Might want to refresh your memory about the Kings Archer award.
From the Ansteorran College of Heralds website about awards.<br>
<br>
"This award is given to those who have striven to further their
skill in combat and target archery, who are involved in the arts and
basic heraldry, display courtly graces and manners, and chivalrous
conduct on and off the field. The insignia for this award is a braid
of green and black silken cords, hung from a brass ring." <br>
<br>
It is not but an non-armigerous award for archery. The next step up
would the Sable Talon which can be given for any Marshallete
activity. We really don't see a real split in the different types
of activities until we get the grants. <br>

be created whose primary duties would be to provide support

could be called the Royal Archer which would cover either the
