Who live... in a house like this?

Looking around the living room this morning during breakfast... it occurred to me just how much archery had taken over our lives... these are genuine photos from the living room this morning... (w're in the middle of making strings, hence all the kit lying out)





A short step into the hallway reveals where the bows etc normally live... plus chairs, tents, trolleys, toolboxes, target faces......etc!



Top of the stairs - some of the beginner's kit - arrows, bows, armguards, quivers, tabs, repair stuff, baloons!


And the back room - full size target (of course!), more beginner's kit... more books, videos, half a dozen more bows (compound and recurve) and this is only SOME of it


We must be the saddest individuals in the game... unless of course, YOU know better!
Car boot sale anyone??

Looks quite normal to me... Well apart from the teddy bears that is.

Murray, I've read Total Archery and The Heretic Archer. Any of the others on your bookshelf you'de particularly recommend?

Our house looks similar, toys not bows though, The kids think tidying up means drop it where you stand or push it into a corner, I keep telling them do what I say not what I do, but Kids just don’t listen

Unfortunatley I don't have an entire house to stuff full of archery paraphenalia (I'm sure John'll be along shortly to correct that spellling mess ), but I do have a bedroom full and a corner of the living room.

This looks like normal to me
And I my own cupboard, archery bookshelf, under the bed and am currently taking over the garage. My garden path also has marks every five meters.

Top of my wardrobe. Currently three compounds up there, along with at least two arrow tubes.

To the lower right of the box that the target is standing on (if it's not then I have to lean downhill at quite an angle to shoot at it) is an Aurora case with a recurve in, and to the right of that you can just make out the top limb of a bow with a Formaster attached.

I've also got a selection of (hideous) trophies kicking about here, and a set of Master cams on my desk just in front of me...

OK, I cheat a bit - I live in a shared house so all this stuff has to live in one room, but it's still a fair bit.
