A Question for Archery Couples

Hi Guys

Without going into the reasons for this question I just wondered how you guys who shoot with your spouse/partner keep from strangling each other on the shooting line!

I do not mind shooting on the same line as my wife. For a start Herefords and Yorks are kept far apart, and I score more than her, so that is fine. The only thing is it is easy to win a medal in the ladies category, so I am falling behind in that count

We don't stand on a shooting line,we shoot around the woods together.
We look at nature,each noticing different things,we chat to the other members of the group we're shooting around with,crack jokes ponder the meaning of life, and set the world to rights and then when we get to the tea tent settle into something sweet soft and gooey before continuing our philosophical perambulating.

Easy, always agree with her, always do as I am told (by her) and in return, she always praises me for everything (no matter how insignificant) I do and tells me how wonderful I am!

hehehe not quite the atypical archery couple here
father and daughter
she can be hard work at times, being 11 yrs old she`s definetely got a mind of her own
her worst habit is asking me questions when i`m at full draw

It can be tough when one of us is struggling that day. I'm also my wife's bow tech so if I want to shoot but she has repairs needed that gets tough also.
But like all things, you learn to manage it.
