4/29/2008:  The IPC has released their magazine, the Paralympian - which has an article on Archery. 

4/27/2008: Photos and video clips from the Texas Shootout (Sponsored by DOINKER PRODUCTS) has been shot.  Great weather and temps, almost no wind in the afternoon of the qualifying day.  The OR rounds were blessed with much more interesting weather conditions.  Photos are here.  Note that video clips are large, and have a filmstrip in the upperleft corner of the thumbnail. Broadband definitely helps! 

ADDENDUM:  Any archer in one of these videos will be able to diagnose the final part of his or her shot mechanism in very good detail. I would urge that he or she remember that any percieved flaws these videos reveal are only a small part of what is otherwise probably very good archery. Don't focus on, don't see only, the bad. There is also good to be seen. And if you feel you see something needing improvement, seek out a High Performance BEST coach for some good help.  Ron Carmichael
4/18/2008: Summary of Particpants for the State Field Championship in Eagle Lake over the last few years has been compiled by TSAA President Rick Stonebraker. Some have shot 6 years in a row, in this Eagle Lake State Field Alumni.   (I added my estimation of Rick's own participation statistics - he has probably shot in *every* TSAA state field championship event ever held in Texas, since our charter in 1983.

1/2/2008: Training Opportunity, Georgia, for June 2008  Intermediate & Advanced Archery Camp
12/30/07: Richard Hart's Cyclic Archer Training Timer (MASS CATT) has a further enhancement that makes it easier to use - you can now set the number of arrows (ie, in your quiver), and it will pause automatically at that point so that you can pull, and resume without losing the total count of arrows shot.  So if you set a training goal (ahem, a GOOD idea according to the coach writing this) you can use this software to help get that goal. 
12/29/2007: Congratulations to groom Michele Frangilli and bride Sandrine Vandionant , who tied the knot in Italy today.  Photo  More Information
12/29/2007:  Richard Hart has updated his SAAM cyclic archer trainer software.  If you read our latest newsletter you already have a free copy (What, you don't subscribe to the FREE newsletter?) of his very useful software.    The newsletter has the link to the page explaining the software and how to get a copy for yourself!

12/15/2007: I regret to report the passing of Jack Aborn:
This arrived in my email box:   "This is E.G. LeBre and I regret to inform all of you of the sudden passing of Jack Aborn, the long time national judge. Last Saturday, Dec. 8th, Jack suffered a stroke and as this past week was progressing, he was improving to the point he was released from the ICU to a private room. It was then planned that on Friday, Dec 14th, he would be moved to a rehab and start that phase. His daughter was with him on Friday morning when he suddenly passed away. At this point in time we have no further news as to the cause and when there will be a funeral.
Jack truly enjoyed working the events with all of you and he selflessly contributed to our sport for many years. Personally I have lost a best friend, but equally important the archery community has lost a great friend and supporter. 
I wish to apologize for this general email but as you can see the number of folks on the list is rather lengthy. I realize that there are some who are not included due to I not having their email or I may even have an incorrect email, so if I may impose please let them know, thank you in advance.
If there are any questions at all please contact at my email.
 
Thank you and be well,

9/13/2007: The TSAA board is soliciting bids for the upcoming indoor JOAD and Senior tournaments. We expect the range of time to be considered for the event to be January thorugh February.  New Years day to be avoided on the front end and the Indoor Nationals on the back end of the time frame, with Vegas Festival shoot on Feb 22-24 and the ATA show on Jan 10-12 as weekends to absolutely avoid. It would be preferable to not hold the events on the eve of the national indoors. See this link for information on the bid process, and you can email the webmaster if you have particular questions. The board will make the award decision on the tournaments by December 1st.
8/24/2007:  Shooting Stars Announces BEST Seminar for Sept. 13 & 15
8/23/2007:  Very little interest shown in this event so the idea is tabled.....there is the prospect of holding a STAR Fita event in the first few weeks of October, a one day, Saturday event wherein the archers would shoot at least 2, 72-arrow 70 meter rounds.  One goal would be to serve as a fundraiser for UT, another would be to provide an opportunity for archers to shoot qualifying scores prior to going to the indoor setup for the winter.  Please be thinking about it.  If you think you might be interested in such an event please send me an email using this link.
