The ren faire in eminence Kentucky has a pretty large archery competition that i shoot in every year. We have mens, woman's, open, accuracy and youth, I cant shoot in youth anymore but i get within top 3 in at lest one division every year.

I haven’t shot an arrow since high school! But I’ve always have loved it! (I’m 69 now)

Sounds like you need to attend a Renaissance Faire that allows their patrons to shoot bow and arrow.

There was one time I did archery when I was a Den Chief for Cub Scout Day Camp and got a Robin Hood (2 bows hit Bullseye). That was probably beginners luck, and a few summers ago

I'm here in Texas (around Dallas). My 'home fair' is Scarborough and I'm pretty sure there isn't an archery competition here. But at Sherwood Forest Fair (around Austin, Texas' actual capital city, and surprisingly, very 'woodsy' in places, including the fair grounds)- they have an archery contest. I haven't really seen the competition itself but we went into the shop of bows and arrows. There were some cheap, little cutesy souvenir types for the kiddos but they had some serious compound and longbows, too. I took an archery class years ago and we had to use the compound bows... I was not good at all. I still think about trying to start it up again, just for fun though. I'm not a fan of compound bows.

We are familiar with Scarborough! The same joust crew from that Faire comes to do the jousts at the PA Ren Faire, as well as several of the performing groups. You should definitely try using a longbow! They are much simpler. The longbows sold at the PA Faire are all handmade by the woman you saw running the competition in this video!

@@FromtheHobbitHole my husband and I are going to Texas Renaissance Festival (around Houston) at the end of November. Do you know if she goes to that one? I've never tried a longbow before...

We do not know. Sorry! We would assume that a Renaissance festival that offers patron archery shooting would have longbows to use.

That’s awesome!! We will be there as well! It would be fun to say Hi if we run into each other. To answer your question, make sure to watch the Ultimate Joust and Finale in Song at the end of the day. Other fun shows that we enjoy include Disasterpiece Theater, Aaron Bonk, and The Mud Squad. Make sure to check out the the shops and vendors throughout The Shire as there’s a lot of neat things to see and buy. If you have any other questions, please ask!

Great costume choice! Gandalf is an easy one to spot in a crowd. We aren’t 100% sure what we will look like today but it may be similar to our channel picture.

I love that your mind wants to relate to characters you know. Mine works the same way. I got it from a stand at the Ren Faire called The Scarlett Rose. 😀

They added a new archery shooting range in the back of faire by all of the other games & the tea shop- my friend and I did it (I was terrible but she got it in the heart!) We got to throw knives too

That’s awesome! Since the longbow was the grand prize, does that mean you won the whole competition?
