Essential club kit that everyone forgets about...

    Okay, so WTSC has gotten access to a new field that'll let us do up past 90m shooting, and as a result we're poking at the list of things we ought to be getting for the club.
    Right now, we have bows, a small selection of Jazz arrows (which are all in need of being torn down and refletched and renocked to at least look consistent), target stands and faces and a backstop net that's in need of repair and dire need of bleach :D

    We've fletching gigs and a bowscales and assorted small hand tools and such.
    What I'm wondering is, what sort of thing do clubs find indespensible but which might not be on the IAAA club kit list?
    For example, what I didn't even think of until I went out to Dublin Archers to look about was a dolly to carry the target bosses around on. We've been doing that by hand (granted, only a 30m walk, but still awkward).
    There were a bundle of other bits and pieces I saw in DA that I hadn't even considered which I'm now chasing after (gaiters and boots for example, which I had but just hadn't thought to use), but most of them are personal bits of kit (bow stands, arrow counters, that kind of thing).

    Imagine, for a moment, that money was a secondary concern and performance was the primary one. What would you want your club to have?

    As a quick thing (will do a bit more thinking about it but the boss is on the prowl) if money is not an issue ya might want to upgrade the target bosses. The ones in the picture are grand but will soon be shot out. Superbutts are made of self-repairing (within reason) foam thats as light as bejeepers and essentially weather proof. We just bought a scatter of them for the club to upgrade from straw butts.

    Expensive arrows will thank you for it as well.
