On a recent walk I was quite wary when I saw what I thought was a dog guarding a tent near the summit of Kilmacomma. Not to be deterred from my summitteering I engaged in various stealth moves to negotiate the final 50 metres to the summit area through the heather. I thought I was good as the dog didn't budge an inch. It was only when I stumbled on a large printed owl full of holes that the reality hit me. The summit area of Kilmacomma now appears to be used as an archery training location, and the 'dog' was actually a large foam model of a fox. The 'tent' was a large covered foam block, no doubt designed to capture wayward arrows.

The summit stone ring is quite large and impressive with a tree or two growing in the centre. Various archery related poles, boundary tape and broken shafts litter the area. Cryptic signs guide the way around what must be a course. During my descent through the trees I came across various canvas prints of wildlife affixed to trees and foam blocks. It was interesting that I saw no warning signs or other indications of archery until I almost stumbled into the large foam fox. I wonder if this is still Coillte forest or if a portion is privately owned? Future walkers beware potential arrows whizzing past. Linkback: https://mountainviews.ie/summit/1277/comment/19887/
