Over 130 archers turned out to shoot. The ranges were challenging with some deceptive distances bringing many archers unstuck. The placement of some of the targets was inspired with a bobcat in a tree, a turkey hiding in the hollow of a stump and the grizzly taking a leak inside a port-a-loo.
The ranges were a pleasure to shoot with easy to navigate tracks. Great food and exceptional company kept everyone happy during the evening, although the nights were a little cool.
The weekend ended with Singleton putting together a well-stocked raffle table. The Manning team were very lucky winning several prizes. Our luck continued during presentations with six shooters achieving top three positions in their respective shoot categories.
Their results were:
- Karl Peck AMBHR A Grade 1st Place
- Glen Allen AMBHR A Grade 3rd Place
- Rick Starke AMBHR B Grade 2nd Place
- Chris Kendall Trad Peg Men's Longbow Traditional 3rd Place
- James Dowson AMBHC A Grade 6th Place
- David Parker AMBHC B Grade 1st Place
- Raylene Starke AFBHL C Grade 3rd Place
