I agree that it is important to take spare equipment, arrows, bows,
strings, gloves, clothes, stakes, clothes, feast gear, .... but there is
a space limit sometimes to what can be taken, especially for people that
may be traveling / car pooling very far for the event.
This is one reason I was asking about what is planned for the shoot and
for the CA portion. Anytime that I am running a shoot I like to let
people know well in advance if it will require more that their bow and 6
arrows. That way, even if they travel, they have time to make sure that
they get all of their gear there and if they don't it is on them.
