andygatesTwang! I've just remembered that the Kyrton Archers, our local archery club, shoot at the local school (public schools getting all the cool sports). That used to be an annoying bind travel-wise, but now it's a fifty-yard stroll. I'm going to have to amble over and see what they're like. I've only ever done a little re-enactment archery and lots of LRP silliness: it would be nice to try for some consistency and a decent sniff of draw weight. At least my venerable fibreglass flattie isn't as underpowered as BunnyBane...
Thump! Eny fule kno that being hit with a hammer hurts. From mjolnir through the fourteen-pound sledge I was oiling earlier and down, that whole weighted-lever thing is a bit ouchy before we even go near mauls. And hefting around an asymmetric weight is a good workout and can be surprisingly elegant and wooshy. So, imagine for a second that you're in the position of having watched Equilibrium and that gun kata idea is still dug into your skull like the comic-book wannabe ninja cool it is. Imagining thus, you may find that you think the same thought as I: Has anyone ever concocted sledgehammer kata? Is there a t'ai chi hammer form? Answers on a postcard please.
