I Have This Crazy Job Where I Get To Haul Off And Try New Things Every So Often And Then Write A Review About It For People To Read. It's A Job That I Didn't Know Existed And Therefore That I Never Planned To Pursue. It Sort Of Just Fell Into My Lap One Day And It Has Been The Perfect Job For Me Ever Since. I Love It. My Days Are Filled With New Things, Sometimes Safe And Sometimes Risky. Quite Often I Pick Up Great New Hobbies That I'll Have For A Lifetime And Other Times I Try Something Once That I'll Never Touch Again. I Recently Had An Interesting Bout With Archery.I'll Admit That I Didn't Know Much About Archery Until I Was Assigned To A Day At An Archery Field Receiving Lessons. I Wasn't All That Excited About My Task Simply Because There Was Nothing That Sounded Appealing About Shooting Arrows At A Target A Distance Away From Me. I Couldn't Figure Out Why People Would Invest Time, Talent And Money Into Such An Activity, Or A Sport As Many Called It.I Arrived At The Archery Field Full Of Skepticism And A Desire To Have The Day Finished. I Was Convinced That This Would Be One Of The Days That My Job Was My Enemy And When I Couldn't Wait To Get Back Home. I Was Wrong. From The Moment I Met The Directors Of The Archery Field To The Moment I Returned To My Car Four Hours Later, I Enjoyed Myself. I Learned A Lot About Archery And I Realized That It Truly Was A Sport That I Could Enjoy And That Was Worth Some Time And Energy.Archery Takes A Lot More Concentration And Hard Work Than I First Imagined It Would. I Ignorantly Thought That I'd Be Able To Walk Onto The Archery Field And Shoot My Arrows Directly Into The Center Of The Target. I Wondered Why Anyone Couldn't Accomplish This Task. I Was Rudely Awakened To How Hard Archery Really Is. I Quickly Gained Appreciation For All People Who Have Taken The Time To Perfect Their Archery Skills.Since This First Experience With Archery I'll Admit That I Have Been Back To The Course Multiple Times. I Have Gathered There With Many Groups Of Friends And Enjoyed Afternoons Full Of Laughter And Stubborn Trying To Get It Right. If You Are Looking For A Great New Hobby And A Way To Work On Your Concentration And Even Strength, Then Archery Is For You.
