[Archers] Lochmere Arrow Guidelines

[Siegfried]

One interesting side topic here:

>      3.  Between 5 and 8 stations should be designed to facilitate
>         dozens of teams in the competition.

First of all, I'm not sure if we really need to 'define' a set number of
stations in the 'traditions/guidelines' or not.   IE, people will design
what they will design.

*shrug*

Though at the same time, this brings up an interesting point about how
the nature of the shoot has changed over time.

It started as just a Royal Round.
  ...
Later, it had become a shoot that always happened in addition to other
shooting that day.  So you'd have an events normal shooting "Oh and yes,
the Lochmere Arrow".
  ...
To that end, for many years it was usually designed as a '3 station'
shoot, to be quick-n-simple.  Though not always.  I remember one run in
Roxbury that was all day, and included a rather long wood's walk with
some pretty awesome teamwork based shooting strategy.
