About the Author
Deborah Charles took up archery as a casual pastime but soon found the challenge of the discipline addictive. As a Master Bowman she now competes at national target events, shoots for her county team and is currently ranked in the top 20 UK Female Recurve Target Archers. However, she still gets most enjoyment from standing on her club field in all weathers shooting arrows at a gold spot.
