Spinning the Records
Rarely in the history of Windsor Forest Bowmen will eight days have been so productive! In the eight days from last Sunday (16th April) to this (23 April), Windsor Forest Bowmen have recorded no fewer than 13 Personal Bests, of which an extraordinary SIX have been Club Records! Congratulations to:
Bruno – Short Junior Warwick Club Record for the Boy’s U12 Barebow
Bruno again –Junior National Club Record for the Boy’s U12 Barebow
Celia – WA 70 Club Record (including the old name FITA 70) for a Senior Lady – beating her own record by an incredible 101, and lowering her handicap by 3
Celia again – Club Record for the American round, beating her own previous best which she set back in 2002!
Marek – Club Record for the American Round (Gentlemen’s Barebow) – I wonder if a Father and Son have previously set Club Records in the same week?
Ian Golding – a club record for a gent’s compound archer shooting the Junior National.
Congratulations for Personal Bests go to Hannah (Junior National); Kerry, Phil, Marek (again) – Americans; Cara (Short Junior Warwick) and Richard M (Short Junior Warwick and Junior National).
In addition, congratulations to Bruno, Dave, Phil, and Celia, each of whom reduced their handicap in the period. It looks like we are on a roll!
