YOUTH ARCHERY AT BIG SKY

Two Meeker youth archers, Dawn Arnold (left) and Auri Murray (right) recently competed at the annual Big Sky Archery Challenge held in Craig, Colorado. This tournament has a reputation for big cash prize payouts attracting top archers from all over the country. Arnold shot well on day one, then improved her score on day two with a first place finish in her class. Murray shot up a couple classes with the adult women, on day one she hung in there with the best of them, even taking a first place finish at the Friday evening “go for it” shoot and a second place finish at the Saturday “shoot down” shoot— whipping up on most of the men, too. On the second day she hung in there catching the No. 5 spot, just out of the money. These young ladies shot their pin set ups against scoped equipment out to 65 yards, both coming home with a little cash in their pocket.
