Click here for 90 bolt scorecards. Click here for 60 bolt scorecards. Click here for Event Results.A couple of Barossa members, Kyle Lewcock and Michael Lange went to Light Archers today for their regular clout shoot. It was a great day and Kyles first attempt at clout. Kyle performed really well, and ended up spearing the clout three times. Not to be outdone Michael also hit the clout. I think the BAC owes Light Archers a new clout!!
New field course marker pegs installed, much easier to see!
Thanks to the volunteers for your help and a big thank you to Ultimate Engineering & Maintenance Services for your ongoing support and sponsorship.👍
I’m looking forward to getting back to the range at the end of February.
They look amazing, well done!!!
Yeah I must say they look pretty awesome out there
They look AWESOME !
Looking good and very professional

Windy conditions for today’s QRE but some very respectable scores in spite of the conditions . A reminder that we have our last Indoor QRE this Thursday in the Angaston Show Hall . Register through Archers Diary and we hope to see you there.
Congratulations to all our beginners in the afternoon course for passing with flying colors ! We hope to see you all back on he range very soon !
Congratulations to all from our morning course for successfully completing your course . We hope to see you all out on the range in the coming months to continue your archery journey ...
Hi, when is the next beginners course please?
Well it’s pretty clear that we have been shut down for 2 weeks , which will obviously affect our QRE indoor event on Thursday and sadly the last two weeks of our beginners courses . To those enthusiastic archers we met at our courses on Saturday , check your emails as Grant has sent you all a message explaining the situation and of course giving you some “homework”..! Stay safe , happy reading and we will see you all back in a couple of weeks !
Oh no! I was hoping you wouldn’t be included in this 😔 We enjoyed the course so much-We’ll be back to finish the course when it’s time 😎 (Shelley and Thomas)
Lucky Ive gone to Seaford tonight. The real question is that is it 2 weeks or victorian 2 weeks...
Jaida was very upset on hearing this😢but out of our control and gives her extra practice time in this time. See you soon 🎯
What a fantastic day for our November beginners courses . Plenty of enthusiasm and some outstanding shooting all round . Well done to all participants and we will see you all next Saturday ! ...
A great opportunity is available to current and former serving ADF members and their families located in Adelaide.
Its a free day of Archery happening on the 22nd November from 10am to 2pm.
You can try your hand at shooting, find out about local clubs and competitions. There will be food provided and fun activities for the kids! Come along and see what the sport of archery has to offer!
To register your interest or to find out more, please email support@veteransport.org.au
We had a great field shoot today with two groups going around the course. Shane Reeves managed a "Robin Hood" on target three at 40m, unfortunately it was one of Aaron Richards-Zidov arrows on the receiving end!! Thanks to everyone who came out.
Thanks everyone for a very enjoyable morning of shooting. Also thanks Dave for getting the course ready, it looked fantastic!
Nice job Dave with the grounds. Looks great. Mark G.
Really wish I could have been there. When’s the next one?

Count me in!
Well done to Alisha for her performance in the state indoor. First in class for Cub Female Recurve. This is her first year of shooting and she jumped right in and competed in the state indoor. Congratulations!
If you haven’t been out to shoot for a while at BAC how about joining us tomorrow morning from 9am! The weather forecast is for a lovely 23 degrees and the range is looking fantastic.
I would love to be there but October is crazy at work. Hope to be back last weekend October.
The coaching day today was fantastic! Thanks again everyone!!
Attention all BAC members and our recent Beginners Course participants.....
Have you ever wondered why your arrows don't ALWAYS hit the gold?
Have you ever wondered why there is always ONE arrow with a mind of its own?
It may be your ARCHERY FORM , and we would like to help.......
On Saturday 10th October at 9.00am , several of our (more experienced) club members are offering to watch your form and offer advice on aspects of your form that may need a little "tweaking".
They will be offering to check BOW SETUP and make modifications if required and ofcourse offer plenty of advice on purchasing new equipment.
This will be a great opportunity to get some one-on-one time with an experienced archer to discuss the finer points of your archery form.
So whether you shoot Compound or Recurve, Barebow, longbow or crossbow, we hope to see you on Saturday between 9.00am and 12 noon.
(Club recurve bows will be available for those without equipment)
What a great morning it was, feedback was positive and it sounds like those who attended were able to improve their performance. Thank to the members who volunteered their time to help out.
Congratulations to a couple of our members for success at the recent State Indoor. Craig Perry who achieved third in the open recurve and Mark Goodyer who came first in the Veteran Male crossbow.
A great Club day today as we held our annual AGM followed by our Recurve Day . Thanks to all who came along and had some fun shooting archery darts , Willow wand, Robin Hood and moving targets. Many tanks to Grant Herrmann for organizing today , for supplying an awesome COVID friendly lunch and chocolate cake dessert ....because who doesn’t love a belated birthday cake to celebrate our clubs 70th year !
Many thanks to today’s prize sponsors Archery Supplies and Corryton Burge for their generous donations.
Thanks to Grant Herrmann for running an enjoyable event again, it was a nice change to be able to participate and enjoy the various challenges you had devised for us all. Also thanks to Archery Supplies and Corryton Burge for their generous donations it is much appreciated and helped to make for a successful event.
Club Field Shoot- there us currently very heavy rain in Tanunda so we are deciding to cancel the shoot for safety reasons. Apogise to those travelling.
The Cressey Bowman held their yearly invitational shoot today. Congratulations to Grant for coming second, and Michael for coming in third (only one point between them). Thanks to Cressey for a great shoot.
Excellent results Grant and Michael, and Mathew also.
