But I have also been to comps where I (or someone else, for instance, a compounder) asked to pull my own arrows.
At last year's Bronte Double Fita, I scored and pulled Rainbow's arrows (she's a compounder) as she was on crutches and was tiring rather quickly just from the walk back and forth. She wasn't even on my target, but she asked nicely, and was happy to oblige on the occasional end when she needed help. |
When I have entered tournaments, I always contact the organisers directly and explain my disability, they always say that it won't be a problem,that they will arrange someone to collect my arrows and score, in the past I have been fortunate to be placed on the same target as some of my fellow club mates namely, Slowhand and Neo, I would like to thank them for not only pulling my arrows but also scoring, I know that without their help and the help of others I would not be in a position to fully enjoy entering any archery tournaments. So to all concerned a very big
Thank You
