Re: Granite Belt Bowmen club at Stanthorpe QLD.
I can remember an ABA shoot from many years ago.
Bob Doring had a camp fire go out of control but luckily it was extinguished before the camping area was ablaze.
Plastic tent pegs were useless and a rotary hammer drill fitted with a 1/2" masonery bit was required to drill holes in the granite to take the steel tent pegs.

kerry and crew have done a great job and the course's are unique that's for sure. just need a couple of bull tahr targets on top of the house sized boulders and i'll feel like i'm in NZ
The degree of satisfaction gained from the accomplishment of a goal is directly proportional to the hardships and challenges overcome in order to achieve it.

Re: Granite Belt Bowmen club at Stanthorpe QLD.
Had a great time shooting at Granite Belt Bowmen today.
The ranges are fantastic, and the views are out standing.
It a very young club with a fair bit of work to do, to get the club house up and running.
There is talk of a Trad shoot here one day, and I know they will do a good job of it.
