Given the current spell of damp weather, I thought I'd share some info about waterproof paper that I came across.Credit is due to Northern Ireland Civil Service archers as I first saw it in use last year.I was very impressed and have since used it at our clubs open FITA yesterday, where the sun shone all day and the temperature hit 24 degrees!
The paper is available online, I'll not advertise the website but the paper is sold under the name "Rite in the rain". Its an American product, and can be printed with a laser printer. Ordinary pens can be used when the paper is dry, but when its wet, something like a spacepen or powertank are best.
I have carried out a test where I printed a sheet, immediately put it under a running tap, and then wrote on it with a power tank pen.I couldn't rub the ink off, and the paper can be wiped dry.It doesn't disintegrate either.
And it works out at 8p a sheet.
