The first round took the form of a Big Game score of three arrows with 23 3D targets set from 20 pegs. No wasp pegs were used and the maximum score was set at 20. The course was a mixture of distances and some shots were partially obscured by trees, but all the targets were shootable, which was evidenced by the results. To challenge our guests further there were some surprises - hitting the wrong animal in a herd shot resulted in a penalty of minus five points. Other challenges were in the form of predator and prey targets, where the predator had to be hit before the archer could take a shot at the prey. Following lunch refreshments of burgers, bacon rolls etc, tea and coffee, the afternoon’s round was a one arrow round on a different, slightly easier course with 17 3Ds and three Hessian faces. As it was only a one arrow round the archer could nominate the peg he/she wanted to shoot from and be awarded the relevant score - assuming they hit the target of course! Tea and cakes were consumed whilst the scores were prepared. As the second round was only one arrow this sped up the shooting and by 4.30pm the shoot was finished and all the prizes awarded. When asked the visiting archers could not make any suggestions to improve the event, but one comment received was “to hold five events a year instead of just the one”! I would like to thank all of the visiting archers and members of BWFAC who helped out.

14th October - Wolfshead <strong>Field</strong> Archers THANK you to the twenty four archers who made the journey to Robin Hood’s Bay to participate in our last open shoot of the year, comprising a course of 36 mixed 3D and picture targets in both moor and woodland settings. Despite the disappointing weather this small band certainly made up in enthusiasm what they may have lacked in numbers. Thanks also to our members who assisted in preparing for and running the shoot as well as providing hot food and drinks all day. We hope to see old friends and hopefully some new faces at our 2013 shoots, the first of which will be held on Sunday 24th February.
