Any Archers here?

I'll take a pic & post it later.

Ok, @macaronus Here is a pic, as promised;


Note the pink D-loop & sling, as well as the manly black & pink bowstrings. His bow is the same model as mine, with a different sight and stabilizer.

 

Very manly bow. Black & pink were manly enough for professional wrestling's Hart Foundation tag team champions, back in the day.

 

I bet we are within 3 years of being the same age. Your post got me thinking about Jake the Snake Roberts, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, etc.....

 

Excellent!

I've got pink headphones. And a pink tie.

 

You are clearly a manly man, like my husband.

 

Remember The Undertaker's match (as 'Texas Red') against Bruiser Brody? I get the feeling 'Taker's habit of no-selling has some roots in working with Brody.

 

Getting back to archery...I've got another tournament tomorrow. I wonder if there will be any other entrants in my category (50+ Female/Compound). Quite often, there aren't.

 

Have fun!

 

Where's Maid Marion when you need her?!

 

I think she is in the Master Senior 400+ shooting class.

 

But, she looks reaallly good for her age.

 

And she shoots longbow in stead of compound...

 

Well, the longbow is just to balance off her girth. The old girl has rather let herself go since the Sherwood Forest days.

 

Foxes take care of themselves better than that

 

I did! And I shot a 446/600 today. That's 24 points up from my last tournament. These last 2 were shot, using 5-color target faces. These are much harder to aim at, compared to the blue & white ones. So once again, I am happy, despite feeling like I could do better. OTOH, I didn't miss a shot.

 

And maid marion didnt show up!

 

Clearly, she was intimidated by my prowess.

 

I heard she ran off crying like a little girl.

 

We eagerly await word of your first back-to-back Robin Hood.
