The April Awards and Competitions
April signifies the start of the outdoor season and the Monthly Handicap competition. It’s a great opportunity to put your skills to the test and see how you measure up against our other archers.
As a member of the Bowmen of Danesfield, I can say that we all take great pride in participating in these monthly competitions every year.
Our members have worked hard to hone their skills and perfect their techniques, and the Summer Monthly Competition is a chance to showcase those skills.
