As far as we are aware only two archers managed to hit the bison with their first arrow - it was set at 74 metres with lots of dead ground. Many people commented that they particularly enjoyed the predator and prey shot, which looked great on our open savannah-like grassland. Many thanks to all those who contributed so generously to our landowner’s sponsored charity, CRY (Cardiac Risk in the Young), whether you bought raffle tickets, paid a found arrow "fine" or just made a donation. We made almost £200 in memory of Alex Buckler, our landowner’s son. Many thanks to all for assisting in bringing everything to the tracks for clearing at the end of the day, and to all the club members who helped to make the day a success.

14th October - Severn Valley Yeoman Foresters Report by Martin Cane ON A VERY frosty morning Severn Valley greeted 169 archers to our second shoot of the year, which consisted of 40 3Ds and paper faces. By mid morning the sun came - and stayed out for most of the day. Thanks to our course layers - Steve K, Colin, Robin and Steve P on one side, and Paul and myself on the other. The lay-out of the long leopard and shorter tiger was intentional as we wanted to see what happened, which was archers misjudging and shooting over the top of the tiger. From the comments afterwards most of you enjoyed yourself (and that’s the main thing). On the catering side, again Deb pulled out all the stops and produced another grand display of goodies, which I’m sure you’ll agree she didn’t let you down and is deserving of her reputation, so many thanks to Deb and her crew. Thanks also to our members who worked before the shoot and on the day as marshals, admin, car parking etc, making sure everything went to plan. So again thanks to you all. Well that’s about it for another year, so we at Severn Valley wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a healthy new year and thank you for taking the trouble to travel long distances for some of you and some not so far to attend our shoots - we really do appreciate it. See you all 22nd April 2013.

This unfortunately left the ground wet and slippery, but despite this everyone managed to negotiate the course - set in 50 acres of SSSI protected rolling woodland - without incident. 43 archers from 11 clubs and six independent archers booked in for the shoot. All were welcomed and most enjoyed the bacon sandwiches and breakfast rolls. 47
