First rule of archery in Dagorhir: Learn to run

If I ever am in this position, and I really can't say I won't be, I feel much more prepared to deal with it! Especially useful is the issue of the "no-look shot" which is reminiscent of the "no-look pass" in basketball.

I hardly ever use this Knicks icon, so I hope you understand how rare a moment this is!

:laugh: I'm so glad I could provide you a space to use that nifty icon. :)

My Asian and I both get that no look shot on occasion and it always makes you feel like a super hero. :D

I took archery as a Education major PE college elective. (All education majors at my school had to take PE regardless.)
Interesting!

I'm betting that archery standing still is a lot different than when people are running at you to hit you. :D

This was so much fun to read, and a great way to work in the prompt. I especially loved the idea of "predictamancy" -- great word!

[shadowwolf13]

Thank you!! :D

I love predictamancy and other words like that. They're quite descriptive. :D

I love, love, love your first line and your last line! This was fun to read and I think I need to brush up on my running skills.

Thank you! :)

This sounds almost zenlike, phrased this way.

It sounds as if your events are more all-out battles than just one-on-one action, which must be pretty entertaining!

I only do archery in the big battles because it's not very defensive. One on one or small field battles I'm more likely to have a sword and shield. They're both fun, but in different ways. :D
