Archery Club - Established 1948
Back in April 2025, we .. along with some “university engineers” who were definitely just two club members sniggering in the container .. unveiled our April Fool gadget: a shot‑analysis device that used accelerometers...
Six months ago we documented three of our archers on a heroic road trip to Merlin Bishop Auckland .. a journey so long it technically counted as a pilgrimage and possibly a minor endurance...
It's April. You're standing in a field somewhere in central Scotland. The wind is doing that particular Scottish thing where it can't decide if it wants to come from the north or the east,...
With the recent opening of Merlin in Glenrothes, Scotland now has access to a major archery supplier on its doorstep. Until now, our closest store was Merlin in Bishops Auckland which meant a 332...
Not that long ago we wrote an article on the latest target arrow to come out of everyone's fav purveyors of aluminium and carbon products. No, not Tesla .. Easton. The arrow was the...
We at Glasgow Archers have, for a while, been looking into ways to help archer's performance. We have been collaborating with Strathclyde University engineering graduates and UWS IT graduates to develop a product over...
Apparently we're contractually obligated to talk about things other than Lady Korean archers and Olympic recurve. Our Korean fanboi recurve-ocentric editor has taken the huff and locked himself in a cupboard with a complete...
Some time ago we wrote a piece on your first compound bow. Now while this smacks of heresy to our "recurve master race" editor .. we do have a duty of care to all...
Elite isn't normally a company we talk about much (or indeed at all) on this website. They are a pretty high-end compound manufacturer putting it out of our sphere of interest on the grounds...
Occasionally, we let our editor off the leash and let him run loose on the internet. Don't worry, his monomania doesn't let him search for anything but archery related subjects and he has found...
Some months ago, we recommended (potentially) your first carbon arrow – Merlin Archery’s Alimax. This entry level Aluminium Carbon (A/C) arrow shaft was, we felt, a good replacement for the sadly discontinued Easton ACC....
So, there is a sort of monthly** magazine all about archery. Its called Bow International which was first published in 1995. And while there are quite a few publications for bow hunting in the...
Everyone knows the names of Win&Win or hoyt<spit>. Innovative leaders in the field of archery kit, these companies have a new, cutting edge riser out every year. The new hotness is shown off during...
Probably the most overlooked part of any bow is the string. Its not sexy like the riser. Its not the powerhouse like the limbs. Its not a engineering marvel like high end sights and...
A few months back we pondered a possible replacement for the much beloved but now sadly discontinued Easton ACC and ACG shafts. The Easton PROCOMP was, as far as its specification was concerned, extremely...
