Archery

[Cromm]

Yes ozzy I do, but I am up for going to the club.

 

[Cromm]

I will be placing a order tomorrow night for some bits from flybowshop.com
Remember to let me know if you would like anything also ?

 

[Cromm]

Outstanding bit of archery today with ozzy, cheers for that. It was good to work on some form not just fling arrows at the targets, which we did also. Will have to shoot multiple targets again from within the ring.
I have made up an order for flybowshop.com and will send it tomorrow, not sure if you fellas need anything ? But will send it about 10 am tomorrow.

Steve I have looked at flybow but they are out of the points I wanted which is a pity as I cant find them anywhere else in stock over here.
I used your arrow fix yesterday, definitely got to get me one now seeing as I resurrected 3 arrows from the broken heap, one would soon pay for its self.

 

[Cromm]

Shame about the points and yes it's a good bit of kit isn't it. Well done on saving the arrows. If it's worth it post some photos ?

 

[ozzy1977]

I think I have a few others lurking in the shed that need attention. I have dropped a few hints and I do have a birthday in a couple of months, just hope my plan will work

 

[Cromm]

Hahaha here's to planning .

Did the aluminium arrows iused yesterday come from Bow Sports?

 

[Cromm]

Yes I think they did, if you go on their website you will see them under May specials £28.50 at the moment. Cannot find tge info on the carbon arrows yet, but I know I have it somewhere.

I am all good for things at the mo thanks Steve, I am off to the Club tomorrow to do a taster session for some newbies

 

[Cromm]

If was a good morning of shooting and chatting and working on form. You would have enjoyed it Stu.

 

[Big Stu 12]

[Cromm]

Very true, work longer buy more of my stuff. Hehehe

 

[Cromm]

Some archery photos.

 

[ozzy1977]

Nice one mate, what are the bows?

 

[Cromm]

From the dirty old days......

 

[Cromm]

Well I've had a few days to myself and thought I would start making some arrows from scratch.
Ive had this shoots for about a year, just drying in the shed, so i will start with them.
There are Dogwood, Hazel and Ash in the group.

 

[Cromm]

I had debarked two before thinking that I would take photos, they are the two on one side. There are a few ways to season the shafts, you can place the shafts around a broom handle and wrap some rubber around them, to keep them close to the broom as they dry, moving them around as they dry. This way the straight edge of the broom will help straighten the shafts. I didn't do that as it's not a big job to fix the shafts and I wanted to show you how to do it.

 

[ozzy1977]

Please explain why you appear to be painted green

 

[Cromm]

If I have to tell you, you wouldn't understand.......
