    Clubs near Leeds?

    After an 18-month break from field archery and a move to t'north from London, I'm looking to dust off my bow and get some practice in. Annoyingly, I'm now limited to public transport, so I was wondering if there were any clubs near Leeds that are open to new NFAS members and hopefully within...

    Arrow marking - what are the options?

    Shooting field archery at my skill level means that I occasionally lose a few of my wooden arrows, so having them properly marked is a bonus. In the past I've experimented with felt tip pens or inkjet-printed clear stickers, but I've not yet found a good method for getting anything decent onto...

    Can anyone recommend a UK-based POC shaft supplier?

    Hi all, I've been wanting to try out POC shafts to go with my new Black Swan recurve, but I'm struggling to find them with the right configuraion. Having gone through an arrow-matching process, I've come out with 32" 5/16 at 45/50 (or as close to 50 as I can get) but most of the usual...

    Excellent field archery course in Lancashire

    If you're anywhere in Yorkshire/Lancashire and you want a good day out in beautiful surroundings, I really can't recommend the new club house of Flying Arrows highly enough. They're around 7 miles from Hebden Bridge and the course is excellent. I brought my son and cousin up from London for...

    Field archery in Finland?

    'ow do, I'm heading over to Finland in September and am planning on taking a couple of longbows with me (a friend has a large farm which is moose-free). I was wondering what the field archery scene was like over there, and whether anyone has any friendly longbow contacts, especially in the...
