Foxes archer Ruth Welsh produced another outstanding display but had to settle for fourth place in the National Series finals at Wollaton Haul.
Reaching the finals, which feature the country's top-eight archers in each category, was an astonishing achievement for Welsh, who only took up the sport in 2010 when past the age of 40, and was competing in her first National Series.
Welsh started well in her quarter-final, winning the first set convincingly and, although her more experienced opponent made her fight all the way, she claimed the match 6-4. In the semis she came up against three-time Olympian and British No.1 Naomi Folkard.
Welsh succeeded in taking two points off her opponent but eventually went down 6-2 with Folkard going through to shoot for the gold medal.
The first two ends of her bronze-medal match against Lizzie Cantopher were tied, but Cantopher then drew away to take the match 6-2 and Welsh had to settle for fourth.
After the event she said: "It was a wonderful experience. I went way further than I could ever have expected and have learned so much."
Neither of the Bowmen of Birstall duo, Rikki Bingham and Christie Ravenscroft, proceeded beyond the quarter-final stage in the compound event.
Bingham, ranked second after the qualifying tournaments, started badly but although she improved she was unable to make up the leeway.
Ravenscroft also shot well but lost by a single point.
