YOU GUYS, I'M GOING TO TAKE ARCHERY LESSONS AGAIN I'M SO EXCITED

I'm going next Friday to have my shot technique evaluated to determine whether I have to get busted back down to the beginner class or whether I can start back at intermediate.

Also, the current jones for Real Ghostbusters is making me want to do Science, which is probably a good thing because that's my job.

Oh, so cool! I hope you have fun.

Unfortunately the only lesson I took away from my archery days was "keep your bow arm out of the way of the bowstring, idiot"--and even that one took a few spectacular bruises to sink in.

They didn't give you an arm guard? Usually you wear a metal-laced pad on your holding arm in case your arm gets slapped. That sucks!

We had arm guards, but they were tiny cheap leather things (mine barely covered half the length of my forearm), so everyone got smacked on the arm at least a couple of times. Possibly the instructors secretly subscribed to the "better learning through pain" philosophy!
