One of my other hobbies, which consumed much of my life for the last 20+ years has been historic fencing. Through that organization, I also got to continue my interest in archery that began in college and was furthered for a number of years instructing archery in day-camps during the summer.
I FINALLY got to start applying paint to my elves this afternoon. I started with the archers and, to my amusement, I found myself wanting to correct their form and advise them that wearing shirts with big sleeves would risk interfering with their bow strings. Then, of course, I found myself thinking, "But they've been doing this hundreds of years, so maybe they know something about form I don't..."
