On June 21 and 22, 2008 Wankinquoah Rod and Gun Club will be holding an IBO World Qualifier on its 350 + acres. The two day event will have 120 targets you will need to shoot 40 targets to qualify. The rest you can shoot for fun! If you want to shoot all 120 targets you first must shoot your qualifying round which means you will be starting on Saturday 21. IBO rules will be enforced on the IBO course. Bow draw weight and Arrow weightswill be check in accordance with the IBO rules.

If you did not attend last year we all had a great time! We had some pros shoot the course and they gave us thumbs up for a great course and for the overall running of the event. Some of there comments where that the shoot was better than any IBO WQ they had been too including the triple crowns. There will be vendors, specialty shoots for money (hint be sure to have a 80 to 100 yard pin) and raffles, as last year.

Different from last year isthe awards ceremonyis onSundays Dinner where the winners will be announced. Dinner will be from 5 PM ending promptly at 8 PM so we all can get home at a reasonable hour. The bar will be open before and after dinner for those who wish to partake. The bar will be closed during the event and no alcohol drinks will be allowed while the shoot is going on!

A Pop-Up tournament is something along the lines of the Buckmasters. We will have 7 targets that will pop up for a short amount of time, usually about 7-10 seconds. A lot of fun!
