After the main shoot, several of the group went out to the neighbouring field for a spot of clout shooting. Thanks to Kieron and Co for setting out a great course and to Brian for giving up his afternoon shooting to take pictures, which can be viewed in the gallery.

Bow Hunter Trophy shoot
A misty start turned into a fine day for a squelch round Corf on 20th February. Aiming to follow a traditional hunting theme (one peg, one shot) with some very challenging shots, some archers made offerings to the water gods by shooting their arrows into the river! Thanks to Matt McKeown for putting together an interesting course complete with stalking alley of an unknown number of targets (turns out it was seven) and also to those who helped set up the course on Saturday. You can view a picture of the worthy winner, Malcolm Roberts with the trophy, together with some other shots from the day on the gallery. For a glimpse of how it should have been done (for the goose target at least!) click on this YouTube link shooting the goose.
