Just occured to me that I will be in the area on friday with time to kill...had a look at the entry form...No compounders. Humph. Anyone know why?

[King Custard]

Hi Sky,
yes...it's a proper shoot..for real bows...not bionic/automatic bows..

No seriously...it's because they dont have the required space for an overshoot.....it's quite a 'short' covered reservoir with allotments within fairly easy reach for any arrow aimed too high.
Are you not shooting recurve still?- Last I heard they still had spaces .

I was booked in but I wont be there. I dont have an outdorr setup at the moment as have still to tune my new X10's, fletch then and make a new string. Hope the weather will be good.

Sorry to hear you won't be there Schme, I've never minded being slaughterred by a Decent archer!
Still, W.Essex are fielding a strong team- with a couple of other names on the target list worthy of note too.....I'll have to work hard for the gold...or plain get lucky...108 times in succession!

Gissa look then? I cant make it on the day, but I'd love to see who's going. (half of my club for a start!)

Good luck. Theres no point in going if I dont have an outdoor setup. Didnt do the conties last weekend either due to alcohol abuse. I heard Mat Webb Won. Do you know if the full results are avaliable?

Recurve is on loan to a friend at the minute - i'm totally dark side now.

Hmm...I don't have my RoS handy but you need 150yrds for anything with a mechanical release, or 50yrds further than the longest distance. Albion is 80yrds, 50yrd on that is 140yrds...Hmm...

[King Custard]

wha...? and no Ffish!!! hardly worth shooting properly then is it...which is going to be tough anyway- I've ocome down with 'mammoth flu'...the flu that would kill a whole species of elephants, and that one man alone should never have to suffer!
Ah well - I'll use it as a tuning session or just swap between arrow sets to see what happens

Hey Ffish
let me have your email by PM - and I'll copy you the target list.
