Field Shoot 9/04/2022

Hello Everyone,

 

It was a beautiful day for out monthly Field shoot. We had 9 awesome people from out club join us for a day of walking and shooting. For the first round Dave, Jac and Paul Started at target 1. While Barrett, Max and Chris stared at target 13, then 20 Minutes later followed by Gerry, Belinda and Jason on Target 13. while doing our respective half’s it was mostly showing people in our groups who have never shot a FITA Field course before. but fun was had by all.

 

After doing our respective half’s we stopped for a quick bit and rest. Barrett, Max and Paul had to leave us due to other commitments, so only 2 groups went around. Gerry, Belinda and Jason Started at Target 1, While Dave, Jac and Chris started at Target 13. Due to a Equipment malfunction(Dangerously Frayed D-Loop) Chris retired after shooting one arrow, but still walked the with Dave and Jac.

 

Lots of Photos were taken on the day as you can see bellow.
