Hi, I want to start running and I'm searching for a simple app were I can track my tour as well as getting audio hints for interval training without giving my health data to some data mining company.

After my trusty Hazel bow cracked last year, my eyes turned to the huge Blackthorn I have in my garden.

Blackthorn, unlike yew or ash, is not the typical bow wood. But this is largely due to the fact that they usually grow in hedges and it is hard to find a piece long and straight enough to make a bow out of it.

First step is to harvest this in late autumn and let it dry for 8 months.

This is a repost from a recipe I posted on r/archery:

Been experimenting with diy targets for a while. This is one made out of a 50x50 cardboard box filled with stacked cardboard.

I alternated cardboard scraps with thightly fitted peaces to press them down.

I finished them up with a U formed piece that sticks tight and prevents the pieces beneath to come out on top.

The benefits of this is that I can just swap out the box (have several) reuse most of the filling. Also it is cardboard only, no glue or else, which means it is still fully recyclable.

After some arrows thrown at, it I'll probably put some flat pieces to the back.

Apart from that it works great so far

Hi, as many I've just recently joined lemmy comming from Reddit.

One community I've spend a lot of time over there was r/archery, which has been a great resource for the sport.

Since one can't just found a community here, I thought I first ask if there is any demand for it or if it should stay in the sports community?
