Wales World Field Championships Test Event

[Big Bird]

As far as I know you have to apply for entry and will be told if you have a space. The numbers are limited and preference will be given to international teams and GB Team, this is due to the venue size at St Fagans. I agree with you Stylish some of the top archers is the world shoot field......it is serious! lol The entry is not about 'shooting experience' my Dad shot in the Worlds the last time it was at Wales, represented his country on several occations and has been British Champion on several occations. He wants to shoot it and may not get it.

Did you get the email from PU Chelle? We are Team GB there as well, so we get to wear our GB tops.

I heard that a top Matthews shooter was actually only allowed in as long as he shot a certain field course before July.

Hmmmm, yes I got the email too. It should be good. Although i think im going to be thinking about my holiday. I will be flying on the following Monday. Woohoo!!!
I think Chelle is right about applying to shoot and i know what you mean about grandad. Hes one of the experienced i know.

I do want to shoot this. Any field clubs nearby that I could get up to scratch with my distance estimation?
Oxfordshire/Berkshire/Wiltshire/Bucks...?

You could pop over to Westcott.

Did they accept your entry then Grant?

You don't need a field club to sort distance estimation - you can do that with 60m at your club.

If you put a boss standing on the floor lying against one set up normally - you can get all four field size faces on the two. (For the lazy)

Wescott won't be much help for the slopes though!

Yeah Im sure you would be welcome to pop over at sometime Grant but Chris is right its mostly flat as the towers are taken down after the comps! But FERRET is the man to ask about field etc Or 3D-stu. It is good to shoot in the woods though as different light and stance mess you up more than you think!

Towers?!?!! Will Wescott be runnning the GNAS animal shoot again this year? I had good fun at that last time. Especially the doughnuts!!

We had one a few weeks ago! And it was fun! Whiteleaf are holding the counties this year and Grant if your seeing this it might be a better course to shoot from what I hear of it for practice.
