Archery

You should have gone for a Compound Bow - a thing of beauty.
Just Google Matthews bows or Hoyt - you will see what I mean.

I used to shoot - 303s - SLRs - SA80s, and 2.2 live ammo.

Still love guns, but Archery need more control and and dedication. We do shoot up to 100 yards trying to hit a Gold the size of a CD.
 
OMG (O my Gold) you are really STRINGING me along – I may have to BOW out gracefully – I am getting older and not as FITA as I used to be. My may have to BRACE myself for a further onslaught. I may also have to CLOUT someone, as the COMPETITION is increasing. We may have to go HEAD to HEAD (H2H). You are now ganging up on me like COMPOUND interest, I like to WIN & WIN, but I am aware that there is SAMICK going on behind the scenes. Some people are quite HOYTy toity – others or more STABILISED. I think I need to press the PRESSURE BUTTON, or just have a REST, DRAW BACK and HOLD until I am ready to really let go.
(Check out the words in Capitals)

Have a nice day.
 
Well, if that's how Archers talk I'm glad I didn't join!
Can't be checking every third or fourth word to understand you. A conversation would take forever.

Strange I've listened to the archers talking on the radio, sounds nothing like that.
Though I've never understood why they tell me I could have a problem with my lower two acres or why I would wish to give my sheep a dip (whatever a dip is).

Love the comments - Unfortunately William Tell used a Cross Bow – hence not classified as an Archer

Objection yer'oner! Semantics & pernicketyness! If some geezer is launching sticks with pointy bits on 'em at your arse from another bendy bit of stick with some string on, I'd class it as being Archeried at regardless the differences! ;)

How very strange, I've just had an email from someone claiming to be the producer of the archers warning that if I wish to keep my lower two acres fertile then, (and here I quote from the said missive)
don't take the pee out of the archers or I'll come up there and kick you in them with my lesbian walking boots

Well I don't know about you but I reckon an offer like that makes the licence fee worthwhile, I can hardly wait!
 
Rejoicing now - One of my Archers Won Gold at the International Shoot at Telford today. Over 40 countries and 1000 archers took part. The Gold Medal winner is from the North West. Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

As for the rest, I did ask for Olympic Archers – therefore you have not read the question correctly and have gained zero points.
Looks like I have to keep the prize money….
(Such a shame)

We can't quarrel with that, or can we.
