The Trading Post was the site of an ardiery competition Sunday as it hosted a Money Shoot and Golden Eagle Clinic.

Golden Eagle, a manufacturer of archery equipment, brought pro Roger Haun and new hunting equipment and attracted several potential purchasers.

In the meantime, starting at 10 < a.m. the money shoot began with what [turned Qut to be six divisions. There [ were scheduled contpetitions for ; men’s release (for bows with trigger releases), men’s finger (regular bows), ladies, youth (ages 10-12) and Pee Wee for those nine and under. The prize for winning was 75 percent of [ the $10 entry fees in the division. [ This was a chance for Clif Lewin’s Trading Post Youth Archery Club to compete. Drew Larose, 11, of Remington, Tommy Hensley, 12, of Rappahannock County, and Rodney Woodward, 10, of Marshall had had four previous lessons in two weeks.

The competition involved shooting at 20 targets, 10 spot targets (regular bull’s eye targets mounted on hay bales) and 10 3-D targets (foam animals).

They boys started out shooting at a foam squirrel and foam groundhog. The squirrel got the worst of it as some hit it when they were supposed to shoot at the groundhog. They next moved on to a series of spot targets having some success as they tried to figure out how far they were from the targets so they would know how high to aim. “You have to try to figure out how far the distance is to put it down or take it up,” Mr. Lewin advised.
