Just curious about what everyone is up to. What have you been shooting lately? What's happening at your events?<br>
<br>
<br>
I just got done with the Return to Crecy event this past weekend. It was a lot of fun. All archery points went toward the side of the English and the Equestrian points went to the French. We had 33 people shoot over the course of the day, with about 5 or 6 of those being newcomers.<br>
<br>
<br>
It was a lot of fun. Miles de awesome won the prize shoot, and also had the highest accumulation of war points. (But who's counting.)<br>
<br>
<br>
Best!<br>
