A Weekend with the Longhunters of Western Indiana | Muzzle Blasts on the Road

We were invited out for a small camp and shoot this weekend by Eli Froedge and Jason Jacobs. It was a great weekend of black powder and fellowship.

The following is shared from camp organizer Jason Jacobs,

‘A little preview of our camp/shoot, last weekend. We had 17 camps and 22 shooters. We had shooters from five states. Great time had by all. Lots of shooting; 20 shot rifle course, 20 shot smooth bore course, 10 shot pistol course, 14 block hawk and knife course, long range rifle match, clay bird shoot, candle shoot and a clatch match. Winner on the clatch match was 53, IIRC. Long range match started at 80 yards and ended at 140 yards on a 12 inch steel plate. Two tables full of awesome food and a 29 pound ham on the spit.‘

Photos in this slideshow were taken by Muzzle Blasts reporters who attended the event.
