<DIV><SPAN>In all honesty I have only shot one royal round in my life to to
the fact that our practice range will not accomodate one. They are great for
expeienced shooters to see how much they have progressed. It is just my
opinion but I feel if we keep their interest and they keep coming back
eventually they will want to shoot royal rounds. I grade our progress by how
many people we have at archery practice, how many start to buy their own
equipment, and if we are growing. </SPAN></DIV>

<DIV dir=ltr>We have to remember that the SCA RR Scores is not a complete
indicator of how the Archery Community is doing and it should never be
presented that it is. Many people do not shoot RR scores and have no interest
in them, many people shoot one once in awhile but since they must have 3 of
them in a 12 month period and 1 of them MUST be an away score there are many
people that do not show up on the list. I know of a number of Archers that are
very good but are not on the list and have not been for several years.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Now with that being said, I do like to shoot RRs:-) I do not get to do it
as often as I would like but I still enjoy them.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>The reports from the Archery marshals and from the Event MICs are a
better indicator than the RRs. The RRs are a tool to help us see how we are
progressing and to see how we compare with some of the other archers that we
do not always get to shoot against.</DIV>
