CHANTRY BOWMEN CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS 2008

The club championships were held on the 27th July.

It was a beautiful hot sunny day, members arrived early to set up the field and we were ready to start by about 10-30.

Our Lady Paramount was Carol Leigh a new lady member and the field captain was Barry Armitage, it was nice to see a lot of new members taking part and also an older one John Houghton who has not shot out doors for a while.

The first distance got of to a good start with a few spot prizes added at the judge’s discretion the first one was shared by three people on three different targets who all split the line by half an arrow.

The air was full of friendly conversation and light-hearted banter even our field captain was seen taking a dance lesson from our Lady P.

For a full list of results you can go to our tournaments page or there will be one posted in the cabin.

I would like to add a final thank you to all those who helped and took part.

Yours

John Ferrier

Tournament Organiser.
