Jolly Archers Western Wins

Several of Team Ely attended the Jolly Archers Western competition on Sunday 19th September 2021. Louise, Paul and Mel shot recurve, whilst Jordan shot compound and Daniel shot barebow. All of them shot the standard Western round of 60 yards and 50 yards. Many of the local clubs were in attendance with all types of bows on display.

The weather was good, hardly any wind with just some rain after we first started which lasted about 15 minutes.

Overall Team Ely won 3 first places:

1st Place Ladies Recurve:              Louise (704)

1st Place Men’s Recurve:              Mel (794)

1st Place Men’s Barebow:            Daniel (594)

Windy Windsor at Knebworth

Team Ely Archers at the Green Dragon Bowmen Knebworth Windsor shoot (14th May 2017).

Harry shot the adult round and scored 815 out of a possible 972, ranking 14th in mens recurve.
Daniel scored 777 ranking 16th in mens recurve and Mel scored 739 ranking 17th in mens recurve out of 32 archers.

I think the scores could have been a lot higher if it wasn’t sooooo windy that day!
