🌵 A separate post dedicated to thanking our crew? Don’t mind if we do.
In Arizona we are blessed with skilled judges and incredibly hard working volunteers. There’s a lot going on behind the scenes to ensure our tournaments run smooth - this team (and many more not pictured here) was phenomenal.

🌵 ‘23 Arizona State Outdoor
This weekend, we were delighted to host one of the final outdoor shoots in the state and we are not disappointed. We were blessed with decent winds and tormented with some heat, but we loved spending our weekend with all of you archers. This is DSA’s second last tournament of the year - we cannot wait to head back to our indoor range and get out of this unusual heat for this time of year.
As usual,
