Name the Archer. Note the arrow is already going wrong and it has just left the bow.

Some great shots Grahame except for that ugly geezer in the last shot.Had a bit of a bummer on the way home , had a accident and wrote off my ute. Have to wait until 7pm and the missus gets home to go up the hospital and checked out for a possible bit of whiplash,. Guess I wont be at too many shoots now.

Good to here you're okay. New ute.

Be impressed by that photo of the arrow in flight. Might have been the cheering from the crowd that caused the deviation in flight.

It looked to be a better day down there than up here where it was wet to go with the cold. :biggrin: That arra in the second last photo looks to be going in the right direction to me Grahame.

Is there a photo missing that goes with the above Grahame?

Sorry to hear of your accident Bob and I hope all is ok with you as that is the important thing. I hope the ute was insured and things get sorted with that promptly also.

Nutgrass that's wasn't the one that was geographically embarrased, was it? :biggrin:

We had a great weekend once again. The Corrival crew really know how to put on a good shoot, and a big THANK YOU to all, as none of them are Trad shooters, but have Trad at heart. I did see a couple of them sneeking around with the old club recurves again, so we may even convert them yet..... :lol:

Mark it on the calender for next year once more.

Hey Bob, that's not good news. Hope you're ok. Thinking of you.

cheers

Morning All.

Just for interest. In the photos there is a Kassai. Here is some video I shot of a Kassai a couple of years ago. My memory of that bow was that its owner found it not the easiest bow to string/destring due to the amount of recurve it had in it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ubI-g2Gdlmg

This a Toth http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoDNYLJcvrU

It was nice to see another Asiatic in use.

Will add a few more when I get home this afternoon.

Hi Jeff - no missing photos, earlier I a double.

Hey Bob, hope things got sorted mate, that is not good at all.

There were a few photographers around the coarse over this particular weekend, any chance you guys want to share a few pics ?
Also, as some of you already knew, I forgot my camera & other bits & pieces that weekend :oops: so if anyone has pics of my kids getting their trophies & wouldn't mind sharing them that would be great 8) (or any pics of them) 8)

Thanks again.
