State IFAA shoot at Wagga

About 37 shooters fronted the starter on the Saturday morning and I do mean morning. Whilst the turn up wasn't high the quality was there. F troop were surprised at how many shooters actually came, a big increase from a couple of years ago. Our branch supplied 12  ( Tuggerah 2, Namoi 3, Manning 3, Macleay 4,) and branch C ( central Queensland 2,) The ranges were very very dry and the sun came out to play Boy was it hot. 11 branch E members came home with medals, no prizes for guessing who missed out. From our club Karen, Gloria & Alastair all had a first place.
Cheers all Teabag

9 Feb results

A busy day of archery at the club on 9th February, with another International Mail Match shoot in the morning, followed by a regular ABA round in the afternoon. Liam Crawford continues to make huge improvements with his shooting having moved from bare bow to the bowhunter division. His afternoon ABA round was a personal best, with many of the shots taken from the adult pegs rather than the junior ones, which meant longer shots.

We had several first time shooters at the club with some making use of the practice butts, and Ethan Delander and Alex Robinson shooting on the range in the afternoon.

Two Macleay members travelled to the Hunter for an ABA invitational shoot on 2 February, with Cec Apps winning the veterans sighted division, and Brett Hodgman coming second in the mens bowhunter unlimited flight 1 division.

IFAA indoor 2/2/13

Hi Mike,

Well it took two  attemps to get there because Tamban Road was flooded and first time I wasn't brave enough to drive through 4" of water.

Anyway five people had another go at the IMM in even more wind than last time!

When I got there Dave was still adjusting the position of his arrow rest but managed a very creditable score given his recent lack of shooting and the weather. Garry to improved his score from the first shoot by one point.

Next week will be the first shoot of round 2. It will start at 10.30am with proity given to those who are competing in the IMM.

I hope you are unflooding.

Alastair
