Thanks Ken.
I wasn't that good, the year I won the National Field, Simon Fairweather won his first Target Nationals, he went on to win the World Championship in 1991 and Olympic Gold in 2000. He was good, even as a youngster (he was 17 I think at the time) you could see he had more talent than the rest of us put together. I was just a good club archer who occasionally had a good day out.

I also used to do bow hunting many years ago unfortunately I had injury that stop me from doing it any further. I enjoyed it a lot.

Australian Bowhunting Association was the only organisation in WA that I knew of. When I finished I believed a proper field archery Association started up.

Prior to that I used to be in the practical pistol shooting club in Western Australia.

Still have my own gear. Hoyt Ultratech Compound target.

Last time I wore an arm-guard, the string went under it and it hurt me worse!

I used to shoot target and bow hunting. Now I don't kill things, so it's just target.
