The LSBA held a state broadhead shoot starting in 1975, the 1st one was held at College Station hosted by the Brazos Bowmen. Over the years, they were held at different locations and hosted by various clubs or in some cases, if land was furnished, LSBA volunteers put the shoot together. I believe the one you spoke of north of Austin was on the Beard Ranch and I was one of the folks that had a hand in setting it up.Those were the days before 3 D targets. we used the paper animal targets mounted on styrofoam blocks.
The shoots were fazed out by the cost and lack of available libility insurance coverage because we were using broadheads. ( Too bad, they were a lot of fun)
