Quivers of Quirk: Archery’s Oddballs and Arrow-Slinging Antics

The format of this interview is 20 questions, the first 10 of which are generally the same, specifically around the subjects of archery career and experiences to date, the 2nd set of 10 is usually broader as the interviewee chooses 10 random numbers themselves from 11-60 which dictates what questions I ask them.
