A gorgeous misty morning at Putley heralded perfect conditions for our annual Don’t Shoot Santa Shoot this year. A motley crew of happy and hatted archers tackled the clout shoot where we shot at printed sheets rather than the usual flags, giving us the opportunity to shoot the gremlins stealing Santa’s gifts. Thankfully (and probably luckily), Santa himself escaped unscathed.
George shot magnificently and won the Junior prize. Pat outshone everyone and won the Senior prize.
The clout was followed by a few ends at the novelty targets, together with the chance to shoot the dastardly Feathers. All of this fun followed by a roaring BBQ tended to by Graham.
Many thanks to all who attended and made this such a fun event!
Steve Powell has a pair of Hoyt ZR330 limbs (38lb) for sale. Please see the sale section on the website for more details.
Our second remembrance shoot continued it’s tradition of being very well supported by our own archers and those from neighbouring clubs. We raised a very generous donation of £200 for the Royal British Legion, thank you for all of your contributions!
We held a clout at both long and less long distances and awarded appropriate trophies for both wooden and metal arrows for each distance that were won by Ian, Vicky, Hillary and Gordon.
A thank you goes to Rachel for creating and supplying the trophies, and to all participants for their generous contributions.
The annual clout competition in honour of Geoff took place at Putley Farm in September.
Overall winner and barebow gold was won by Phill Creasey with 197.
Martyn Cowley was longbow gold with 187.
Dan Callender was silver with 181.
We have issued details of our member and visitor fees for the coming year (2025-2026), details can be found here:
Julie got the perfect clout, damaging the flagpole!
11th April, we headed to the Royal Oak for the annual dinner and bling handouts.
A good meal was consumed then we handed out awards for extreme cleverness in the art of Archery.
Another “bling full” day at the county championships. Well done to all archers and massive thanks to every who did their bit to make it run smoothly. You are all fabulous. Go Ledbury !
The Worcester Bowmeet happens twice a year. The members shoot at 60 yards and the scores for the two occasions are added together. The winner receives a lovely silver trophy.
Malcolm was defending champion and retained his title. Malcolm is typically sanguine about it however this is the fifth successive year he has won the trophy. If it was the footie World Cup they’d let him keep it!
Well done Malcolm!
