Private archery course, Northamptonshire, United Kingdom
Log of September 8, 2012: "I heard the sound of arrow hitting target very nearby (I was on the path too) I got within 120 feet of gz when another archer appeared, he looked surprised to see me so I asked if it was safe for me to be walking around, given there were men armed with cross bows in the woods, he said not, especially as I was walking around in the opposite direction to the way the course is laid out."
