A message from your President
First off I would like to thank everyone for the opportunity to be your
new MBH President. I look forward
to meeting fellow MBH members at
upcoming tournaments.
Indoor season is in full swing. We
have already been to the MBH Vegas
450, Presley's, and Iowa Pro Am. We missed the
Kansas City Shoot Out because we were all four
sick...at the same time. Right now we are getting
ready to go to Las Vegas for the World Archery
Festival. This will be our first time there, but I know
of several other MBH members that will be there to
help guide us. I have been very impressed with the
number of shooters representing Missouri and how
well they have been shooting.
The B of R meeting was held at the end of January
with several clubs represented. I feel bad for not
being able to attend, but we had ice on the roads
that morning. I do know that the election votes
were counted which resulted in me being elected
President, Ryan Fitzgerald is Vice President, and
Steve & Candy Bridger are Treasurer and Secretary.
The upcoming tournaments were discussed. We are
in need of someone to run the tournament at the
Missouri Deer Classic. Anyone willing to volunteer
please contact one of the MBH officers. Plans are
also in the works for the State shoot. We also need
volunteers for set up on the Friday before the tournament.
I would like to thank the out going officers, they
have done a great job and I hope to continue where
they left off. I encourage all of you to thank them
for their dedication to the sport of archery.
Again I am looking forward to meeting as many of
you as I can so please feel free to introduce yourself
when you see me out and about.

Archery and Media: A Possible Match?
Archery has seen lots of publicity over the
last year, there is no doubt. Between TV,
movies, and the Olympics were all very great
opportunities to grow the sport in leap and
bounds. But what is the common denominator of these things? They get the sport of
archery out to the masses. Not only that, but
they all do it through a type of media. Let us
look at the this year and really look hard at
the possibilities we can take advantage of to
grow archery.
that provides coverage of archery tournaments and other aspects of the sport.
Their live coverage of these tournaments
and events can be found on Facebook and
Twitter along with video shortly after the
action is over. They do an exceptional job
and I anticipate great growth for them in
the near future. A few fellow MBH members from the Kansas City area have
started a podcast a year or so ago called
“Bow Dudes.” These guys have a fantastic podcast over many aspects of the

We can take the sport of archery to a
whole new level when we can use media (and social media) to promote our
sport. Something we can all do is to
support the various media outlets that
cover archery! Watch, listen, and interact with the groups who make these
programs. They all appreciate feedback
and ideas on how to improve their programs. We can use this opportunity to
grow the sport and make it stronger,
make sure you support these folks!
Besides, who wouldn’t want to see
archery tournaments on TV?

CONSERVATION COMMITTEE
Statewide archery deer harvest totals
have been published by the Missouri
Department of Conservation and the
result is 2012-13 was a new record
season for archers in Missouri.
Archery hunters harvested 53,997
deer during the four month season.
That’s a 2.5% increase from last year’s
record harvest. Permit sales also increased by 4.9% to 202,421 archery
hunting permits. Missouri Bow Hunters topped 50,000 deer harvested for
the third time in the last 4 years.
Something interesting happened this
season with regard to the top archery
harvest counties. For the previous 4
seasons the top counties have all
been suburban St. Louis and Kansas
City counties. For the 2012-13 seasons
we have a new addition to the top
three counties.
Camden County placed third this season with a harvest of 1,062 deer.
Camden County is in the Lake of the
Ozarks area with cities like Camdenton and Osage Beach located within
that county.
I know for a fact that Missouri Bow
Hunter Lifetime member Jack Davis has
been working with the City of Camden
to increase the archery hunting opportunities there. This season Jack harvested 4 deer in Camden County. I
know that because Jack took the time
to send me his Large Game Reports.
Those same reports over the years
have been used to help open up archery hunting opportunities in other
parts of the state as well. We can present data to city officials from actual
archery hunting harvests that document things like average distance of
shots taken and how far the deer traveled after the shot. Opening up more
archery hunting opportunities close to
home where firearm hunting is not an
option helps control the deer population in our urban and suburban areas.
That in turn reduces vehicle-deer collisions and other property damage that
an overpopulation of deer can cause.
supporting as well as taking part in
Conservation here in Missouri. Just because everything is good now doesn’t
mean it will always be that way.
The “Good Ole Days” of Missouri’s
Archery Hunting are right now!
Lets all keep it going by doing our part
as Missouri Bow Hunter members and
promoting our club, archery hunting,
and Stay informed about Conservation
happenings in Missouri and be a part
of the process when you can.
Finally I hope to see you at this year’s
DEER CLASSIC in Columbia on March
1st & 2nd. Bring your Large Game Reports from this past season and get
any antlers from the 2012-13 season
scored so they can be entered into
MBH’s annual Big Buck Contest.
Happy Bow Hunting

NODAHO BOW HUNTERS, INC.
Are you ready for some
A-R-C-H-E-R-Y!?!? Like it or not, a
very busy archery season is upon us!
Clubs all over Missouri are having
their tournaments. Vegas is right
around the corner followed by Sectionals, State and Nationals. If
“indoor archery” isn’t your thing, you
don’t have to wait too long or travel
too far to find a 3-D or Field shoot.
Time to get off the couch, travel
some and socialize with archers from
across the state, nation and even
world – no excuse for Winter doldrums, and Spring can’t be too far behind.
Nodaho held our January 300
NFAA or 360 Vegas tournament on
January 12 & 13. We had a good
crowd in spite of losing a few of
our regulars to the Iowa Pro-Am. I
see several Missouri names who
either won or placed high in their
classes at this prestigious shoot –
way to go Missouri archers! Our
results can be found on our web
site www.nodahobowhunters.com
or on facebook.
Our next shoot, again a 300 NFAA
Round or 360 Vegas, will be held
on February 9 & 10. If you don’t
plan on going to Las Vegas we
hope you can join us – it is our
final indoor tournament of the
year since the State shoot falls on
our March weekend and many of
us will be traveling to Linn to participate.
Hope to see you soon!
