Perkins shoots 1421 on great day for shooting at SNAC

Kathleen Millar

2011 World Target Champion, Christopher Perkins, set a blistering pace today (Saturday, July 19) during the first-half of South Nation Archery Club’s annual 4 x 720 international tournament weekend.  The weather was terrific with a slight breeze and 78 percent humidity.

In the morning, Christopher shot 710/720 at 50m, and followed it up with a 711 in the afternoon for an impressive 1421.

Congratulations to all the other archers who shot so well today, too.

Tomorrow, SNAC will finish off the weekend with two more 720 rounds (70m senior recurve / 60m cadet & masters recurve / 50m compound archers).

With 37X, Christopher Perkins has set the world record bar very, very high indeed for compound men shooting the 720-50M round.

Christopher’s unofficial world record score of 715 out of a possible 720 was set during the Archery Canada national target/field/3D championships in Woodstock, New Brunswick, August 2-10, 2013.

Congratulations once again, Christopher!!! This record should stand for a while!
