I'll admit to being someone who thought insurance was a necessary evil but with good management it would be almost impossible for something to go wrong.
However when our club was shooting indoors last week (sports hall, 15m distance, 3m behind the line) the tip of an arrow ricoched back and hit the smart watch of another archer, breaking the face.
I mean what are the odds of that? Good in a way that it was only a watch and not someones eye.
It wasn't even a particularly heavy poundage of bow.
The club is just going to replace the watch rather than go through the insurance.
Certainly something I've never heard of happening previously.
