Harry has now obtained Junior Master Bowman.
Harry scored 5 Junior Master Bowman scores at record status events this Summer:
Archery GB have presented Harry with his shiny Junior Master Bowman badge.
Very well done Harry!!
A very breezy 140 yard and 100 yard clout was shot today. Windy enough for a few of us to have problems keeping the arrow on the arrow rest.
I do feel that anybody with a long rod does have an unfair advantage, plus having a line of trees at the back of the shooting field always helps to give us something to aim at.
Karl arrived late but finished off strongly by actually hitting the clout flag.
Final scores today were:
Harry shot at the Junior National Outdoor Championships (JNOC) at Lillieshall on the weekend of the 2nd and 3rd July 2016.
Saturday Harry shot a Metric III and scored 1113 and came 9th.
Sunday Harry shot a Bristol III and scored 1150 (PB) and came 6th.
Here he is on the shooting line and with Patrick Huston (Team GB Archer).
A few of us tried the WA 70m and WA 50m yesterday. Maggie set a new WA 50m club record with her barebow and shot 175. Mary shot 130 a PB. Daniel shot the WA 70m and scored 390 also a personal best for him.
We spent a very breezy Sunday afternoon shooting a Half Metric.
Scott obtained the Ely Half Metric I record with a score of 515 – this also gives him his 1st class badge.
Simon obtained the Ely Half Metric II record with a score of 481.
Katelyn shot the Half Metric V and obtained an Ely record score of 540 which is a 1st class score.
Next Sunday (3rd July)
This is our final metric round for a while and we are shooting:
