[Micky]

Is it a Portsmouth again? 'cos we go indoors tomorrow and I'd quite like to register a score for once!

Yep, Portsmouth again this month. After this month I'll (hopefully) bring in the divisions to give everyone a chance of coming top </p>

Also thinking about a Frostbite for December is anyone fancies it. Although I think our Australian members might have an advantage </p>

What's a Frostbite?
Can I join in if I promise to put icecubes down my pants? (any excuse really)

Hehe, course you can Marcus but I think certain members of the board will require photographic evidence.</p>

Basically#a Frostbite is where you pick the coldest day and go and stand in a field to shoot 3 dozen arrows at a 30m target (is it 30m or yrds? I can't remember!)</p>

Don't forget that you should also have a freezing cold shower aimed down your back, a wind machine pointing in the direction most certain to blow the arrow off the rest, and have suitably numbed your fingers before trying to assemble your bow!

It's 30 yards, I think.

'Extreme' archery. You should get -10 from your score for every layer you wear

I'm pretty certain that it's just the 30m bit of a FITA.

Its 3 dozen at 30 metres on an 80cm target face. Yes we are all mad enough to shoot it throughout the winter.

Maybe our Australian friends should shoot the frostbite in August??

A Frostbite round sounds like a great idea Dave, count me in.
