[EasyGallery key=’65’]

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!

Katrina Horton was 1st Lady Longbow Visitor and Ian Stowell was 1st Gent Longbow Visitor. Elaine Jobson won the Lady’s Best Clout with her Longbow, beating the compounds, recurves and barebows.

Brilliant last Clout of the season for The Longbow Club at Bowbrook Archers for the Shropshire Clout Championships. A bit chilly but dry and the sun shone most of the day and the breeze wasn’t too strong. 

Great company and a lot of laughs as usual. Delicious soup and cakes too! The Lord Patron was Patrick Huston who was also shooting his first Clout. 

There were 6 Members from The Longbow Club: Alison Williams, Steve Williams, Katrina Horton, Chris Eccles, Phil Wain and Lord Ian Stowell. In the Open Competition Katrina was 1st Lady Longbow and Alison was 2nd; Steve was 1st Gent Longbow, Chris was 2nd and Ian was 3rd. Katrina also won the Best Clout with wooden arrows. 

Alison beat her Personal Best by 20 points and was just 5 points off an MB score. Katrina was 6 points shy of her GMB – a nice way to finish the season.
