Clout Archery

Hi Bernie - finder, keeper and maker of fun

Following golf + archery, you may like to know of this ...

A rarely practiced discipline today, most archers take part in clout archery only for fun.

I kept a lookout for arrows when running round the golf course today - but it was just the usual hazards, golf balls, dogs and runners coming the other way not looking out for runners coming the other way.

I confess to being only an occasional reader of your emails as they are far too distracting!

Clout Archery - competing to shoot as high and as far as possible. Lovely fun. Watching your arrow climb and reach. Reaching with your spirit to guide its flight. Practicing. Dreaming. Competing. Hoping for the higher and further. Lovely fun - especially when you don't really take it seriously. When you and your community of clout archers simply share the delight of the flight.
