. I have also included two photos to show just how well attended the first outdoor shoot was.
A wise man said that this was David Taylor waving a magic wand and hoping for a good result in the final shoot of the NAC Portsmouth Series which has been ongoing over the winter indoor season. It is actually our very own chairman David Taylor who was addressing the NAC archers prior to the last event of three taking place on Saturday 10th March 2012. As the club continues to grow at a healthy rate David was explaining in detail as to how the event will run to our many newcomer who were in attendance for their very first competition. The results have been displayed on the appropriate pages (I think the wand worked fairly well) subject to final scrutiny and many new club records had been achieved during these three events.
Please find a pictorial of the event within our gallery section of this website.
