Frostbite

3 Dozen arrows at 30 metres shot outdoors on a 80cm face, scoring 10,9,8 etc. Only tens score as golds, and 6 Sighters are allowed.

At Andover we shoot the Frostbite on a Sunday morning (normally the first Sunday of the month). Watch the events calendar for actual dates.

This year we have entered one Recurve team of 5 archers, the best 5 scores as entered as the team.

We have also entered one Compound Team, a team consisting of two archers. So the best two scores will be entered after each shoot. 

Sighters are at 11:00am, with shooting starting at 11:10am. Shooting is normally finished by about 1:00 to 1:30pm. The Tournament Organiser is sometimes able to arrange lunch at a nearby pub, for those who are interested. Cost of lunch is about £8 or £9 pounds, or about £11 or £12 for a two course meal. Watch the club notice board for further details.  There is no dress code for this event. Warm dry clothing is normally a good idea! We have shoot in rain, hail, and snow before now!
