Yeah I can imagine, so long as you didn't take down all my tape I need those two camping spots beside my camp. 17 camps already, sounds like it will be a good shoot then :)

Once again a great weekend of archery and fun.

A big thank you to the committee, members and helpers for organising the event.

love that photo T-Racey it captures our group perfectly :biggrin:

All the running around and stress was worth it. Many many smiley faces, we had a couple of hiccups and will make sure at next years shoot we have more Ice Cream, Gravy and some Chili sauce.... :biggrin:

Thanks to all 100 shooters who made it a great weekend all round. We had 2 archers from WA, 3 camps from NSW, Qlders from Warwick to Gladstone. :smile:

cheers

My 2nd trad shoot and wow what a great time. Well organised and all made me feel welcome. Top course, left my share of kindling from broken shafts, but have gained much out of it. Thanks Gympie.

Gary and I would like to thank all the people at the Gympie muster for making us feel so welcome. We have truly made a lot of new friends. Thank you again to Shrek, Vince, Terry & Dave for shooting with us. Well done to all the members for organizing a fantastic event. The food was excellent especially the roast dinner on Saturday night. We will pass the word around that it is a must do shoot.

Cheers Jo & Gary
