Come & try weekend Oct 2012

Well that was an interesting weekend. A big thank you to the members who organized the weekend and then gave up 2 days to help the club prosper. Fingers spent most of the weekend in the bale press. I think he has a love affair going on. Several people took advantage of the weekend and gave archery a whirl. I thought a few of the newer members may have used the weekend to fine tune their style.
The promo trailer moves on to the next venue, so hopefully it will help convert a few new archers.

Several members and a few visitors went round the range on Saturday whilst on Sunday we shot an indoor round, very confusing, we shot indoor whilst being buffeted by strong winds, well Fingers & I were buffeted, we were on the end of the line, We also appeared to have lost the roof and walls, anywhere else in the world and we would have been outdoors, just shows what a good imagination can do.

Mid afternoon after everything was repaired and put away, 4 of us went around the range. By target 11, I had to call it quits I was actually ahead of Granddad, Cupcake & Fingers. Bugger when your hot your hot but in mycase I was just stuffed. All in all a very pleasant arvo. Geez Fingers was shooting well. Annoying little bugger.
Saturdays Scores were:-
Coins Alastair 390, Martin Macfly 384, Granddad Cec 368, Fingers Ray 324 BB, Yellow Peg Stewart 308, Lincon 304, Linda 266, Conrad 256, Kellie 228, Tom 228, Jamilla 184, BC Liam 182 BB, Mat 164, Leach Bait Bruce 150 BB
   
Now Linda, Jamilla, Lincon & Conrad went home to Woollongong after the shoot, great family and welcome any time. Kellie came out to have another go and all indications are she may join, which would be great.

Special mention to Bruce who went round with his home made Long Bow, the workmanship is fantastic and when he gets a few issues sorted his bows will be valued by all.
Cupcake & I have to go to Qld for the ABA AGM so wont be there next week and may or may not be back for the week after that, so till next time Take care
Cheers Teabag
