Is that entry fee to enter in competition, or just entry to the area?
I won't be shooting but might find the time to come and have a bit of a gander on the Saturday.

Sue, how many sleeps now?

Robert, Di, Sponsors and workers well done. Been a fair while in between "drinks" for me.
This has got better every year. The field course and other features have had a lot of work done on them and is very enjoyable.

Missed Mr Amy whilst he was watching our American visitors with their transplanted diamond.

Lots of Canadians and Mexicans. Pity the Canadians drank all the Bundy Ginger Beer.

Another Top week end :mrgreen:

I shot terribly but enjoyed every bit of it :wink:
I had the pleasure of introducing a couple of mates the the atmosphere and they were very impressed.


Thanks Di and Rob.
Rob put a mammoth effort into re-vamping the field especially and the buzz that TAA is in full flight....and some (Hey Sue whats the count?)

It was fantastic catching up with all the bunch from each and every direction.

well 92 intrepid archers enjoyed the Wisemans Ferry shoot, and what a top weekend. Once again a mammoth effort from Rob, with a few some course changes and challenging shots, all gettable, not that we did gettem all. :biggrin: Thank you Rob and to all those who helped him with the setting up. Also thanks to Diane and Nergle for keeping the hungry hoards fed. A top effort by all involved.
There were many who travelled from far and wide, it is the a great weekend for our annual catchup. To those who didn't quite make it (timbow) perhaps next year eh!
I would also like to say a big thank you to John McDonald for his outstanding support of this annual shoot and to Trad Archery in general.
So mark your calenders for March 14/15 2015 (3DAAA pending) and only 357 sleeps to go.... :biggrin:
The scores will be on here soon, as will some photo's I am sure.
Will also advise TAA numbers when I get them on the TAA thread.
Safe journey home everyone.

cheers
sue
