Impromptu Trad shoot Fun weekend

#1 Post by little arrows » Sun Sep 20, 2015 10:38 pm

It was a shame the Warwick shoot was cancelled, so a few of us gathered over the weekend and had a fun trad shoot at Chevallan Archery Park near Gympie. We had 25 target field course and novelty events. Some of the groups filled in score cards as they were going, however there were no trophies, instead, key-ring gifts were handed out to various participants. One chap soldiered on despite his equipments best efforts and the dunking he received as he tried to retrieve his arrow from the river. Here are a few photos for you.
It has been mentioned that the quality of the pictures some of us are putting up isn't very good - well at least we are putting pictures up. :razz:

Another great weekend of trad archery.

Excellent venue, good food, friendly people, challenging ranges and a fair degree of deception with target placement.

Thanks to the hard workers who made the weekend a success.
