Backblocks Archery Club Inaugural Fita shoot

[Jay Bowden]

A big turnout yesterday for the Backblocks club
80% of all members turned up and shot a Mens Fita.
Axilla and Rooster, shooting their very first Mens fita round rose to the occasion and acheived some good results.
Von Doodle fresh from his training camp,preparing for the junior worlds
and Jay, one and a half weeks into using a BT release for the first time.

Scores went like this:

Axilla--251-284-293-333---1161
Rooster-268-290-309-338---1205
Von Doodle-300-312-320-341---1273
Jay Bowden-321-343-337-351---1352

An overcast day with the threat of rain, urged us to shoot the full Fita without a break.A bit of a challenge for some,but a walk in the park for the Backblock Bandits.
