Chris Densley Leave a comment

Hello Everyone.

On the 10/07 we saw the shooting of rounds 3 and 4 of our Winter Indoor League. Ten archers competed on the night, with Riley Austin shooting a personal best score on the night.

Round 1

With a small speech from our wonderful Club Captain we began round 3. Through out the whole round we had the usual sledging between Dave and Elliot and Lex.

After a quick 15 minute break

Round 2

Just as we were about to start Lex broke his release aid. Halfway through the round Lex decided to all of a sudden play with his sights. Much to the humor of Dave and Elliot.

Presentations to the winners of Archers of Warrnambool Summer Indoor League was made at the Sports Target Complex, Duram Park on Tuesday 10th March. Current Compound Shooter Of The Year, Elliot Riley, continued on his winning way by defeating club captain Dave Reid on a count back. Riley, who averaged 291 out of 300 over the season easily accounted for Reid to take out the A Grade medal with Daniel Baker a close third.

In the B Grade division, Alex Nesic shooting his Mathews Chill-X compound bow took the honours with 80 points and was undefeated across all rounds.

The C Grade division was the most hotly contested with Denise Burrell victorious over Chris Densley, followed by Brendan Hyland and Jim Burrell.

Kai Van Kempton was the best of the Juniors, cementing his place as one of Archers of Warrnambool’s top junior compound archers.

The Autumn Indoor League commences Friday 13th March at 8pm with practice from 6pm and all Archery Australia, 3D and Australian Bowhunters Association members aremost welcome. All current club members are also encouraged to compete in this very enjoyable and relaxed atmosphere.

Rounds 5 and 6 of Archers of Warrnambool summer indoor league was postponed for 1 week and held Friday 31st January. It appears the delay may have had a negative effect on our A grade shooters because many archers shot well below their average. Elliot “The Splinter” Riley did manage to equal his personal best of 294, but followed it up with a 279. This is well below par for AoW’s 2019 Compound Shooter of the year. Both Daniel Baker and club captain Dave Reid were also off their game, with “Bakes” shooting 279 and 284 and Dave “Chopper” Reid posting 251 and 268.

Fortunately the traditional archers were able to show how it’s done. Brendan Hyland and Chris Densley shot personal best scores of 118 and 84 respectively. Chris Nesic, shooting compound, also bettered his previous best with a 255. His new Tank 23 arrows from Urban Archery are definitely doing the trick. Well done Lex!

 

Final scores were;
Elliot Riley – 294* – 273
Daniel Baker – 288* – 279
Dave Reid – 271 – 251
Alex Nesic -236 – 255*
Denise Burrell – 165 – 161
Brendan Hyland – 118* – 80
Chris Densley – 84* – 76

Rounds 7 and 8 of Archers of Warrnambool summer indoor league are scheduled to be shot on Friday 14-02-2020.
It is still not too late to join the competition. All 3DAAA, ABA and AA Members are welcome.
