The rain held off long enough for 14 archers to finish a challenging 3 arrow ABA round on the Goanna Range on Saturday 28/06/14. Scores were a little low as most found the range very challenging. One archer who will remain nameless also had difficulty deciding which pin to shoot on the difficult, long group 5 downhill target resulting in a miss. Sarah continues to improve and despite shooting an unsighted recurve with 3 experienced sighted compound shooters, she managed to take the honours on target with the only A on target 11. Vera made a comeback after a couple of months not shooting and made a respectable score.  Dan made a few changes to his setup and had it sorted out by the end of the day.
        Next week we will have 6 archers travelling to Gunnedah for the Northern Branch ABA titles but there will still be plenty of starters at Tamban so make sure you get out to the range for a shot.

         Well the weather was a bit iffy but we had 13 hardy souls turnout in drizzly weather for a 3 arrow ABA round on Saturday 21/06. We shot the Anthill Range with a few younger archers to keep the old boys in check. Al shot a 394 closely followed by Garry with a 390. Great shooting from Tim who put down his longbow to struggled with his wheeled beast for a respectable 334. All the new shooters fared well. Jayden, Steve, Calum, Sarah and Jarrah all shot well. Calum was particularly keen on the campfire crumpets with golden syrup after the shoot.
        Remember there is the next branch shoot at Gunnedah in 2 weeks so make sure you put your name on the sheet to pre nom next week at the club.
