Thanks for sharing those photos Gnome. 8)

There's a few familiar faces there. All those smiling faces gives the best indication of just how much they were enjoying themselves. :D The weather looks as though it was very kind to you.

Mick
There is no use focusing on aiming if you don't execute the shot well enough to hit what your are aiming at.

Yes Mick the weather was kind 8) and I do apologise for the multiple photos :oops: get a little carried away sometimes :)

For the record Jeffro has won the long shot for the second year in a row :shock: will have to make it longer I think. He also came a very close second in the Recurve devision with his score of 255 to Howard OcConnell's of 265 for the weekend total. So well done to you Jeffro. The highest score for the weekend was Scuzz in the Longbow devision with a total of 285 from what some considered a demanding course so congrats to you to. I will be posting a compresed version of the place getters in a while. in the mean time hear are the remaining photos that I have.

here are a few more pics of the gathering, including kids' balloon shoot, pinjata, general milling around (pub always open).
Thanks to all those who put the effort in for a second gathering this year.
We appreciate your commitment, time and hard work, and greatly enjoyed the socials & shooting.
Excellent venue, and the dust squalls were not too frequent, and there was NO RAIN....prayers & good fortune all help.
The Round Table of Wisdom is a special Hunter feature.
cheers & thanks .

Yeah mate he is .He has a great time every time we come up there.
I think his enthusiasm for archery is growing stronger now after the weekend.
He has improved a bit so its more fun for him now.
Well done on the top score too mate.
