Are there any Victorian shoots coming up early next year? I see that both Ballarat and Lillydale ran events early last year. Does anyone know what's happening next year yet?
There is no use focusing on aiming if you don't execute the shot well enough to hit what your are aiming at.

Thanks Tony. I think the event early last year might have been open to all types of bows. I remember going to this event a few years ago and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The only minor hassle was waiting for the compound shooters to finally shoot. I believe that Jupiter's orbit around the sun was happening at a faster rate than the time it took for some of the compound shooters to finally release their arrow. :lol: Cheers mate.

I haven't heard anything regarding the Ballarat shoot yet. I do know they moved it to early in the year. I have sent an email and asked, so will wait till they advertise a flyer I guess.

Have changed the Gympie Trad shoot date to now July 26-27 - (due to the Labour day long weekend in Qld moving from May to October apparently the ABA are moving one of their big shoots).
This has been confirmed by the ABA.

cheers

also the new ABA Trad Rules 2014 has been posted on http://www.wallace4woods.com/main.htm below the 2014 calender.

Ay littlearrows, you have given me a slight problem.
All going well, I planned to come to the Barambah Shoot after Wisemans and the Lithgow Medieval (Ironfest) gathering then come Home. NOW they have moved Gympie to July, that has put the Cat amongst the pigeons.
So If I bring the Bride home after Barambah, and then catch a flight back up to Qld to shoot at Caboolture June 21/22, stay around for Lakeside July 12/13 and then do Gympie July26/27, Is there anyone up there who is prepared to put up with me so I can attend the 3 shoots. Is Caboolture a Trad shoot or a Medieval Fair as such. Cheers Roadie.

Hi Shane

I was wondering that myself the other day,, so I sent off an email. I am sure the format would be pretty similar to last year with a couple of surprises thrown in.

See you somewhere, I'm sure.

G'day Sue, have you heard anything about The Gathering? It's usually on the June long weekend isn't it? I can't find anything about it here or on the HVTA website.

Hi Ranger,

The Gathering or HVTA is the Newcastle one in June, plus they have the Charity Shoot on October long weekend.
I was debating with myself (which made for a very interesting conversation in my head :lol: ) how much information to put in the first post - I shall place the name of the shoot and their location (or club) for easier reference for people who are just finding this site and the info.

Thanks for tip.... :biggrin:

The Dunolly Golden Triangle Archers trad shoot on the 2nd and 3rd of August should be on the calendar. It's usually around the same time each year.
