email azjoad@cox.net

Update (10-26-2004)  Well the weather is now beautiful, just in time to move to the indoor season. We may hold practice on Sundays, if there is enough interest to sustain the effort.  Let me know.  Since the shops are closed on Sundays, maybe there will still be the interest?

Update (10-3-2004)   Three Sunday morning archery "beginners" competed in the Arizona State Championships. All won medals and one was selected to the 2004 Arizona Duel in the Desert Team. Fantastic!

Update ( 9-26-2004 )  All AZJOAD Genesis bows have now been fitted with adjustable “sights”   Thank you Sunday donors and Straight N Arrow Archery.

 

Update ( 9-19-2004 )  A dozen take part, 5 are youths.

 

Update ( 9-12-2004 )  Sunday morning get together proves to be popular.
