ANDREW’S 20 Questions

This is the 22nd interview and this month sees an archer of target/archery Ireland origins but who is becoming a more frequent presence at various field shoots which is great as he is one of the most bubbliest, brightest, and amiable people I've met, even if I really only have got to know him this past year. So this month it is the turn of Wicklow archer Alan Callister, the larger than life character who we should all get to know.

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.

From Basic to Somewhat Pro setup

Hello folks, my article for this month is my transition from my bows. This is a new topic explaining equipment, so bear with me. So in September 2021, I started archery with Black Castle Archers. At the time, I started…

Bullseye My Gob!: An Archery Ramble Through History, Hilarity, and Humbug

Indeed, the dance of an arrow as it traverses the distant of ‘from – to’, may seem oddly bizarre. A fleeting moment of grace, a trajectory that defies gravity, a vibrant intention and surrender. A paradox, like life itself, isn’t…...
