Title: Long day at Kawartha Traditional Achery
Post by: Ontario Longbow on March 11, 2012, 07:45:00 PM
We put together a bit of a fun shoot at Kawartha Traditional Archery. Weather was a bit cold but met some great guys Paul, Richard and Dan. Turned out to be a long , long day. This picture was typical of the days events, For the most part Paul, Richard and Dan shot very well. The cold seemed to affect most as everyone seemed to make "personal" observations of peoples, well, let's say "short comings",,LOL. The shoot would have gone much quicker but much time was wasted looking for arrows that didn't hit the mark. Surprizing in that most shots were around the 10 to 11 yard mark and wide, wide open.

I know your strategy, shoot at the solid foam because the vitals are worn out   ;)    :p

Looks like a great day was had!
