Newark archers hit the spot
5 archers from Newark Castle Archers took part in The Foxes Triple in Leicester. The event takes place over 3 separated shoots The Portsmouth round, The Worcester and The WA18. All shoots are at 18m and 5 dozen arrows are shot.
The first took place in November with round two in December and the WA18 taking place last Sunday.
The combined score of all 3 shoots are then added together and the winners of each category are announced.
Steve Pepper on the left on the photo took 3rd place in Men's longbow 792 points, Ed Kovac holding the cup took 1st place in Men's barebow 1047 points, Mandie Elson ( purple hair ) took 2nd place in Ladies Barebow 918 points, Marti took 3rd in ladies recurve handicap category with 1233 points and Craig Collier on the right took 3rd in Men's barebow with 764 points. We also had Ian Pepper shooting but sadly he had to pull out due to injury.
This is first time that all archers from our club, that shot, have come home with bling.
