My trusty longbow has done me good
With highly changeable weather this morning making things look less than impressive, three hardy longbow archers of Ferryfield archers (me, Daniel & Bill) set ourselves against the 100ydctarget once more for a New National.
We knocked lumps out of it ! It was one of those days when we were managing hits every end to keep the scores steadily building and even though the drop to 80yds was accompanied by a sudden change in wind speed and multiple directions we persevered to record Bowman scores all round.
Daniel's first, Bill's umpteenth and my third of the season
Considering that that twelve months ago my recurve form was so bad I was seriously contemplating packing archery in until a sudden bout of ill health forced me onto longbow which I have fallen in love with.
I set small personal goals this year and yet I have managed to achieve 1st Class in Barebow and now Bowman in Longbow so everything else will be a massive bonus as the year progresses.
Super happy archer
