Why a dozen?
Lombard:
If you are as bad a shot as I am, a dozen is not nearly enough.
Traxx:
I believe,that it is an Old English tradition,that has carried over.
KenH:
TRADITION! Based probably on the idea of having a "double end" of arrows. An End of 6 being the normal number of shots taken at a target before you go count the score. Competitions are defined as X number of Ends. If you had two ends of arrows they could be "close range" and "long range" or anything like that...
AncientArcher76:
I dont know about anyones traditions but I would assume common sense would be make enough to practice we all know you are going to damage afew doing that and perhaps to have few that you might think were the better few set aside for hunting. I like to have a few extra although my quiver wont hold a dozen. If it takes a dozen arrows for some people to hit a dear god bless them. Well you all have a splendid day! ::)
