What's so good about archery?
You might think of archery as a stationary sport, but you do a fair amount of walking to collect your arrows and it all adds up! As well as getting you moving, archery strengthens core muscles like your chest, arms, and large upper back muscles.
As archers gain experience their stamina and cardiovascular fitness improves - drawing the bow requires upper body strength, and maintaining correct form for the duration of a 72- or 90- arrow shoot takes a lot of physical (and mental) energy. Archery can also improve concentration, focus, and is sometimes very meditative. Studies have even shown that archery improves mood, eases anxiety and depression.
We think archery is fantastic and we're always keen to introduce new people to the sport.
