Another awesome day shooting target, field and clout! Forgot my quiver and all that usually comes with it (tab, arrow puller, pens, tassel, knife, pouch…) but luckily Michelle and Mark came to the rescue! My flatmate Nikki was Lady P and both Craig and Gav got to show off their new ’3D Appreciation Society’ T-Shirts [...]

Yay!!! Red Tassel for clout archery ahoy!
Posted: 07/03/2012 in Archery, Barebow, Clout Archery, GNAS ShootsIt seems I’ve leapt over another colour award and gone straight to red!

This weekend saw my club’s third Sarum Clout – an open GNAS comp held on our new grounds. I was really torn between attending the clout or going to Osprey’s fun shoot. This year I decided to support my Club and represent SWAC. It was very cold, I was hungover, plus I forgot my quiver [...]
