Archery

[Artemis Windsong]

Archery has been a hobby of mine for years.  I have participated in leagues and tournaments trying to perfect my skills

Today was a fun archery tournament shoot.  I made 24 of the 28 targets before my bow malfunctioned.  My H. came with me to pull arrows.  Good thing.  He does the tuning of the bows. 

Anyhow, I supported the club.  After such a disastrous year of cancellations, they need all the support they can get.

The sport has grown in schools and 4H significantly.  There is an indoor arena to keep the sport going all winter.

Good job.

If I remember correctly the bows are made from yew wood, yes?

Mine is a composite compound bow. Thanks for commenting.

I rested on my laurels during my sorting. I came across in a lot of different places, the certificates from bygone archery tournaments.

I must stick with this because at my age, I am a master senior. We are living in the south during the winter league and tournament season. I do miss them.

I am extremely uncoordinated

I took an archery class in college and loved it

That was decades ago...

There is an Archery range that shares our building.  They are our tenant. I am totally unaware of how they are doing, other than the fact that their rent is current.

They used to be in a borderline neighborhood.  Moving to our building put them in a very good area, and their business got quite a boost.

This thread has made me want to go take an Archery class.

I'm going to try every random thing I can when the kids move out.
