The 2018 IBO schedule is out and Wv has three big events. The 1st leg of the Triple Crown and the Trad Worlds will be at Pipestem State park. The world championship will be at Snowshoe. Its a good time to get involved being its so close in distance from home

I attended the WV Triple Crown, the first leg of the National Triple Crown at Pipestem and the Traditional World shoot in TN, this year--thoroughly enjoyed myself. Didn't shoot very well, but had a great time. :^)
Like Mike, I'd encourage everyone to get involved. You don't have to be a top-shot shooter to enjoy shooting 3D and meeting new folks.
....and congratulations to MP. He won the WV IBO Triple Crown in the RU class and placed 8th in the IBO World Championship.

Congrats Mike! Me and My two sons shot the entire IBO National Triple Crown and even the IBO World Championships last weekend. I just missed winning the IBO Worlds and ended up 3rd... Maybe next year! There is one more IBO Tournament left in West Virginia this season. The WV IBO State Championship will be held at Lumberport Archery Club (near Shinnston, WV) on Saturday, September 9th and Sunday, September 10th.

Gobbler, you need to get on there so you can send pictures to all your friends of what you are having for lunch every day. Seems a lot of that goes on. I never have been on there myself. I have a young friend who had to get a security clearance for his job with a contractor with the Air Force. They told him it would take about 6 months--he got it in two. The FBI guy told him it was because he never had a Facebook account. If he had, they would have had to go back through all of his contacts on there.

Mike, that was our secret!!
Dave, you are right. Social media used the wrong way can lead to problems later in life. You have to watch what you put on it or what pictures you post!! But it can be useful to keep in contact with old and new friends. I got on it the summer I had my broken ankle and reconnected with lots of old friends from high school and college that I never would have without it. Plus if you follow certain sites the information available is great.

No Facebook for me. Enough BS everywhere else.

That was exactly how I felt before using it. You just have to filter thru the BS like with everything else. It was cool to connect with old friends. I found out I had a half-sister. Went all the way thru high school with her and never found out till last year. But my father was a drunk and left before I was one so it wasn't a huge surprise
