many thanks to our carpet suppliers - Simmons Flooring Xtra Wollongong, B&D Carpets Galore Fairy Meadow, and Warilla Carpet Court. A great bunch of people that have been helping us out for several years now!
***new*** We have found an interesting looking postal competition, Jake Kaminski's Backyard Competition
Many of us know Jake from youtube where he posts a lot of quality content on all aspects of archery.
This is an indoor competition where archers shoot 'anywhere' and then submit their score sheets to Jake's website.
The cost is AUD$24 (USD$15), and you can only submit one score sheet per bow type. The easy part is our Saturday shoot for DIV 1&2 aligns well (but not perfectly) with this contest shoot. The good part is one lucky archer is going to win a complete set of top-of-the-line X10 arrows with all the bits (including us in Australia!!).
If you do decide to take part, you need to take a photo of your target face and submit it along with your official score sheet.

The Saturday Competition Shoot will be a Double Australian Indoor round, with an IA 20/600 round Div3, and an IA 10/300 round for New Archers. register in Archers Diary
