We've all argued about the importance of the English Longbow, the example of Agincourt in 1415 being the pinnacle and eventual downfall in the use of a strong ranged weapon. But while we all know about the Yeoman Longbowmen of King Henry the Vth, what do we know about other types of archers in the medieval period?

Eastern Europeans used the bow quite extensively and their proficiency in the use of the weapon is well known but I am referring here to the Western European archery.

Did the Spanish kingdoms have extensive archery contingents? The French duchies? German lords? (I recall seeing Thuringian Archers depicted in an Osprey plate)
Perhaps the Italian cities can be included here too but their penchant for crossbows and arbalests is well known.
