May Shoot

Well hi again, its been a while!

Can't believe we're almost halfway through the year already, before we know it we'll be talking about the Christmas party again.

Its really nice to see so many new faces out at archery over the last few months. I hope that you're all enjoying your time with our club and having fun on our shoots.

Last Sunday we had about 18 shooters, a lot of them being newcomers! Young Oska is proving to be rather a natural at archery, getting a very respectable 107. Clinton is still leading the pack with his score this week being 172. Evan came in 2nd with 150 with Justin close behind on 146. Jackie is showing me up (not that hard) with her compound, shooting 132 - very nice!

Ken's young Nate (Peanut) would have to have scored the shot of the day, getting a 10 on the standing bear. Luckily a photo was taken before the arrow fell out! Ken himself got a great shot into a tree and didn't even wreck his arrow!

El Prez was shooting again after having a bit of time off due to an arm injury but after losing 3 arrows, I'm wondering if he wishes he'd waited another month. At least his weren't the only arrows lost. We might have to get someone to come along next time and borrow Evan's metal detector and run it around - who knows what will turn up??

I mentioned the Casino State of Origin weekend shoot in June in an email recently but it didn't generate much interest, which is a little bit of a shame. I'm sure that if anyone wanted to attend they'd be welcomed anyway. If you're thinking of attending, just get in touch with the Casino club.

I've only got a couple of photos to share this time, but please if you ever take any on a shoot day and want them included let me know.

Cheers, see you next month.
