Thirty nine archers, including eight new shooters hit the IFAA range on Sunday to get in some much needed practice leading into the Branch IFAA competition on the 5th and 6th of November.
The Hunter, Animal and Field ranges are 14 target ranges which in competition are simply shot twice to make up the required 28 targets. Scores were ok but nothing brilliant was posted by the big guns.
Jodi Dolbel showed good form and really relished in the marked distance round showing what a natural IFAA shooter she will become leading up to the big tournaments put down for the first half of next year. Jodi's husband Stuart was almost regretting upgrading Jodi's equipment after 20 targets but managed a draw with her after she had some minor sighting problems on the 70 yard walk up.
Steve Jaeger and John Clark had a close tussled for the open grade honoros with John Clark just edging Steve out after a close finish.
Ken Thompson shot well and posted a good win in the compound barebow division with Collin Hall showing he has carried his recent good form in ABA into the IFAA round edging out the long time favorite Phillip Porter at the post.
