Saturday 2nd October 2004 - Portsmouth - Amlwch Leisure Centre
18 archers attended the first club shoot of the indoor season on Saturday and I must say it was very pleasing to see so many new members attend our club competition.
The day started with the usual problem of where we usually have the shooting line and how we usually attach the net, but these problems were soon ironed out and then I had the problem of finding enough serviceable faces for the comp.
(I promise for the next one there will be new faces all round! - Sorry)
Anyway problems dealt with, speeches on rules, timing and etiquette etc. given and off we went.
Karl shooting his socks off, Gareth and myself just shooting! But hey - a good day was had by all.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who attended and especially the new members who shot some good scores, lets hope that we can take a team or two to Caldy, Neston and NWAS Champs. and put Gwynedd Bowmen on the Archery map!

P.S. On checking the score sheets some of the additions were incorrect - if you sign for your score and it's wrong the score on the score sheet is what is counted, so one or two of you missed out on a few points because whoever was marking your scores made an error in the addition (or subtraction - whichever way you do it!)
P.P.S. On checking the results against the records that I have I believe that Karl shot a Club record. Well done!!
