Selwyn Moskovitz was the only competitor in the experienced compound division and scored 1 323.

The recurve Disa category was dominated by Calwyn du Toit, who shot a score of 1 150 over the four distances. He was followed by Sheldon Martin who finished with 1 054 points and Francois van Eeden took third with 1 001 points.

Karen Hultzer killed her target in the recurve experienced division, scoring a total of 1 263 points. Kim Pitts came in second with 1 140 points and Mike Verity claimed third place with a total of 1 129 points.

Malcolm Todd was the only archer in the recurve advanced division and shot a solid score of 1 328 for the day. Disa pins were earned by Van Eeden (white), Pitts (black) and Du Toit (white and black).
