There seems to have been a lot of things going on the in thearchery world in recent weeks, from archery shops going into administration, the government plans for limiting crossbows in the UK. Me tinkering with barebow and trying out some new arrows from Skylon (edge 6.2) along with a couple ofpodcast suggestions.

Firstly, though a bit of promotion for the Briar Rose fieldArchery annual shoot on the 19th of July and we have people already booked on.It's open to all NFAS archers and all styles, sadly no dogs though. It would have been nice to avoid the same weekend as the Welsh champs but this was the only date our land owner allowed us. If you aren't at the Welsh championshipswhy not give us a visit you can book via the club website https://briarrosefieldarchers.wordpress.com/

I’ve recorded this episode of the podcast as a video on mythoughts on the National Field Archery Society championship faces (NFAS). For those that don’t know NFAS produce a selection of target faces specifically designed for the big game round used at clubs across the country and at theNational Championships in September.

In this video I cover the positive and negative points and provide my thoughts specifically the mess version we use at our club. We have been using these styles of faces for a couple of years and in our experience they work pretty well, especially in wet conditions but there are a couple ofnegative areas where they could be improved.

There are currently 80 target faces, 20 per group, whichmeans you could set 2 full 40 target courses and not repeat a face.

You can order these directly from the NFAS website, where inthe downloads section you will find the order form. https://nfas.net/downloads

Let me know what you think.
