On Sunday 29th January 2023 several Ely Archers members made the journey to Bottisham to take part in the annual Peacock Archers WA 18 competition.
Paul (R), Mel (R), Pete (BB), Luc (R) and Chris (BB) attended the shoot. In the end Ely Archers came away with 2 medals:
2nd Mens Recurve – Paul (540)
3rd Mens Barebow – Pete (471)
I understand Paul and Luc also did rather well in the raffle!

Pete’s Target Face
Paul, Jordan, Daniel, Mel, Pete, Alison and Harry attended the annual Peacock Archery WRS WA 18m shoot on Sunday 30th January 2022.
The WA 18m round is shot on a 40cm target face at 18m with the maximum score being 600. These rounds are also shot with each archer having their own target face. For single full face targets, there are 4 target faces per target boss, which means you may be on the top or the bottom target for the shoot. Although you do have the option to shoot on a triple sport target as well.
A lot of very good archers attended the World Record Status shoot so this made the medal wins even sweeter and the medal winners shot very well on the day.
2nd Men’s Barebow – Pete 515
3rd Men’s Recurve – Paul 551
3rd Ladies Barebow – Alison 446
Well done to everybody.
