I really enjoy 3d shoots. I used to go to one what felt like every weekend several years ago for a number of years. For whatever reason they dont seem that popular anymore and unfortunately fadding away. Its a lot of fun, Im not sure why they are not actually getting more popular.
-Im pretty sure the Derby shoot (South Central Iowa Bowhunters) is no more. Correct me if Im wrong, but the property sold a couple of years ago.
-Im not sure if the Montezuma shoots still go on or not. Thats a really cool course, I have not been there in years now.
-Ive never heard of the Sigourney shoot.
-Pella usually has one or two shoots a year, not as many as they use to.
The Iowabowhunters association has a 3d calendar, but it just doesnt seem that much is on the calendar that much anymore.

-MidIowa Archers has 4 shoots every year and has really good turnout. They are by Lake Aquahbi south if Indianola.

-Racoon Ridge archery north of Stuart has some 3d shoots as well and you can also go there and shoot the course anytime on your own as well, pay by honor system. He leaves his targets up all year. During the scheduled shoots he usually has a shot called the 'bluff shot' where you buy old arrows at the clubhouse with numbers on them for like a $1 and then he has a target across the river where you shot and you are up on top of the bluff. Search "Raccoon Ridge Archery" on facebook.
-Mahaska county Ikes use to have some shoots as well and I liked that course, but I havent seen anything about them having anything in a few years now either.
