Hi all, just want to add my voice to the chorus of thanks following the Stanthorpe trad shoot on the weekend.

For those that haven't shot there before, it is an amazing course - a bit steep in places but the view at the top is worth every puff! The target placement was carefully thought out and resulted in some spectacular shots and a very challenging course that was appreciated by all. Our hosts were friendly and made everyone feel very welcome and appreciated for having turned up. Despite the worst predictions from the Bureau of Met, the weather stayed good for most of the weekend except for the odd shower, and a bit of rain overnight on Saturday. To top it off, the food was great and the company even better.

A big thank you to the Granite Belt guys and gals for having us over, your hard work is much appreciated and resulted in a lot of happy archers having a great weekend. Looking forward to next year!

Cheers, Tim
