The Doole

Archers of the Kingdom cry “Doooooole!”, for 'tis on the Doole that teams of archers shall meet and compete to set their shire above all others.

Teams shall consist of Three. One a Captain.

Teams shall represent their Captain's Shire on this day, regardless of any other loyalties. Choose your Captain well, they shall shoot to decide any dispute or tie. Shires may field as many teams as they can bring fourth, by right, by pay or indenture.

There shall be a day of shooting after which four teams shall compete to be known as the best in the land.

The best four teams shall shoot head to head in a twilight tourney on The Caldicot Doole!

Bring Archers!, Bring Banners!, Bring Noise!

Anyone is interested in joining in the shoot, either with a full team, lone team captain or a prospective team member please contact Viscount Yannick of Normandy.

A well dressed archer looses an arrow from a long bow at a previous Ormthing event. He is using a period technique, leaning into the bow.
