| Like many clubs we have to share our field, and the biggest bone of contention between ourselves and the football club who own the field is of course 'lost' arrows.
As a result, we have just started to institute a system whereby all members have to be 'qualified' at each and every distance; that is, be recorded as shooting 3 dozen arrows and not missing the boss. Until qualified, members will not be able to shoot a distance except on a designated practice boss set up away from the football area.
This might sound draconian, and it's one solution to a particular problem, but it might also help with the problem that Felixity is raising. It would probably be more acceptable to new archers than to those who have been shooting for a while. It could also be presented as a sort of 'achievement ladder'.
