I just want to make it CRYSTAL clear this is a HUNTING GTG. If you don't shoot archery, but like to bear, pheasant, upland, predator, duck, goose, turkey, prairie dog, deer, moose, elk, pronghorn, sheep, crow, rabbit, squirrel, snipe, etc. hunt or trap, you are still very welcomed to join us at the Pavilion @ 1 PM. We look forward to seeing everyone there and are excited to meet some new members along with putting a face with some of the other members we have not met yet. If you are not signed up as a IDO Hunting member you are still invited to join us and meet other members.
The Youth are always encouraged and invited to attend.
Mark this date down on your calendars!
IDO would like to thank Corey Waller for putting the logistics of this together.

Jami, I will be the first to tell you. I'm not a Great shot, especially at a target. I can shoot, but when it comes down to drawing on a deer and making the shot, especially on a big buck, I'm probably better then most.
We will see you there Ritt!
Stacie & I will both be there!

I am trying to get a handle on how many guys will be there and need assistance with bow tuning? I will have my paper tuning rack and tools there. The only thing I will not have is a bow press, but I will be able to do pretty much everything else. Sooo how many guys are anticipating in needing some tuning.
Lip I was wondering how much money you were going to bring I think at a buck per target $28.00 should be enough

Do you have an idea on what type of archery fun event is going to take place - Field, 3D or a Broadhead Shoot?
I had someone ask today that may tag along.

Hey folks...if you haven't decided to go then let me make an offer for you. Right now you can purchase the Command Post Hunting Blind on the website for an amazing price of $119.99 (with promo code BOW29), but if you decide to attend the archery shoot and or get together, COVERT will offer you the Command Post at the same price as we had back in May ($99.99 - I will be bringing a limited amount of blinds with me to the event but will take orders if I run out - while supplies last). This price is good for all members who attend. All guests that attend can also take advantage of this great offer by simply signing up and becoming a member of the IDO family! Hope to see you all there!

I would like to reiterate that this is open to anybody so please feel free to bring your family and friends even though they are not directly involved with the site. The only thing we would request is to reply here or send Rob or myself a PM letting us know how many guests you are bringing so we can get an accurate head count.
Thanks and the get together will be here before we know it!

I hope to make the shoot with my kids Kristi 17 and my son Matt 16. We would do the archery shoot as well.
Sounds like a great time
Steve
It is a great chance to rub shoulders with the big dogs 
I will respond with a final confirmation..

One thing that I would like to point out to everyone in regard to the archery shoot is that THIS IS NOT A COMPETITION! . It's about getting together and meeting other iDohunting members and friends while sharing our passion for archery equipment and hunting with a bow. So wipe the dust off your bow and meet us out there. We will also have some very experienced individuals in attendance that can assist in helping you properly tune your bow!

The camaraderie of the day and all the folks should make this a great event.

This is going to be a great time folks!
So without a doubt if your contemplating on making the trip or not – you really need to go!, I have seen some very cool events like this take place in the past and they are “really cool” it becomes more of a meet and great club event - everyone here that scans this site, be it a regular or the folks that just hang back and read. You really need to make the drive because if you don’t and then the regrets come in after the fact when everyone here is yaking about how great and awesome this get together was - you will be saying dang next year I have to.
Because it really changes what you have here, this is a great web site and you get to know the names but when you’re spending a day or even 2 with the group it changes from a web site to a close bonded bunch of friends that all have the same things in common and that’s hunting and the outdoors.
So like I said if you’re debating – make the trip
See you there

Just moved a couple pins for the Elk Hunt next week... after the GTG 20...35...50 yards. That's about as far as I am "comfortable" in ideal conditions.... so the 70 yarder will have to be Ritter, Waller and Gutone... I suppose I could hold 16 inches high I can't wait either

Well just got back home. What a great day. Nice and sunny. Not too hot. Great to meet everyone. Got to meet the guys from Covert Kurt and Mike and see their blinds. Great guys and great blinds Gotta call the little brother and tell him about them then place an order for the big blind Command Post XL. Nice to meet Sorgey who turned out to be from my area. So I'll have to PM him sometime to shoot at Wolf Track. Got to meet the Famous Big G. Found out Little G isn't his son. And lots of other great people too.

We had a great time folks!
You couldn’t ask for a nicer day, and the camaraderie was awesome, we had a blast flinging some arrows, visiting and meeting new friends. I hope that this becomes a scheduled event for years to come, there was some great info passed on about what we all have here, and that’s one of the best websites available for the sportsmanlike you and I 
Thanks!

Had a great time at the event as well. Tony P...you the man! Not only did he travel 4 hours to the event, but he put on a clinic on the range. Next time I'll get you though...I'll make sure my peep isn't loose! And I hope for your wifes sake that you didn't get any poison ivy! 
As for the rest of the event it was awesome meeting new members and seeing good friends again. (Tina and Stacie, I'll make sure Jackie comes to the Big Buck party! )
Kurt would like to thank IDO and the members for the support of Covert and we're looking forward to many more years with sponsoring IDO! 
Brad, Rob & Corey...great job guys! Looking forward to next years GTG! It was a great time...well up until we almost had a Turkey vs Deer throw down between Rob and Joel!

Special thanks to everyone. It's funny how everyone pulls together to get an event like this organized and pulled-off.
Gut brought my food, Corey cooked it....seriously, all I had to do was eat it. Mike (Dartman) brought some seriously good eats as well, so thank you to everyone for sharing. Brad and Rob did most of the behind the scenes work, so thank you guys for all you do.
The range was great; I had a good time with our group of Craig D, Stacie, Lori, and Pat (Gut). Already looking forward to next year as well.
