Februay 24-26th
Our very own Tony Kinton will be at this event. Please go and stop by and tell him hello. I have pasted below some of the information and a website that you can visit that will give you a list of vendors and even more information that has been updated since this was originally posted.
From Terry Harris:
WOW, WHAT A WAY TO START 2012.
As many of you already know, the 2012 Pre-Spring Arrow Fling will be February 24th, 25th & 26th, 2012.
You may also have read that Compton Traditional Bowhunters have teamed up with the Allsouth Archery Association to hold this 3rd event at Tannehill Historical State Park in McCalla, Alabama.
Tannehill State Park is one of the most camp friendly parks you'll find. RV hook-up through-out the park and almost unlimited primitive camping. Bathrooms and bath houses for your convenience as well.
For those of us that don't camp, there's several great motels within just minutes to Tannehill.
When I say that there's going to plenty of Vendors here to kick off the new year's 3D season, I mean it.
There'll be three separate 15 targets courses, a total of 45 targets, to shoot all weekend. This will also follow the Compton Rendezvous format of a non-competitive, shoot for fun weekend.
If you want to shoot just one day, you can shoot as many rounds as possible for only $20.00. For $35.00 a single participant can shoot all weekend and $55.00 a family up to four can also shoot all weekend (over four, $5.00 per person). Now, Allsouth Archery Assoc. & Compton members get a $5.00 discount for the weekend rates.
I will adding more information, such as Vendors who say they're coming, along the way.

I got to go and had a great time. I came over from Mississippi and my son came down from Gadsden, Alabama and met me. It was the first shoot I've been to in many years. I missed meeting Pappy, Tony, and some of the other guys, but I did get to meet Eric Krewson and his lovely wife. He was kind enough to give me one of his tillering gizmos, too. I'm sure it will come in handy as I plan to make several bows this year including the trade bow I am working on now. Thanks, Eric!
