That when such matches were, Those outlaws stout, without [all] doubt, Would be the bowmen there.

The Sheriff knew Robin and his men couldn’t resist the competition and sure enough, they showed up in disguise, with Robin winning the contest, getting the arrow and (in the movie) a kiss from Marian. It’s all a legend … right? Not according one man who claims he found the arrowhead from the actual silver arrow in Sherwood Forest … which just might be definitive proof that Robin Hood was a real person.
