2026 Rendezvous at the River

The 2026 Rendezvous at the River is a muzzleloader shoot hosted by Idaho Traditional Bowhunters in Boise—a chance to test your flintlock, percussion, or inline rifle against live targets and dial in your black powder load before hunting season. You'll shoot in a format built around historical marksmanship, working with the real constraints of loose powder and patched round balls.

This is hands-on practice in a working environment. You'll get trigger time, see how your load performs at distance, and swap notes with other shooters who actually use these rifles in the field. It's practical prep dressed up as tradition.
