This weekend top archers from the region decended on Bowmen of Glen for the East Midlands Archery society championship. Member Glenn was there representing his club and county shooting the challenging WA1440 90m round. In fine form once again winning bronze in the open recurve with an impressive score to boot.
Well done Glenn!

Sooo, we’ve got some catching up to do!

First up: today’s Warwick shoot, a brisk 48 arrows across 60 and 50 yds in the beautiful grounds at National Trust Kedleston Hall. The winner walks away with the DAC Trophy! We’ve shot it, but as it’s a handicap shoot there’s some sums to do before we can announce the winner. Tense times, we know, but the winner will be announced here as soon as they (and we!) know! 😬

Secondly: it’s been lovely to see all you lovely members of the public during our afternoon of have-a-gos! Many happy folks, delightfully surprised with what they can do with a bow and arrows and a few minutes of being shown what to do! It’s always a delight seeing the happy faces walking away from the shooting line after getting a few in the gold! 🏹🏹

It might have been a bit chilly in the breeze, but summer was definitely showing signs of being on the way for today’s shoot at National Trust Kedleston Hall.

Another local round - the Derby 70. 70 arrows at 70yds, shot 5 arrows at a time!

Congratulations Simon, Debbie and Neil for their wins at Longbow, Recurve Women and Recurve Men!

What a lovely day for a project-Saturday! ☀️

This week’s efforts - we’re back on the shed. Easy-clean laminate floor, tables and chairs, kitchen units, and gas stove and kettles for making tea.

On the home straight with this one now!

Another promising bunch of budding archers have braved the weather on day two of their beginners course and passed with flying colours today! 🏹

Plus, some of the hardier of our members shot a mammoth 144 arrows in the 1440 family of rounds.

Photos available, thanks to Scott. There was no way I was leaving the comfort and warm of my house in this miserable grey! Fingers crossed for a more exciting update next weekend… 🤞😂
