Re: Ballarat Bowhunters Traditional Shoot, January 10th & 11
I'm home early. Unfortunately, my dodgy shoulder was giving me too much grief and I had to pull the pin at lunchtime, day one. I hung around and did the scoring for my group for the novelty events before deciding that as I couldn't shoot, I might as well go home.
The weather was surprising good to us. Apart from a bit of rain on Friday night, there was barely any at all on Saturday. I think I was the only fool wearing a rain coat out on the course. Everyone else must have known somehow.
Numbers were down, as you probably would expect, with the weather forecast of heavy rain throughout the weekend.
The Ballarat boys did a good job. Woody was a magnificent cook.
I didn't take many photos and the few that I did take are just snaps, but they might be interesting for some of us to see.

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

good judgement comes from experience and experience comes from poor judgement
Nothing is easy. That's why it's called hunting, and not killing

Thanks for sharing those photos with us Craig. I always love to see lots of photos after any event.
The sharing of trad shoot photos used to be a widespread practice in past years. Unfortunately, this is happening less and less now. Luckily, we still have a few who make the effort.
