Greetings.

Hello folks.
Greetings from Wales and thank you for having me. I hope to learn a great deal from all of the experienced archers here. I am a novice having shot only two or three times but with your help I hope to progress in this very enjoyable and rewarding hobby.
Best wishes, S.

P.S. Can anybody reccomend a good book that covers the basics for novices?.
Many thanks for suggestions.

Welcome to the party

I found that 'Steps to Success' was a good starting point...this has recently(ish) been re-edited.

Hi Sipka, and welcome to the forum!

Books? You'll probably get many different recommendations but mine would be 'Fundamentals of Target Archery' by Ruth Rowe. A good guide to basic equipment and technique, well illustrated and from a very good archer. Quicks sell it at £13.95.
