• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

    Archery

    I think I'd heard of that before and of the system of "guides" that are used by some of the blind archers - where a sighted person can guide them... "up a bit, up a bit more, down half, half left, hold, hold...... FIRE..." Sounds brilliant.

    Archery

    Many years ago, when I was a "junior" I used to compete at Scottish Junior level in the Scots Field Archery scene. Field archery is in the woods, up and down hills, along a course of 18 targets in between the trees, so not dissimilar in concept to a golf course. Much more fun than the Target...

    Hi All New to the forum and relatively new to what I would call "proper" woodwork, although I've built a few projects out of wood in the past including a car port and then a shed extension... but that was before I really knew what I was doing, even if they did turn out OK. My aspiration is to...
