[Archers] An interesting observation

[Fen & Michelle]

I'll be breaking into the 110s with a recurve this summer! :)  Also, Geoffry, Miles and Aiden are postioned to take GBE too.
 
One thing I would perfer - the Offiial Ranks only list your highest bow score. So people like Seamus who *also* have a GBE with handbow get overlooked because their GBE xbow score is higher. Can we change that? 
 
Cheers
Fen

Cog,

Look at the full list.  Reynard is a GBE with a recurve, and was one
of the first.  He just doesn't shoot RR's too often any more, so his rank 
doesn't show up in the active rankings. (and Henri, but he has disappeared
from SCA activity, last I knew).  There are also about 4 or 5 at the top end
of BE, that use hand bows.
