There were archers from Toowoomba, the Sunshine Coast, Pittsworth and the northern suburbs of Brisbane at Yatala for the October 24/25 weekend of the NAFA Trad Tourney. Saturday was a 2 arrow round on our 1st 15 x 3D course, and 1 arrow round on the 2nd 15 target x 3D course. The novelties were Hunt...

woops - your are 100% correct Daryl - it should be floints. I don't think NAFA would appreciate huge holes being shot into the aerial disks. I shall correct my previous post in case others don't read this far down.

cheers

Thanks Daryl, and don't forget your FLOINTS everyone (that would be flu flus with POINTS) not as I previous had typed.... (this post was corrected 02/10/20)

Could people please RSVP as per the flyer, so they can keep track of numbers if needed.

A couple more Cancellations due to Covid-19

TAA Nationals 10/11 October @ Tenterfield and TAA NSW State Titles 17/18 Oct @ Coffs Harbour

2020 - not a great year for any archery I'm afraid.

I'll have to edit it - it's huge and many many photos on Travellin' Round the Trads on FB so will post something shortly.

Kendaric,
Only ABA members get the mag, or I guess you can buy it, could you regale some of the points that interested you, for the sake of discussion perhaps.

The Qld Government Restrictions for Stage 3 were lifted on July 3, and as the border is now open to NSW archers, I wish to advise we have the allowed capacity of 100 people for the TAA Qld State Titles Trad shoot. I also have a list of Reserved Persons, who have been advised of their position, so sh...

I've sent you a pm Guy.

G'day Guy,
A friend of mine has a 55# Black Widow for sale - I will get some info for you.

The Covid -19 Restriction limit of 100 people was reached and any further nominations are being placed on a Reserved List, and these people will be advised if places become available. If people arrive on site and they have not nominated, then they will be asked to leave, as I am sure none of us want...

flyer and nomination information updated.

due to the current Qld Covid-19 restrictions the May shoot has now been cancelled.

I hope a few of you will join in once again with the Isotrad for this, the first weekend of May.

Following the announcement from the PM dated 16/04/2020 noting that the current restrictions will remain in place for at least another 4 weeks, Tamara and Gary have decided to let the 16 / 17 May shoot float. It will probably not be held on the date as noted, however if some travel restrictions with...

thank you so much Steve I will certainly be using your little tales along with photos. So stay tuned for full story.

Hi David, Yes .300 spine is stiff and trying the .400 could be a much better starting place An elevated rest can interfere with fletches however not quite as much as you're describing. I just had a look and 3Rivers do have test kits of 4 different spines, in alloy and carbon however not in timber, a...

G'day David, When you say fishtailing, you mean side to side I'm guessing - what spine are you currently trying, now you're looking at .400 (65#), which I suppose isn't too overspine depending on the bow type. Have you tried playing with the brace height, and also if the nocks are too tight on the s...

Hi,
I am sure I don't need to emphasise the safety factor of shooting in your own yard, do I!
Looking forward to seeing some of the weekend results.

I didn't want to be accused of bias, so yesterday were some cockroaches, today we have cane toads. Lets all have a bit of fun and please put some photos and a few words, and let me know if I can't use them. There's no prizes, just a way we can all keep in touch. 10 for the centre and 5 for the rest....

copied from the Traditional Archery Aust Facebook page as posted by me: Here are some more targets for us to have fun with on our Easter Shoot coming up next weekend. These are free clipart utilized for the occasion. Will work on a 20 meter target tomorrow for those who may be fortunate enough to ha...
