| 1/17/2008: There IS JOAD archery in the DFW area! In addition to Jack Milchanowski's excellent Eagle Mountain Flaming Arrows in Fort Worth, I have just learned of The Texins Archery Club, in north Dallas! They've been on the campus of Texas Instruments for literally YEARs, and the number of times I have had no place to refer interested Dallas parents to is countless. If you need a JOAD in the Dallas area check this place out! |

| 1/2/2008: Richard Hart has added a metronomic function to the Cyclic Archery Timer. It just keeps getting better and better. |
| 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 |

| 12/15/2007:
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,

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. |

| 4/30/2007: The IFAA, in cooperation with
the NFAA-USA and its member club, Buffalo Field Archery Club (BFAC),
have acted to organize this event. BFAC is one of the oldest
clubs in Texas located on the west side of Houston. BFAC has 2
28-target field courses on extremely flat terrain. With a canopy
of foliage on almost every target, it’s an ideal place for any
archer, young or old, to come shoot. BFAC is proud to be hosting
the 2007 NAFAC and hopes you can join them for a great
tournament served up with some good ol’ fashion Texas
hospitality. For the most current updates on this event please

1/10/2007: the WITT
has had a fairly low turnout - there are, for example, only FOUR
female recurves out of the 70+ entries. It is not too late
to attend this event. The event when held prior to the Olympic
year has not included funding for the archers - this is NOT new
this year. The lucky few who prevail will get to represent
the US in Turkey. Think of it as a unique vacation in a
land with history going back 3 thousand years or more.

12-14-2006: I just discovered this new way to support the USA
Archery program. It works by portal technology. If
you shop online at any number of online websites, you first
simply navigate to that site through a software portal sitting
on your computer's desktop, that gives to USA Archery financial
credit just for you using their free portal. Yu download
the portal software from
this link ,
it installs to your desktop, and then you just click on the
shopping bag to shop. This is a safe way to help out the
organization. For more information on how this works,
read at this link. |

Both of the most popular internet browsers have been updated

World.
Listing yourself is benign - you will NOT be spammed as a
result. It allows you to list a photo as well.
Recommended, and I hope all that read this will check it out and
participate. PS- There is also one for the UK archers - and
Texas is only a little behind them in quantities. Go

exposed to the BEST method.
Weather permitting we may be able to shoot some outside at close
distances to reinforce the technique.
The cost is $25 per family. The time will be 9 am until about 4
