In regards to Bow and Arrow - Yumi and Ya - as well as other Projectile Weapons:
Post on Ninja Weapons from 2009 when we first opened - updated in 2012, ten years ago, when we first "evolved Ninjutsu into STMA", with the end post going into detail

Winter Camp 2013 - includes Iceman's legendary "underwater" roll on the grass - which was two Grass days of 3 hours each - we did more regular Grass days back in that era, often one a month - this involved the first outdoor use of YUMI, with Rogue shooting the sparrows - you will see we literally had a Katniss back in those days, so outdoor arrows in the woods was much her thing

Spring Course 2014 - Yumi again as well as Shuriken concepts and their defence - this involved Viper nearly killing a dog with an arrow, and a second lost arrow in the bush by the big tree that we never found - we had hailstones that day

You will notice how we use the thread to see who can make what day and then decide, something we now do with the phones - you will also see how the Members discuss and use the Forum as a discussion group back then
My comment about not wearing a white gi to Grass day, though it would appear obvious anyway, was down to Maverick wearing his and permanently staining the back of it green, so he spent the rest of his time with us (up to his mysterious disappearance) looking like a Sombo wrestler
