<DIV><FONT face=Arial>your 2 cents worth is always welcome ,don't feel
lonesome, putting your foot in your mouth and chewing thoroughly is
called " pulling a blackmoon " for a reason = )</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I hope you never have to witness an episode of " leave it

<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>if you never voice your opinion you will never be able to
test your thoughts against the thoughts of others. and no one will ever change
your mind by sharing another perspective.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>but it is always good to remember that no matter what
award you or anyone may have , unless they are stating " official policy or
rules " on this list, they are just voicing their own opinions. and in most
cases just trying to improve the communities from their perspective . so there
is hardly ever reason to get mad, or be rude , etc.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>we all understand that in this medium mis communication is
much more frequent than in person ; )</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Forgive the "road less traveled" statement. My iPad adds that at the end
of every email. As for the two different communities, your very wise and your
statements are far more sound and thought out than mine. I still have a lot to
learn and maybe I shouldnt have tried to throw my 2 cents in. It would seem I
have put my foot in my mouth and I'll take this as something to learn from. As
for my comments about "worth" I wasn't saying one person personal worth is
more than another's. I was merely stating it as a qualifier for a position. I
wasn't trying to put us who are target archers below ca. From what I was told,
the royal huntsman would have to go to gulf war and fight along side the king.
For that reason alone, I agreed with ca being a part of the royal huntsman
tourney. My apologies for my comments ad any offense they
brought.<BR><BR>There's a good <SPAN

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>greetings </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>1st , everyone please ,there is no need to get
personal , were all archers .</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>even if we do belong to two different communities,
there is common crossover between them.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>2nd, you do neither community any good by trying to
pick fights. ( which seems to be the way the statement is written, though I
hope im wrong on this )</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>but you must be able to see that there is a world of
difference between handling combat gear while in heavy armor,and getting
shot at for maybe 30 min., </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>and placing 3 out of 5 arrows in a 4 " circle
, ( @30 yards or more ) after standing in the sun all day and walking
all day ??</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>two different skill sets, two different sets of
equipment, two different communities......</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>as for your statement, I take umbrage at the thought
that a top flight archer should be thought less of than an archer that
does neither combat nor target archery on that level, but is considered a "
better " " more worthy " archer because they are mediocre in more than one
community. ( especially since I can count on one hand the top flight archers
that are that level in both communities , and not use all my fingers
)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial> how many heavy weapons archers are just as good
( or nearly so ) with a crossbow, as they are with a longbow on the field of
war ?? or for that matter a spear ?</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>without checking , I can almost wager that more target
archers are equally lethal ( or at least nearly so ) with crossbow,
longbow, and recurve </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>so your statement makes even less sense , why
would a target archer wish to " suit up " in heavy weapons armor , to settle
an archery dispute ??</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I would hope that all championships
& especially the royal huntsman would always be won by the best
archer present ,I know this doesn't often happen, but its a nice goal ;
)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>which road would that be ? according to the numbers
posted for participation, target archery has more participants than heavy
and rapier combined so it cant be the road less traveled .</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>hopefully this is close to settled , as both sides
have expressed their opinions, and arguing helps neither side :
(</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>tired old mans opinion, yours may vary
greatly.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>This is true, our value isn't at the same level as someone who skills
are more rounded in different fields of archery. But if it means that much
