25.01.2022 Due to tomorrow's forecast of 30 to 40kms wind there will be no outdoor shoot at the cuballing golf club. We will be shooting again at Wickepin on Saturday 12th September.

24.01.2022 A New Direction and With new Energy Update News. We have, with all Western Australians cooperating and the well-known WA common sense been able to keep a lid on the COVID19 virus .for now. So this means we are back on the shooting range and enjoying our sport and companionship. We are exercising all the Local and State Government COVID19 guidelines.... There has been a lot of activity at the management level and the result has been that we have adsorbed the Dryandra Archery club in to the Banksia Bowmen Archery Club Inc forming one club. We have also spread our wings and now have two venues that we are using for Archery. On Saturdays we have the Indoor Range at the Wickepin Community Centre (next to the football oval) and Sundays we have an Outdoor Range at the Caballing Golf course. But at this stage we can only shoot at the Golf course during the Summer. We are looking for an Outdoor Range in the Narrogin Caballing area that we can shoot at for the Winter. Anyone got any Ideas? It is with great sadness that we are leaving our membership with Archery Australia/Archery WA. This is due to the high cost of membership to these organisations and the change of direction of our members. We are joining the Traditional Archers of Australia (TAA). TAA offers members a much cheaper and affordable membership. We had found over the years that the cost of membership to AA/AWA was putting off potential members. COVID19 and the loss of jobs and full time income has been a good indicator that we are doing the right thing by our members and communities. There is an increasing interest in TAA by Archers in the rural area and we also have another TAA club in Wamenuskin, with a great bunch of members. It is between Corrigin and Quairading off the Corrigin/Quairading road

07.01.2022 I have been shooting recurves L and R hand since 2013 but now I have bought a Mongolian Horse Bow for $150. Its great fun and affordable. So you don't need to spend big $$ to take up archery. Leather wrapped handgrip Brace height: 6.3-7.1 inches (16-18 cm) Draw length: to 31.5 inches (80 cm)... Draw weight: 30/35/40/45/50 lbs Bowstringer is included The Tail of this bow is made from exotic Robina Acuminata wood The bow limbs are made of high elasticity transparent epoxy resin sheet so no animals have been harmed in the making of the bow.

04.01.2022 The club's last shoot was on this last Saturday 19th December 2020. We will be restarting on the 30th of January 2021. It's a Saturday and starting time is 9:00am. The Banksia Bowmen Archery Club is a family-friendly club open to all genders and all ages. Until then please feel free to contact us via FB or more direct ring our Development Officer Tony on 0428 441 349 We are now members of "Traditional Archery Australia" which makes membership very cheap and we have a bucket of fun. Come and join us.

03.01.2022 Sorry for the late notice but we will not be shooting this Saturday. We will get our Christmas closure dates up as soon as we can.

02.01.2022 As we get close to a lockdown stage there is a lot of interesting videos on this link that not only impressive but I learn a lot by watching to top Archers. Keep the love for the sport. If you want to inquire about joining the club or shoot with us once we get the all clear to go out and play again. Ring me on 0428 441 349 Tony.

02.01.2022 Due to our AGM being held tomorrow we will not be holding a shoot at Wickepin this Saturday 19th also the weather conditions for Sunday do not look good. So we will not be holding a Sunday shoot in Cuballing either. Sorry for the inconvenience. Hope to see you next week

01.01.2022 Its all a bit quiet at the moment as we all still working from home or just like me getting unfit fast not doing much. But dreaming of the day we can get back on the Archery Range. But this time is not being wasted. We are working in this quiet time at making membership of our club very affordable for us all. We will keep you posted on what we are going to change. Please remember Banksia Bowmen will be back as soon as possible and we will be shooting Indoors at Wickepin on Saturdays and Cuballing on Sundays, that's when we are allowed to restart by the State Government and the local Shires. Keep safe and see you soon. Tony
