Traditional Rendevous April 15 / 16 2017

#1 Post by little arrows » Wed Mar 22, 2017 5:24 pm

I haven't received a flyer for the Rendevous being held at North Albert Field Archers over the Easter weekend, although I do know they are working on one. I'm guessing format will be similar to previous years, Field Course, Moving Target, speed round and Hunt Round to name a few novelties. Will need to check flyer, if Bow Bird is there you will need Flu Flu's with points.

there are 24 sleeps to go.

cheers

Trad shoot preparations are running to plan, range layouts completed as well as the setting up of novelty events.

You may have seen it on the news; the Yatala Pie Shop has reopened for business.

there are 3 camps set up enjoying a pleasant evening. The mozzies are a little on the friendly side, so don't forget the bug spray.

Only 2 sleeps to go :)

that's another great shoot over for 2017. The weather for the weekend was beaut, (I don't think a dozen drops really counts as rain) and the 70 odd archers had 2 x 15 3D target field courses, Hunt Round, Speed Round, rolling disks and running pig to shoot at on Saturday and then the field courses on Sunday with the bow bird. I believe the meals were pretty good too. It was great to catch up with many folk who are only able to make this particular shoot.
Thanks and well done to all the North Albert Field Archers from helping set out the targets to keeping everyone fed and watered.
Looking forward to next year.
Here are a few photo's.
