Thats sounds just like me a couple of months ago, the sport just grabed me when I did a have a go session at a company away day and I found myself looking for a local club and getting quite worred waiting for an email, luckily one club were able to accomodate me a couple of months later and I am now 3 weeks into my beginners course but the wait was painful . After I did the have a go I just wanted to get a bow in my hand again!

Luckily the club have been really accomodating and I will most definately be joining once I have finished the beginners course, I've already started acumulating bits and bobs and should have another little parcel waiting for me at home with a quiver and a bow stringer

You have a big advantage though, a knowledgeable partner and that should stand you in really good sted in the future. Good luck with getting a response from your local club, most seem very busy at this time of year and you might want to give them a call to follow up your email

Enjoy your archery &

(no pressure on me then lol). One of the first things he ever said to me was 'Do you want to come and see my bow..!' Last year we went to a fun day in Crewe and I was persuaded to 'have a go' with Greenbank Archers. I discovered I really liked it, and have had another couple of goes since at different events locally, also with Greenbank Archers.

Ive now decided that I would like to take this further which my partner is , so I dropped an email to the secretary of Greenbank Archers a couple of days ago to find out when the next beginner course is. (Ive not heard anything yet ) I cant wait to find out more, Im just like a little kid and so excited. I hope I dont have to wait too long to find out when the next beginner course is as I want to start erm ...yesterday!
