>>2614702Just do some browsing, buy a bow and shoot in a field in the middle of nowhere. Never seen a hi-vis at achery desu. Most target shooting at clubs i've seen goes like this;
>Everyone shoots three arrows>Check up and down line, wait for last ones.>All good, whistle blows.>Everyone heads to the targets to retrieve their arrows.>Everyone heads back to the line>Shooting resumes.>Laid back, chit chat, chill and twang throughout.Rinse, repeat.
If an emergency or need to stop the shooting urgently, someone yells out " 'Fast!"
Don't nock arrows in between shoots.
Don't twang bow strings without arrows nocked.
Don't approach target filled with arrows directly from the front.
The last two are more just general advise/quality of life rather than rules. It's all pretty laid back. Courses are there mostly to make money. I've yet to find proper daft people at archery clubs, they're quite good at vetting, because of how simple things are, you really need to be doing something wrong to cause issue.
>Is it like that or am I worrying for no reason and paranoid from previous experience with gun-clubs?I've never been rifle shooting, but i'd expect that community to be far more up tight, because anything that can go wrong is a potential reason to lose your firearms. Archery is far more relaxed, I doubt anyone would try outlaw sticks and string.
