random outing of bows and arrows

























I don't even remember what inspired the idea to do archery.  The last time I did archery I was 12 years old and at Foothill Sports camp.  We were in a green field and shooting at targets pinned to big bales of hay.  This is exactly the scene I have in mind when I think of archery.  But in NYC?  Nope, Queens Archery is located indoors in a very white warehouse type space.

Nevertheless, it was a blast!  We started the day off with bagels and cream cheese, and then got a lesson, whereupon I discovered all the newest advances in archery.  So much gear that I never knew of!  Made it so much easier than the Robin Hood type equipment that I used before.

Meanwhile there was a tournament going on.  I made that guy in the green shirt nervous.  He no likey pictures.
