[Northkeep] ARCHERY ??

[LD.BLACKMOON]

WELL MET 
AND GREETINGS LORD MARSHAL

IF YOU MISSED STEPPES ARTISAN , YOU MISSED A VERY GOOD SHOOT !!!
THE ONLY BAD THING ABOUT THE EVENT WAS THE HEAT AND LACK OF NATURAL SHADE .
THANKFULLY SOMEONE LOCAL HAD SET UP A SUNSCREEN PAVILION AND RIGGED IT WITH A MISTING SYSTEM !!

NOW ON TO THE REPLY

Still have archers......just that the archery marshall (Me) is too bound to his desk at work. But here are some of the answers you seek.

GOOD HAVING ARCHERS IS A START. HATE TO SHOOT ALONE ALTHOUGH I DO IT EVERY DAY NOW .

I FINALLY GOT THE RANGE SET UP A WEEK BEFORE ARTISAN.

AND STILL MADE IT TO THE 3RD ROUND !!  

THERE WERE ONLY 4 ARCHERS LEFT WHEN I MISSED THE ARCHERS BAR .

( SORRY THE COMPUTER HAS DECIDED THAT THIS REPLY IS GOING TO BE IN BLUE,SO I QUIT FIGHTING IT FOR NOW )

No email list right now although there is a "house/company" forming

BETTER MAKE THAT 2  ALTHOUGH  MINE WILL BE PREDOMINANTLY TARGET ARCHERY , THERE WILL BE A COUPLE OR THREE PACKS  OF COMBAT ARCHERS  W/ FIGHTERS, ARCHERY RELATED TRADESMEN( READ BOWYERS AND FLETCHERS ... BOW STRING MAKERS ) AND I MAY EVEN REOPEN THE OLD GUILD OF THE GOLDEN HAND, BUT PROBABLY ONLY FOR HOUSE MEMBERS. 

AT LEAST THAT'S WHAT MY PLANS ARE FOR NOW .WE'LL SEE HOW MUCH INTEREST THERE IS ..

No Deputies ( this is a problem I need a deputy that is qualified to run a range.)

YOU WILL HAVE TO BRING ME UP TO SPEED AS I HAVEN'T " RAN" A NORTHKEEP RANGE IN APROX 20 YEARS.

FOR A TIME I EITHER SETUP OR RAN ALMOST EVERY ARCHERY LINE NORTHKEEP HAD.

BUT THIS WAS BACK IN THE SHIRE DAYS  WHEN ARCHERY WAS LOOKED DOWN ON AND WASN'T CONSIDERED VERY " MANLY " ( IE, ONLY STICK JOCKS WERE CONSIDERED  MANLY MEN )

HOW EVER , I HAVE HELPED RUN THE SAFEST ARCHERY LINE AT THE KC RENFEST FOR MORE THAN 10 YEARS.

NOT COUNTING THE LAST 3 ,WHERE I WAS TIED UP MUNDANELY.

I still have all the Osage Orange and it is seasoning out quite well but not quite ready to stave out yet.

GOOD DEAL !! I LOOK FORWARD TO LEARNING OR AT LEAST TRYING TO MAKE MY OWN BOW..

BE SAFE, BE HAPPY, HAVE FUN
