The Girl Shoots Archery Again

In High School and then in my 2 year college, I shot archery.

In High School, my Sister and I were on the Archery Team.

The first year my team won every game...except the one we played against Manhasset. They were a wealthy town and had competition bows. Oh well.

The second year we won every game...except the two we played against Manhasset. I assume you are getting the idea here.

The third year (which I thankfully did not compete, though my Sister did), we lost three and all of them were against Manhasset.

We loved the sport, anyway.

In college I took an archery class and won the award of best female shooter.

I didn't touch a bow, since that last class...but I wanted to, badly.

The other day I read an article in our local paper about a group of people who had approached the City of Santa Clarita. Land was provided to them, for an archery range and the soft launch was yesterday.

I was super busy, but I managed to spend an hour at this new (totally out of the way) range and shoot 2 sets of archery.

My car is dusty, but the girl still has it.

Two bullseyes on my second set.

Hopefully, I can carve a small amount of time and get in some shooting.
