I also know that where ever Talop Namgey (Senior) plays- there is always trouble created. He should be black listed by BAF from participating in archery tournaments.

Led by His Royal Highness Dasho Jigyel U. Wangchuck, the team Phoja today hit 51 Kareys – stage record, the tournament’s 2nd highest total and their own highest total so far. Phoja’s opponents of Pelden Group and ‘The Raven Inn’ hit 34 and 31 Kareys but were not able to complete any game set. Phoja completed 5 in this lower bacho morning match. At the upper bacho, Tob Dhen Dhey similarly did not allow their opponents to complete any game sets with their 45 Kareys. They found 3 game sets against none of Rabtenling and ‘Blue Poppy Tours & Treks’ In the afternoon, the less known team of ‘Quality Gases Pvt. Ltd’ but with seasoned archers won over well known Kata Yana and Monggar United. The winners completed 2 game sets with their 34 Kareys while Kata Yana completed one with 25 Kareys. Monggar United was not able to complete any game set but still found the target 29 times. It would be the last time for this year that we will see Monggar United’s commitment to the sport and sporting spirit that all had begun to appreciate. The other afternoon match at the upper bacho could not be completed by the set time and is to be continued the next day in the morning, before the other match. At the end of day today, the question remains what kind of total would be considered the highest during the quarter finals and would Phoja hit the higher then? And would there be a higher total tomorrow during the last day of the Knockout II stage. Phoja rose higher today. Led by His Royal Highness Dasho Jigyel U.

They should do better than that. I don't see any reforestation in the areas where the forests are cut. Ministry of Agri should make a thumb rule of afforestation for every tree felled.

So the actual number is 159 or at the maximum - it would be about 200 nos or 100 pairs. And all the conservation efforts are made in order to have more meaningful and fulfilling lives - any sport (like archery in this case) fulfills a major aspect of community vitality. A small measure of input is always required for greater happiness.

So good luck to everyone and congratulations to the organizers for this continuous effort.

I remember Yangphel planning to hold an archery target designing contest that will feature not only of wood but of other materials too. WE SHOULD SUGGESTS ANY IDEAS WE HAVE TO THEM AND I HAVE NO DOUBTS THEY WILL INCORPORATE. Could the targets be of foam with a sound device stuck at the back. Could it be of some plastic or some other material. The challenge is to see what is most feasible that is of interest that makes adequate noise and that does not deviate much from our traditional aspect. Whatever it may be, ALL OF US- FANS OF ARCHERY - should attend Yangphel's archery sonsultation meeting held quite often to boost our national game and make suggestions.
