[Archers] Have you seen this??!!

[Garth Groff]

Noble Friends,

Sounds like a great archery program!

Two points:

(1) The Night Shoot is Lady Sarah Sinclair's baby, not mine, and she 
deserves the credit for this event. My role is mainly toting heavy stuff 
and pulling arrows.

(2) What is wrong with a recurve shot off the hand for Lord Naran's 
period shoot? I have such a period recurve bow, and they are not 
uncommon in period iconography.

Yours Aye,


Mungo
