I assume that archery is in general a low impact sport on the environment, certainly traditional bows and kit "sticks and straw bosses" are low carbon footprint.
Plus "field archery" which seems a bit of a contradiction, ideally requires woodland and so perhaps sits better than target with the environment.
How many clubs, who own their own land actively encourage wildlife, birds etc?
After all there are more binoculars on a target line than in most RSPB bird hides.
Can archery clubs be seen as actively having a positive impact on wildlife on land used for the sport? If so could it be used to some advantage of acquiring land to use or people it attracts?
