Venue Drewstown House Athboy Co Meath
Thirty Five entrants for this shoot which was down on last year by over 50%which is a pity as the venue is ideal for archery.The venue was the walled garden at DrewstownHouse which seems to have its own micro climate i.e windy outside and calm on the inside.The weather in general was showery and brought home the need to be well prepared in relation to shelter.
