  • Episode 124 - Some thoughts on shooting in warm or cold weather
    Jul 20 2025

    We have been experiencing a mini heat wave here in the UKand it’s resulted in several areas now having hose pipe bans and talk of droughts. It’s also triggered a question from a follower about suitable clothing and considerations for shooting in warmer weather.

    In response I’ve recorded this episode where I give a fewideas of things to consider when shooting in warm or cold weather.

  • Episode 122 – Don’t drown in all the helpful advice
    Jul 5 2025

    In this episode I provide a quick rundown on what I've beendoing for last few weeks with respect of arrow tuning, getting ready for the Briar Rose Field Archers open NFAS shoot end of July. There are still places available, check out the clubs website https://briarrosefieldarchers.wordpress.com/

    It’s also this podcasts 5th birthday, yes believe it or not you’ve been listening to my voice for 5 years. Thanks for all the support.

    The title comes from an observation of all the material thatis out there on YouTube channels, literature and friendly archers offering different advice. It can be quite an overload at times.

    My advice is to stop, take a breath and remember what works for one person may or may not work for you. Everyone is different and is why there is so many different bow styles out there.
