Great weekend at Driffield for the Yorkshire Clout and Championships Metric round today. Beautiful weather and lovely company. Alison Williams was 2nd Lady Longbow with an MB score, Ian Stowell was 1st Gent Longbow with a GMB score and Chris Eccles was 3rd Gent Longbow.

An Imperial today and although it was beautifully sunny there was a very tricky wind. It was brilliant fun with wonderful company and a lot of laughs and an alpaca!

First outdoor target competition of the year and and a great day at Kendal Bowmen’s Longbow Western. Weather was a lot better than it could have been (gales had died down, no snow like last year and the mud not nearly as deep as the year before!). Katrina Horton won trophies for Best Gold and “Most Hits for a Lady not in Top 3”. Chris Eccles, Alison Williams and Katrina Horton prizes in the raffle. Steve Williams’ bowstand was much admired! Great fun and lovely company and the refreshments were brilliant as usual so thanks to everyone at Kendal Bowmen for another enjoyable day!
