I believe this was my first traditional shoot.
The article below was published in the Chronicle, Monday June 14, 1993.

That's going back a few years now Daryl. Looks like it was one of the years we used Boora Jenson's 3D targets. We haven't seen Rob Scully for quite some years.

Jeff,
From memory I was speaking to Rob Scully at the Medieval Fayre around 2011. He was running a blacksmithing demonstration and was assisted by Peter French.
Rob mentioned that he was conducting a blacksmithing course at a TAFE centre in the Ipswich /Bremer River area.
I think this photograph was taken at that shoot.

Thanks for that. It would be good to catch up with those who attended the Musters back then. I think you are right regarding that photo as it has one of Boora's targets in it. It's hard to remember I once had a beard that colour.

Great photos, thanks for sharing. How cool is a whole mob of longbows like that? Marvelous.
