Participants and vendors heading to this weekend’s Bridger 3D Shoot will want to pack a favorite raincoat and a couple of camp chairs. Due to rain in the forecast, event organizers have shifted a few plans to keep everyone dry, protect the property from vehicle damage, and ensure a more comfortable experience.
Registration, check-in, and vendor setup have been moved completely indoors.
Here is everything attendees need to know to navigate the weekend smoothly:
The New Game Plan
While the actual shooting course is sticking to its traditional location, the initial stop for the weekend has shifted just half a mile south of the original spot.
- The New Address: 1800 Jackson Creek Rd, Bozeman, MT 59715
- Directions: Drivers should still take Exit 319 and turn left, following Jackson Creek Road for approximately 1.75 miles. The indoor location will be highly visible from the road.
Registration Perks
Doors open at 8:00 AM sharp both days (May 30th and 31st) for registration and check-in.
- Swag Bags: Every participant will receive a swag bag loaded with goodies donated by event sponsors.
- Early Bird Bonus: Anyone who registers online prior to Saturday will receive 5 free raffle tickets.
On the Course & After-Hours
Because the course will layout a little differently this year, archers are asked to check in with shoot staff before heading out. Rain gear is highly recommended.
After completing the course, participants are invited to dry out and unwind inside the shop. Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs to hang out and enjoy food trucks, vendors, beer, music, and merchandise. A full list of vendors and raffle items can be found on the official website.
