Archery Central will be cohosting a Traditional Only Equipment BowBirds Novelty Shoot at the Treasure Valley Bowhunters Spring Bear & Antelope Shoot on Sunday March 29th. We will be setting up at 10am and launching disc into the sky until 4pm. Today is our BowBirds and HWY 52 Cleanup. We'll meet at 10am in the same parking lot as last month's Spring Fling Shoot. Certified Archery Instructor and ITB member Janet Houlihan is hosting an archery class this week at the Cascade Rec Center through Thursday! Her current students are a group of first and second grade girls, and Janet is confident that by the end of the week they’ll be hitting bullseyes like pros.

We had an AWESOME crew of volunteers show up to help, and even with all that energy, it still took us 3 hours to cover our stretch of the HWY!

The 2024 Western States Traditional Rendezvous, held in Moyie Springs, Idaho was a wonderful experience for the many hardy participants who came. There were 201 registered shooters and probably another 50 or more non-shooters. They braved the forecasts of rain storms and winds to attend! What a beautiful day for a shoot! It was cool but not cold, it was warm but not hot. A great turn out too from the trad archery community. Special thanks to everyone who helped set up on Friday as well as all of you that stuck around to clean up afterwards today. It's a lot of work and because of you, it is all possible. The 2024 Western States Traditional Rendezvous (WSTR) this year is being held in Northern Idaho at Moyie Springs! Its a beautiful location and a beautiful time of year for this shoot. The NWTAE did not disappoint. If you missed it, here is your chance to relive some of the moments captured at the event. Special thanks to @traditional_archers_of_oregon @idahotraditionalbowhunters @comptontraditional @tradquest @joelturneractual @paulforward @chris_m_jasmine and so many others that came together to make this an unforgettable event.
