Check out those FFP 187

Nicky Hunt, one of the worlds most promising archers, has been shooting competitively since 1997. First as a re-curve shooter then switching to compound in 2005. Her determination and attention to detail are qualities that contribute to her success. Nicky uses ffp-187 Yellow on her outdoor arrows. Nicky’s photo graces the cover of Bow International edition #44

Archery accomplishments

2010
Nicky has had quite a busy season! And a great one at that! She took Silver at the first and second World Cups in Croatia and Turkey, and she has also just returned from the 4th World Cup where she has won Gold and Team Bronze! Nicky’s World Cup Ranking is number 1 for the 2nd year running.
Nicky is now ranked World Number One!
