2nd January This is a plea for tutors for the next beginners course at Ash Manor. The three week course starts on Sunday, 22nd January at 1pm. If you have been shooting for a while or are an experienced archer you are capable of teaching a beginner. It’s very rewarding to see somebody who can’t shoot for toffee become an archer who can consistently group arrows and know that you showed them how to do it.
Brian Lodge organises all the beginners courses and he can be emailed at email Please let him know if you can help. KM
