| Well, that was fun... or maybe not... I think everyone will agree that the conditions were frustrating, to say the least. A fair bit of wind, often swirling, which was highlighted by the fact that fluffy white seeds were floating across the field most of the day.
I shot abysmally at 90m on both days but had a strong follow up with all other distances and finished second, just 8 points behind Neil Bridgewater, with a 2484 total score. Matt Webb was third (about 15 points behind me) and James Keogh fourth (a couple points behind Matt).
Gents compound had a bit of a mix-up with the results, when the organisers forgot to add in the final dozen to the scores. In the end Liam Grimwood won, Gary Cole second and Steve Gooden taking third. Don't remember fourth. Adam was shooting well and in third place for quite a while on the second day but had a bad end or two and dropped a few places.
Both compound and recurve were tight the whole way through, with only about 20 points separating the top ~8 places in each.
Ladies compound was Nicola Simpson 1st, (can't remember the name of second) and Linda Garner in 3rd. And I wasn't paying a lot of attention to who placed in the ladies recurve... |
