New Year's Day Clout Shoot 2010 Another cold New Year's Day, but the sun was shining as 16 archers took the field at 1 p.m. The ground was not fit for football, but there were no muddy feet and not too many arrows bounced off the surface. Dave Burns reclaimed the trophy with Linda not showing quite the form of 2009, and Dean Burnell put in an impressive score as first junior. No mulled wine this year, but a welcome adjournment to the bar brought temperatures back to normal.
