Well done! Archery is super difficult if you ask me. I really suck at it. We took up some archery lessons with a bunch of friends a few years ago and I was always the one that had to look for the arrows in the bushes and came home with big bruises on my arm.
We had to shoot at these fake ballistic animals so I think my inner animal lover instinct always made me miss. No really, if it ever comes to an end-of-the-world scenario, let's hope there are some edible plants left to gather as I will not be a hunter. That's for sure. I'll probably shoot my own foot before I shoot something else.
Good luck with your new hobby. I can already see that you are both naturals.
Haha I know I think I'd miss on purpose too!?! And I'm sure there's always going to be plants to eat, but if there's not, we would have to deal with that as a last resort.
You had bruises on your arm??? Did you not wear an armguard??
It's fun for us. There's something quite ancient about it. An old skill.
Twice I made the mistake of not wearing an armguard... lesson learned there. It was a lot of fun though. I Miss those Sunday afternoons.
Oh i was thinking of going to archery club... i reckon it'd be fun...
and I just ordered a super ccool quiver and arm band from etsy...
It's lots of fun. Even if you don't hit many targets lol. Here down the coast, we have nothing like this. When we lived in Siem Reap we had the country's national archery team who was organizing the Sunday classes. Too bad we are 400-500km away now.
Oh that would have been amazing!!!!!
