You know you're an archer when...

[Erika]

You judge good weather by how calm it is and the planet must wait if it is calm cos there's arrows to be shot.

you spend every wedding anniversary, birthday and xmas at the range

you knock back social events because they are on training nights/days and your sister rearranges her wedding day so you can shoot the Nationals

all of your friends are archers

you are really handy with the polly filler for those times when you forget the corridor at home is only 15m

the varnish on your dining room table has acetone scars

you have allen keys in your handbag

you think that the half on jacket look is fine

you like the minty cinnamon dental floss cos it makes your gear smell tasty

You know you're an archer when;

A brithday card has 18 wirtten on it using a picture of one of your smashed arrows, and two target faces (will post picture as proof once it's scanned in)

Kae.

You start the week off by shooting till 1am on monday night. Then wonder why you are tired for the rest of the week. (baby keeping me awake at night not withstanding)

or mine... recently it had a picure of my best end at 100 yards (4 nines and 2 sevens)...

its also been my bow, as well as several other random archery related things


another one to add, but i'm not sure it counts under being an archer, or just being sad (i'll leave you to decide)

You know you're an archer when; you name your bow

Yes but careful on the choice of names. I call my Genesis bow "Phil" but unfortunately the younger club members don't spot the connection......

Now guys, that's just down right weird!! You should be naming your finger tab! I have had three - clarabelle, daisy and bessy (made from cow, have cow names).

Its Sunday night and your setting your alarm for 7am Monday morning and realise that it'll actually be a lie in...
