[Ansteorra] Archery-related links

[Tim McDaniel]

Again, scattering links because I wot not the Book of Faces.
These are about archery.

http://www.wired.com/geekdad/2012/05/cw-arrow/ is itself an article
titled "So How Is The CW's Arrow as an Archer?".  It links to several
other articles he's written on archery in TV and movie shows: Brave,
Hunger Games, and Hawkeye in The Avengers.  In May, he wrote

     Since writing the three archery articles last month (Brave and
     Hunger Games being the others) I have seen a dramatic upturn in
     public awareness of and interest in archery. Some clubs are
     reporting as much as a 75% increase in attendance at their
     lessons; my home club, Pasadena Roving Archers, is filled to
     capacity every week, and we have been featured on every local TV
     news program and in several newspapers and magazines. Every Louis
     Vuitton store in the world featured an archery-themed window
     display this month. Archery is the hot new sport (even though it's
     one of the oldest activities known to man), and Avengers is only
     going to add to that.

I have heard that Bryn Gwlad has seen an uptick in attendance at
archery practice on Sunday, going from "wow" up to "dear God".
