Dear All, I've been completed and open the site about Turkish Archery. You can reach it via: www.turkisharchery.info You can freely copy of all pictures via ...
Wow, your site is terrific! Very informative, great pictures, and the museum displays are very cool. (I would love to have the Sultan's quiver, inlaid with...
We used Sir John's image for our period shoot this summer. Being the industrious bunch we are, we just turned over the 60 cm and hand drew and painted the...
my lords and ladies Don't forget the event of the years is just around the corner it's in the Antir crier so check it out All the archery you can eat and then...
Are you sure we have the room for you ronan ... From: Keith <kad.dsl@...> To: SCA-Archery@yahoogroups.com Sent: Wednesday, September 3, 2008 9:28:03 AM...
From your first sentence, I can't help but visualize a target with Sir Jon's face on it. But he is, of course, too young to be used as a "period target". ...
Well, one of the best attended and humorous shoots ever involved two effigy targets. One of a previous Baron and one of myself as the current baron during the...
James helped us Lions Gate Archers get over their fear of shooting wands at real wands. At a Sealion War, Baron James and Baron Devin insisted that the wand...
... I very much agree and hope to live to see the day when period-style shoots are the norm in the SCA and RR's and IKAC's are the novelties. yet another James...
Possibly not, I'm a pretty big guy. I don't have a bear as part of my heraldry for nothing! <grin> I hope it goes well though. You'll have to tell us all what...
James, This sounds intriguing but all I can think of is piles of shattered arrows (and the outrageous cost of fletching supplies these days) and arrows...
Funny you should mention that.. :-) At this years Baronial Archery championship in Seagirt in August, the final round was a shoot at an armoured (maille shirt)...
I did forget to add that we are planning to go further at the new Daffodil Marksman competition in March. Each archer will have his OWN wand. More points for...
The other James here, When we did this this summer we took multiple precautions. 1) Loaner arrows were available if desired. 2) The shoots were limited in the...
not a problem I will do that but I can tell you one of our fun shoots down here that is very poplar it's called light your dead We dress a from bear in a tunic...
Yes, I have. 1. Archers are told ahead of time about the shoot and the possibility of thier arrows breaking. 2. Limit archers to no more than three arrows. I'm...
While doing research on period archery, I often get the idea that we are misrepresenting the wand shoot. While I can't find anything specific on the shoot, I...
I've got a question about using footed shafts: If a bow with a draw weight of X usually uses shafts spined at Y to X, what, if any, adjustment should be made...
Depending on the length of the footing, it would require minimal adjustment of the spine, if at all. The biggest impact of a footing is in changing the...
If the FOC is not changed, it shouldn't need to be. Most of the flex of the arrow is towards the center of the shaft. If you're shooting arrows with a...
I think the FOC will change in this case. Its like adding a heavier weight to the front of the arrow, weakening the spine. You can either reduce the weight of...
At one SCA event a bunch of us decided shooting at the target was too easy, and decided to have a wand shoot. But since there were none around, we shot at the...
I have included some pictures of a wand shoot at Clinton. The wand was pretty close at around 20 yards but only two archers managed to hit it cleanly. The...
My lord this wand can you send the rules ( if any ) to me I live in Antir and it looks like something I like to try Ronan Mackay red bracer to danial of...
Also from An Tir here: Wand shoots vary somewhat but most are elimination shoots. A wand or stick is set up (some times a simple duct tape strip down the butt...
