Blind luck helps archer make one-in-a-million Robin Hood shot -- Signs of the Times News:
"An archer has achieved a one-in-a-million feat of marksmanship after splitting one arrow with another. What makes the shot even more remarkable is that Tilly Trotter is blind.The 74-year-old grandmother pulled off the shot, known among archers as a "Robin Hood", at a practice session of the Wellington Bowmen in Somerset...
Mrs Trotter, from Uffculme, North Devon, lost most of her sight following a head injury 17 years ago. "I can see movement but I have no central vision," she said.
...She may dismiss the shot as a fluke, but she also won a gold medal at the British Blind Sports National Championship last year."
