Is this the first of many shoots to BAN COMPOUNDS    |
Morning all.
It's basically as Fran said: The hall measures 37m end-to-end, ergo to get 25m in the bosses will be about 1m from the end wall. behind the bosses there will be a backstop net, but thin arrows go through those.
Pass-throughs should not be an issue in any case: we have one archer shooting a 60lb compound and with indoor [S]scaffold poles[/S] arrows there isn't a problem. Wot, no strikethrough? bah! [S] is supposed to make strikethrough letters with a line through them...
and lastly, we have no intention of banning compounds. The wording was wrong, we admit that, the person responsible has been asked not to do it again
If any of you do want to come and play, I need entries by email by wednesday, please. GNAS only, number in entry or failing that bring your card on the day. No GNAS number, no shoot. Sorry, I don't make that rule.
Currently, there is no morning session - if I get another 8 entries I will have to run the morning session (albeit with not many in it) and then there will be about 8 places left in the afternoon. Currently, the few who requested morning are in the afternoon list, and space for up to 7 more.
