Off the Arrow Shelf

I’ve reached 100 episodes and in this one I look back at the work going on for the Briar Rose Annual shoot on 30th of June details can be found on the clubs website.

I also try to thank the numerous guest and supporters of the podcast over the years. Thank you all.

On a sadder note though I question whether I should continue writing or recording.

I hope you enjoy it and let me know your thoughts and remember if you do have any question or thoughts let me know, drop me an email on ⁠[email protected] ⁠or via the website ⁠offthearrowshelf.com⁠

Enjoy your shooting and as always thanks for listening and watching.

I managed to record this episode will struggling with a case of the flu so apologies if this episode is full of my sniffs . In it I cover quite a few topics from experimenting with the clubs chronograph to measure bow speeds, while trying out a few different options for club member on crossbow.

I also mention the Archery Geek outdoors recent podcast concerning the Governments call for evidence on crossbows. I have included links to the episode and government site.

I’ve also mentioned that Briar Rose Field archers has announced dates of the annual shoot which is the 30th of June this year. Details can be found on both the NFAS website (https://nfas.net/clubs/shoot-dates) and club site https://briarrosefieldarchers.wordpress.com/

It will be a 36 target course mixed 3D and paper faces. Sadly we can’t have dogs.

We don’t always get things right; we are human and make mistakes. With modern media like Instagram, TikToK etc we tend to only see the perfect groupings or perfect shots. This is the main topic of this episode where I discuss that it’s important for people to realise things can go wrong and to remember “Mistakes are only mistakes if we don’t learn from them”.

You shouldn't dwell on your mistakes but learn from them. This is far easier to say than do, but it is worth trying.

I mention a couple of other podcasts in this episode Modern Outdoor Survival and Outside & Active (which has Ray Mears on). You can check these out on Spotify or other streaming services.

There is also my version of don't be that guy.

Stay safe, stay well and thanks for listening.

So it's traditional to provide some background of how you got into archery, how long I've been shooting and so on. So I've tried to do this here.

Telling how I fist started all those years ago. Sorry if it rambles on a bit.

Thanks for listening.
