Archer Acts on Impulse

'Twas a far wiser mind than mine that once said "cleanliness in next to Godliness" and despite the attempts of one or two of our number to the contrary, archers generally display a fastidious approach to all matters of personal hygiene.
And our gentleman paramount, Dangerous Dave Renton is no exception to the rule. When he discovered a slight 'clearance Problem' (on his bow that is ) he did what every right minded archer would do: he retired to the bath to ponder his predicament. After bathing, shaving some of his face and most of his head, our hero raided the bathroom cabinet searching for white powder. No, not his usual brand of Bolivian Marching Powder, Dave was looking for some nice powdery 'B.O. Basher'. Having found a can of Right Guard, he proceeded to de-oderise his arrows, button and rest.
But such was his rush to get to the root of his little problem that Dave couldn't wait for the deoderant to dry. The resulting explosion of armpit spray covered everything from limb-tip to limb-tip.
So not only did Dave win 'Best Dressed Bow' and 'Worsed White' at High Elm Archers' Western Shoot yesterday, but he surely deserves 'Sweetest Smelling Bow' and a 'Fonz Award'. Well done Dave! The more you spray, the more you get!

Hehe, thanks Adam. Although it should be pointed out that I chose to shoot for the Worst White yesterday, it was the only way I was going to take something home
