The shooting line
is a place for intense concentration. Propelling an arrow all
that distance into such a small gold ring is not something that
can be done if you're distracted. There can be no reason to chat
on the shooting line. Heaven forbid that anyone should actually
make someone else laugh while they're at full draw. But
perhaps it explains our 2nd places in the league matches ... |
** IMPORTANT MESSAGE
FOR MEMBERS **
Please be reminded that you MUST carry your Green Dragon membership card and display your car badge at all times when you visit the shooting field. Knebworth Estates staff will now check these regularly. Also remember that access for archery members is limited to the huts, the shooting field, and the toilets. We do not have open access to the park itself.

An archer goes into a pub and orders 10 pints.Barman looks around and says "You on your own mate?"
"Yes, is that a problem?" comes the reply.
The barman says "No, not at all, 10 pints it is."
Each time the barman pours a pint, the archer drinks it at speed.
When he downs the last pint the barman says "Crikey! You drank those quickly!"
"So would you if you I had what I had," says the archer.
The barman now feels a bit awkward and says quietly, "Oh hell mate, what you got then?"
"50p!" says the archer.
