Hi there - I am looking at bringing my daughter along for her first traditional shoot (birthday celebration for her - she is super excited) Is the Hinterland one coming up a good introduction to trad shoots??? I am also wanting to find her a left handed 16lb recurve bow - where is a good place to look for these and get advice on what length/weight of wooden arrows to get for her???
Any info or advice would be greatly appreciated!!!
Cheers!!!

How does the camping thing work? Just turn up and pick a spot - this will also be our first time camping so it could be hilarious!!!

yep just turn up and pick a spot. It would pay to let them know if you are going to be there before Friday.
see you there
cheers

As for the bow contact John McDonald, we got a 15-20 lb for our godson and not too expensive

Just wanted to say thank you - for everyone's help - it all worked out - 1st Bow in time for the Hinterland shoot.
A huge thank you as well to John MacDonald for being so wonderful in organising pretty much everything for her!!!
She seems a pretty keen shooter!!! Not deterred even after the rather moist weather and arrow carnage of hinterland

That's great to hear! It was tough going on the Saturday so if she comes back after that she is keen. John helped set up our godson and was very helpful supplying the whole kit!
