Next years schedule has been posted.

The contract has been signed with Louisville and the date for the 2010 Indoor Nationals is March 20-21.
Tim, let people know your entry fees are cheap there compared to AZ. Not quite double but almost. And for NAA events it is more then double. $50 bucks for Kiley to enter the state FITA next weekend. State JOAD which I realize you don't have is $40. State Field (NFAA) next month is $37 for adults. Can't remember what Kiley would have to pay. We aren't going because it conflicts with an event out of state. Barbara Larrick

The way that I was previously placing pictures on the website was tedious and time consuming and as you have noticed I have not been posting them on the website for quite some time.  However, I have been saving all of the pictures that people have sent me waiting for time to place them on the website. 

I appreciate all of the pictures that I have been sent and know that the you appreciate seeing them. 

I am trying something new, quick and convenient (yes, there is such a thing) for pictures.  Every picture that I had waiting to be posted has now been posted and is viewable on the website.  Please take a look and see what you think.

That said.  We are now ready to post pictures quickly, conveniently and timely onto the website: so please send me your tired, your poor huddled pictures waiting to be viewed by all.

Take a look at www.floridaarchery.org/pictures.htm

Here are the final layouts of the NFAA ranges in Yankton, this also includes the practice area and parking.  Here is the latest layout of the ranges. (file is 4 MB).
We also have the individual layouts of each of the ranges, each layout is around 1.5MB.  Crazy Horse, Lewis and Clark, Badlands, Rushmore, and Missouri.

Splitting the Indoor did so well for the archers and for FAA that we are going to split another shoot this year as well.  Just in case you hadn't noticed gas is expensive.  Ft Lauderdale Archers and NADA in Newberry are going to split the NAA Indoor and the NFAA Indoor like we did this year.  Ft Lauderdale will be in February and Newberry will be in March.  Also Ft Lauderdale Archers and Gator Bowman are going to split the Marked 3-D.  That will be held on the same weekend with the same yardages and targets.

Any FAA member who wishes to forgo receiving a hard copy of the Release in the mail may do so by sending Tim an email requesting you be taken off the Release mailing list.  

This needs to be passed around and acted upon -   It is specifically against NFAA rules to draw above horizontal... it's also against NAA rules.   The practice of drawing a bow up in the air is unsafe, and many archers do it due to heavy poundage or simply out of bad habit.   Pushing the bow out with the bow arm... or better yet, pushing it slightly downward... can assist in drawing it back.   One arrow loosed high in the air and killing or damaging property three blocks away can set our sport back for years... much less ruin the day of the individual with the bow and the individual harmed by it!
I have created a new page for Archery Instruction.  We get a lot of queries about archery coaching.  If you would like to be added, please let me know.

With new automatic SPAM blockers, many of our members aren't receiving messages I send out to FAA email list.   If you used to get emails from Tim and you haven't seen one lately your email might have Tim blocked out by your SPAM Blocker will either need to list me (flarchery@earthlink.net) as an acceptable incoming address or will need to go to the FAA Website to get current information.  Tim.
