Off the Arrow Shelf

Welcome to episode 27 from Off the Arrow Shelf. In this podcast episode I going to give a quick breakdown on what is going on here in UK currently.

I also want to give a shout out to a couple of podcasts I have been listening to

The Push episode 178 with guest Thomas Fielder is really interesting as in the interview Thomas explains shooting a longbow with wooden arrows in US competitions. I found it interesting the difference in distances shot in comparison to UK field nfas shoots. https://open.spotify.com/episode/4bMiA8CaZquvZ3bOgIdAS9?si=lbHNdiw_QzqVNT8n3ZMNGg

Archery Geek Outdoors has a guest on the latest episode (26) Simon Thomas talks about wooden arrows and shotting in the UK. https://open.spotify.com/episode/5eVUPXJ4oMimc8DXHfiGy3?si=pLT2IVb6QkGjgTgmibV9Ew

I want to send my best to the guys at Off Centre Archery who have just been in a car accident.

As always, I hope you and all your family are doing well.

I enjoy getting feedback from listeners and any questions or thoughts let me know, drop me an email on [email protected] or via the website offthearrowshelf.com

Stay safe, stay well and thanks for listening.

So quick podcast while on taking break from the computer screen and on a walk in the snow. Was -9 C this morning but beautiful sunny day.

Stay positive, I know that many are struggling currently with lockdown but try and enjoy a walk or a break. I also share my thoughts on why some clubs might be cancelling shootings planned for April and beyond. 

Stay safe, stay well

Welcome to episode 26 from Off the Arrow Shelf. In this podcast episode I want to offer some thoughts on how archery coaches and students are going to have to adapt in light of COVID 19 restrictions.

I mention the guys at The Push Podcasts (https://thepushpodcast.libsyn.com/) and High Power Archery (https://open.spotify.com/show/6WmNrw5VQLXUWiMKAnh5Ra) both of whom are producing coaching support for archers and are worth a listen.

As always, I hope you and all your family are doing well.

You might find it makes you feel better .

So managed to get out of house and into shed to get some repairs on target boss frames with help of AC-DC Iron man 2 soundtrack 

Stay safe and well 

Not feeling positive so a walk in rain might just be the answer

Welcome to episode 25 from Off the Arrow Shelf. The first full episode of 2021. Happy New year everyone. As always, I hope you and all your family are safe and doing well.

In this episode I discuss how some of the early plans for 2021 are now on hold due to the current COVID lockdowns in the UK and I try to quote Yoda in a positive way. I am also asking whether people are interested in hearing my thoughts on course laying in future podcasts.

I enjoy getting feedback from listeners and any questions or thoughts let me know, drop me an email on [email protected] or via the website offthearrowshelf.com

Stay safe, stay well and thanks for listening.

So this is the second of the micro podcasts and today it is literally freezing and I think it has been all day.

I could have stayed in the house sat at laptop working but it's not healthy so I took a brief stroll. 

I know friends inside and outside of archery community or rather archery family are are struggling with the new lockdown her in the UK. So I'm going to try and offer some thoughts, help and ideas I am using to keep going and coping.

Stay safe, stay well and thanks for listening

The start of 2021 is proving challenging for many and I wanted to create some short posts to offer some support. Not necessarily archery focussed but more general at times. I know I have and in some ways still am struggling a bit but hope for the future.
