2011 Caboolture Traditional Corrival 20-21 August 2011

[Grunter Hunter 63]

Hopefully I score better than last year Johnney Recurve.......lol......

Nah serious mate....not sure......maybe Tripalot may be able to help.....

[little arrows]

well my guess it will be - with a pencil or pen on the scorecard.......

[johney recurve]

I hope it is one arrow at each target and then hand in your score card like all other events. Last year you could do it all again and if your score was better you could hand that score card in and that's BS!

[Bent Stick]

Personally if you get the chance of another round and enjoy the shoot experience is a great idea if you want to do it. As for scoring etc you'd only be cheating yourself but then again if scoring is that important don't shoot in my group I am my own benchmark and a good shot / angle and a low score is much more satisfying than a great score and a poor shot for that situation thesame as a clean miss is better than a gutshot lucky the rubber doesn't take off and lead me on a merry chase to clean up eh. Let's not get bent out of shape before we even shoot and just enjoy the event for what it is. A trad shoot not olympic selection.

Let's all just get excited about shooting the event with all our favorite characters and set a great example for the cubs, juniors and all our peers alike.

Less than a week to go yeehah

[johney recurve]

One arrow one score

'then hand in your score card like all other events.'

Trad shoots are not like 'all other events' Host clubs endeavour to put on a weekend of fun shooting and renewing friendships.

All competitors have equal opportunities at a second round so I cannot understand what your gripe is about.

Are you a 'trinket hunter' seeking recognition?

[johney recurve]

If health is poor, doing it all again is not on equal ground to a healthy person,and that is that.

[Shane]

I'll be there.

[den]

There will be 30 x 3D targets to shoot each day. You will receive one score card only for each day, to be handed in at the end of shooting the 30 targets.

Registrations will be taken on the Friday night and Saturday morning prior to shooting commencing.

We hope to see you all there with the intention of having a great time!

The guys have been working hard this week preparing the grounds for you to enjoy!

See you there.....

[johney recurve]

That is Great to hear I better clean the dust of my Bow & arrows. I can not remember the last time i shot it.

[terryzac]

hey guys do i need to bring any fire wood with me or is there plenty around

terry

[den]

Yep, Bring all your old trophies.
Thirds burn better than seconds
I dont know how firsts burn, the last one I got was in 1983.
I had a memory once that it was a whole lot of fun
just driving up!

[johney recurve]

Huntingdale shoot is on this weekend at the GRANGE.

[Bent Stick]

Johnny I am a little confused; you've just had a fair Tanty on here and now you want to to shoot another range on the same weekend?

Just dust the bow off mate, you need to get out, have a shoot and straighten out.

[johney recurve]

Well I can not shoot both, but which one do you pick they are both great shoot's, Pity there on the same weekend.As for the dust took care of that last night.

[Bent Stick]

The Corrival for me, North Albert, Gladstone, Caboolture and hopefully the future Gympie/Imbil shoots are the significant Trad shoots i try not to miss, it's more than just a few targets it's the Trad crowd and all fun shoots.

[Grunter Hunter 63]

Hey Bent Stick.............hope ya up for a fun group then...... me and Ell, you and Shan......what do ya reackon.....

Think you have wasted your calling too.......

VOTE 1 - BENT STICK FOR PM.

[Bent Stick]

Kev it's a group all laughs, hangovers and hopefully not too poor scores

[Grunter Hunter 63]

[Gene-o]

Geneo

[Bent Stick]

Gene-O mate from myself and Shan we'll miss you, Kristy and the tacka's will try and sort ourselves out and get up to Gladdy one weekend and have a shoot.

Give Kristy a big hug from us too will ya

[bigbob]

Barring fratricide [ look it up] I will be there. Finally got my own bow made and keen to try it out. Looking forward to meeting familiar faces and getting to know others.

[Gringa Bows]

Would have been good to catch up with you guys,but going bush the week after and cant afford both

[den]

Terry, we have plenty of firewood around... so no need to BYO!

We moved our shoot up one weekend on the calendar so that it wouldn't clash with the Huntingdale shoot, as it did last year as well. Unfortunately the Grange also changed their date, so we clash again!

[Bent Stick]

Good luck Rod get amongst em mate

[Gringa Bows]

Thanks mate,hoping too.

[Benny Nganabbarru]

What sort of tradbows can be shot at these big traditional shoots? All of them? Or are some styles of tradbow (i.e. the modern deflex-reflex bows) not allowed? Or would they be placed in the recurve division? I've heard various reports about bow rules for trad shoots, so hope somebody can set me straight.

[Outbackdad]

Is there a contact number there somewhere where we can nominate and an address for those who haven't shot there before?

the club grounds are on phelps rd upper caboolture ,7kms along caboolture river rd from the lights at morayfield shopping centre

[perry]

If your coming from up North best bet is too take the Buchanan Rd exit off the Hwy, follow it close too 3 K's until you come to the High School. There is a right hand bend, go under the Rail Bridge and then you'll see the Morayfield Shopping Centre. Follow the Road around the Southern end of it until you get to the Lights at the intersection of Morayfield Rd and Caboolture River Rd. Go straight ahead onto Caboolture River Rd. Follow your nose for approx 10 K and you'll see a small Tip on the Right. Just past this turn left into Phelps Rd.

For those coming from the South. Take the Morayfield Rd exit off off the Hwy. Follow your nose until you see Bunnings on your left. Turn left into Walker Rd and follow your nose 4K's or so along until you reach the Intersection of Walker Rd and Caboolture River Rd. You will drive past a Primary School and then a Kindy as you near the intersection. About 8 K's up turn left into Phelps Rd

NOTE RE CARBON CUP - As many of you may be aware I'm not a member of Caboolture anymore and last year in the Spirit of being inclusive and welcoming to those Archers that shoot Traditional style bows who do not own a set of Timber Arrows for whatever reason I donated a seperate Trophy called the CARBON CUP. This Trophy is completely seperate to the Corrival. It is not an officiall division of the Corrival or any other Trad Shoot

So any folks who do not own or shoot a set of wood arrows please feel welcome to come along to the Corrival and if you wish compete for the CARBON CUP and most importantly enjoy the weekend.

To be honest until I was reminded the other day I had not let the commitee of Caboolture Bowmen know it would be run again this year. I apologise to all who had wondered !!!
