HOME SCHOOLING KIDS

The club has been coaching the Home Schooling kids every fortnight this year and it has been a lot of fun for them and us.



We have been coaching anywhere between 12 and twenty six kids each fortnight and they really enjoy archery.

There is one young girl, Shellby, who has become a great archer in her time at the club. We believe she has great potential to go a long way in this sport.

The kids just love being at the club because it is situated in the State Forest, so they have lots of things to look at and lots of room to run around and explore.

They always go away happy, it has been proven that archery is medicinal.

FABULOUS

One of our members, Gail Taylor, went into hospital on Tuesday to have a complete knee replacement.

Rob said, she is up walking today, Thursday.

Gail is doing really well and that is wonderful as she has been in severe pain for over two years.

The doctor has already completed the paper work for Gail to have her other knee replacement done.
It will be great to see Gail back at the club.

All our members send their love and wish you a quick recovery.

Singleton Branch 3D Titles

The last weekend in August saw 7 members of Manning District Bowhunters take the trek to Singleton for the Branch 3D Titles. Singleton Archery Society put on great weather, even if the breeze was a little fresh, with two beautiful sunny days of shooting.

Over 130 archers had turned out to shoot. The ranges were challenging with some deceptive distances bringing many archers unstuck. The placement of some of the targets was inspired with a bobcat in a tree, a turkey hiding in the hollow of a stump and the grizzly taking a leak inside a port-a-loo. The ranges were a pleasure to shoot with easy to navigate tracks. Great food and exceptional company kept everyone happy during the evening, although the nights were a little cool.

The weekend ended with Singleton putting together a well-stocked raffle table.  The Manning team were very lucky winning several prizes. Our luck continued during presentations with six shooters achieving top 3 positions in their respective shoot categories. 

Their results were:

Karl Peck AMBHR A Grade 1^st Place

Glen Allen AMBHR A Grade 3^rd Place

Rick Starke AMBHR B Grade 2^nd Place

Chris Kendall Trad Peg Men’s Longbow Traditional 3^rd Place

James Dowson AMBHC A Grade 6^th Place

David Parker AMBHC B Grade 1^st Place

Raylene Starke AFBHL C Grade 3^rd Place
