Wicken Stafford

[Des]

Anyone going to the Wicken Stafford this weekend?

I'm doing the Saturday session...

[Ffish]

Yup, both Ffish Jnr and I will be there too (Saturday also). Looking forward to it - never shot 30m indoors before.

Not seen a target list yet for Wicken, but look out for the father & son in matching GOA shirts!

Looks we'll be seeing a lot of one another this summer too Des, just checking your blog, I'll also be at:

14/15 June (Sat/Sun) - Rivernook FITA 70m & H2H
12/13 July (Sat/Sun) - Clophill FITA Fest 70m & H2H
19 July (Sat) - Beds Dbl FITA Star (Doing Sat only)
2/3 August (Sat/Sun) - Oxford WRS 70m & H2H (Sat)

See you Saturday.

A set of results have been posted on archery organiser; click HERE

I wanted to thank all the archers who proved that chivalry is not dead yet with their generous donations for the tea, coffee and "high energy fuel" : (the sticky pastries all went!) it looks as though you have collectively donated around 50 pounds to the "Friends of Hazeley School".

Thank you from the School and Wicken Archers

An excellent shoot, and one that I'd definitely recommend for next year's calendar.

Note to self - shoot on the full sized targets in future, not the half sized! Two misses scored as zeros on the half sized face, which would have been 5's on a full face (10 points down the toliet!)

But next year you will only need the gold and then you will have to worry about the arrow damage. I found the half size faces OK to shoot on, I shot on the full size on Saturday then moved to the smaller one on Sunday.

Next year we will offer both options again shooting with four archers to a large face or individual archers on half size faces.

Thanks for the comment on the shoot, look forward to seeing you next year.
