You know your an archer when:

Anyone wearing a yellow top makes you smile
Anyone calling an archery boss, a board really annoys you
You take the bloke from the car dealership in the demo car to your home to see if your archery kit fits in the boot (that was me last Friday )
You drop everything and go and shoot if it's a nice evening

thats is for now......

And for my contribution:

"You know you're an archer when a voluntary redundancy package comes round and the first thing you think of is how much archery gear you could buy with it."

I also know someone in our club who has done this.

You know you're an archer when:

You only grab door handles/carrier bags with your middle 3 fingers to "strengthen" them...

You work out if you can get a quick Warwick in, before going home from work

You take an unhealthy interest in the weather, to make sure it's going to be dry at the weekend

You plan away shoots around your family's social calendar (already looking at October at the moment!)

Am I sad yet?

Your pen/pencil is fletched and has a nock on the end.

Actually saw this on the FITA Athens 2004 Olympics DVD. Made me chuckle.
