What a time we All had, David and his Crew are to be congratulated for one Fantastic event.
Kings round was a blast, men shot from the 30 yard mark, women and juniors shot from 20yard s and cubs from 10 yards, after the first 4 rounds of 20 arrows going from centre 10 to the outside 1, the next 20 arrows the entre was 1 and the outside was 10. The Shark target was 3 arrows to his head 2 arrows to his tail. Target 4 was in the dry dam with plenty off weeds and grass, in here was 12 sand bags made into nest with real Eggs on them,you scored 20 points for every egg you managed to smash with you arrow. Other targets were heart/ lung goat, candles in the wind, Tree of knowledge, Apples worth 5 points each, plus many more, including Popping Jay with 4 headless chooks. There was the Poachers round , 3D targets and the old style paper ones near each other. All this was done on the Saturday.

Sunday , we formed groups of 4/6 people, called ourselves a Tribe and gave ourselves names such as mongrells, saxons etc, my group was called the Celts, we then played Archery Poker, afte that we then went back out on to the Poachers round. We finnished about 1230, had lunch. Awarded prizes, the Celts beat the rest of the Tribes. Then
some of us packed up and headed for home bases. We had archers from Toowoomba, Kingaroy, Hunter Valley. Terry came from Blaney, heard about the shoot at Wisemans,. All in All a great shoot, AND it will be on again this time Next year, So those who missed out this year you have 12 months notice so start planning. Well done to the Crew at Silver City Archers. So next weekend is Milduras turn. Cheers Roadie
