Saturday 5th March 2005 -
5 Doz at 30 yards (80cm face) - Amlwch Leisure Centre
We were a very small band of archers this afternoon at Amlwch.
A few of the Regulars had other arrangements - namely Steve (on holiday), Stuart (working) Karl (working) - so where were the rest of you!!!!? And I've got a cold and feel lousy - my excuse for the day!
We unloaded the trailer - the new rope is great but long and the new cover is oh so easy. Tried to work out how far 30 yds is in feet - the shooting line moved about three times during the measuring, but we got there in the end.
We welcomed a young visitor from Corus by the name of Nicholas - shooting his first competition at 30 yds.
So started shooting - I don't think anyone had a particularly brilliant day but we got sight marks for 30yds and those of you who weren't there didn't!
If only there'd been a raffle the day would have been brilliant.

PS - The Anglesey Stafford (20th March) is fully subscribed for the pm session - any Gwynedd Bowmen wishing to shoot will be allowed to do so on the 1st session only - providing there is space (1st come 1st served). We will use this competition as Gwynedd Bowmen Indoor Champs and will have prizes separate from the main field - hopefully!
