The archery Challenge IFAA this Sat 10.30

Hi All,
What a big day we have planned for this Saturday 3rd August Starting at 10:30am we will be shooting the International IFAA round. 10 targets 3 arrows per target. This round does NOT have the dreaded 80yard target, so no excuses. We are the proud owners of one of the best IFAA ranges in Australia, so come & give it a try. Followed in the Arvo by the Eco-shoot, 2 arrow round. Free shoulder massage to the winner.

3 arrow Ant hill range 27/7/13

Mama Mia, Mama Mia, My My, what a lovely day it was. Now that just shows how hard it is to keep coming up with superlatives that describe my Saturdays at the club. Pure Bliss.
This week we shot the Anthill range, well 9 of you did, I only shot the first 7. Which by the sounds of things was a very clever idea. Kiss of Death missed a target and drove the point back up the carbon shaft. Kiss of Death 1, arrows nil. I am told several targets caused havoc. One was a new shot that very cleverly deceived all who attempted it. The other was a tiny accident with the distance. I think Fingers better stay in the bale press next week. Oh well never mind. Scores for the day:
Don't tie with me Brett 380, Coins Alastair 370, BP Glenn 360, Home Brew Garry 356, Finger Ray 350 BB, Granddad Cec 346, Cup Cake Gloria 342, Kiss of Death Stewart 290, Jonty 88, Teabag DNF.
Whilst most shooters had a pretty dismal day score wise Fingers shot a fantastic Master's grade score Bare Bow. Just so happens that fingers set the course. But still a masters Bare bow score is something to be truly proud of. Well done Ray
Cheers All

3Arrow Goanna range 13/7/13

Happy me, I got to fling arrows in the bush with like minded people who I am happy to call my friends, mild temp. blue sky's, no wind. How oh how could this ever get better. Regular readers may remember a few weeks ago a few of us had a dig at Liam, who is a junior and suggested he man up and shoot from the adult peg, well Liam took us seriously and is now shooting from the adult peg. Sometimes in life we have ideas that in hindsight are just plain stupid and this is one of them. Liam go back to the cubs peg or the junior peg actually anywhere but the senior peg. In other words STOP BEATING ME. That goes for most members of the club as well. Stop it, just stop it.

We are getting pretty desperate at the club our range captain, assistant range captain and assistant to the assistant are fairly diminutive, in fact the first 2 are probably the smallest in the club. I was highly amused to see Bruce jumping up and down in the bale press. I have no idea what he thought he was achieving, but boy it did look impressive. Now I'm not saying Bruce is a light weight but you would have to wet him with a hose to give him any chance of stomping out a cigarette butt. Never mind a nice softly packed butt is better than nothing.
Scores for the day:
Coins Alastair 388, BP Glenn 378, Cola Karen 374, Granddad Cec 366, BC Liam 362, Cup cake Gloria 358, Teabag 348, Finger Ray 320 BB, Kiss of Death Stewart 312, Grey Nomad Bruce 258 BB.
Several members are travelling to Taree next week for the Branch Titles. Some members may turn up at the club but I doubt if there will be any club gear or a BBQ and all the club coaches will be away.
I didn't write the handicap results down and can only remember a couple. Kiss of Death came 9th Cupcake 2nd and Liam is the overall first place. I think.
Take care travel safe
Cheers Teabag
