Louth archers win multiple gold medals
CúChulainn Archers clean up at mixed field competition
The Ron Bell Memorial Record Status Mixed Field competition took place last weekend. Hosted by Lough Cuan Bowmen, the competition was held over two days on the grounds of Clandeboye Estate in Bangor.
This year, the popular club added a new twist and made things even more interesting by having this as the first competition to take place on their newly designed course.
The competition was a Mixed 24 target UK Record Status, with half the distances being marked and the other half being unmarked, meaning that the archer had to calculate the distance to the target.
Five archers from CúChulainn Archers competed with very good results:
Compound Senior Men: Darrel Wilson took the gold medal; Compound Master Men: Alan Convery won the gold medal; Compound Master Men: Gilbert McClelland won the silver medal.
Barebow Master Men: Peter Gilmore won the bronze medal, and Trad Bow (Open): Mark Young won the gold medal.
Congratulations to all five archers on a great result. CúChulainn Archers holds beginner courses throughout the year; enquiries to [email protected]
