[Ansteorra-archery] Ideas and discussions for future archery tournaments

[Sher M]

Then there are those of us who are a wee bit long in the tooth.  I know I 
can't go toe to toe with the rattan.  But I can hide behind someone (yes 
I'll admit I'm willing to hide) and shoot someone (hopefully on the 
otherside) with a crossbow.  Then when I'm too old or too slow for that I'm 
headed for Siege Machines and possibly Target (after all the targets can't 
hit me back).  I got into the SCA "late in life" but I'm going out with a 
bang!
