Archery

Since January 1st 1951

Anyone with adequate training in the skill and safe usage of a bow can shoot with any bow that is right for them.

Remember that the bow should be the right "draw weight" for them, draw weight is strength and a bow that is too powerful will make it unsafe to use in the person's hands, this applies to adults as well as children.

If you get your child some training and provide them with a suitable compound bow, they will be perfectly capable and allowed to use one on a suitable archery range.

(NOTE: I am a real archer and I am an expert on the subject)

...This is just my personal opinion and is simply worth consideration to you, but traditional archery is ideal for the sport of archery becasue you can appreciate the extra skill needed to use it and the feeling of connection to history can be well rewarding.

An "end" is the amount of arrows shot before going down to the target to score, normally 3 indoors and 6 outdoors. A "round" is the complete competition, for example a FITA Round or a Long Metric, all have a set amount of arrows.

"now days" crossbows are used mainly for sport although the crossbow is still classed as a dangerous weapon

An "arrow holder" is called a "quiver". There are many types of quivers, with the most common being the type which is hung from a belt; others are the bow quiver (attached to the bow), the back quiver (slung on the archer's back, like a knapsack), and the ground quiver (often just a length of stiff wire with a hoop on one end, the other end pushed into the ground).

There are other types of quivers, but those listed in the preceding paragraph are the most common types.

Doc Rivers played with many teams. First 7 seasons with the Atlanta Hawks, 1 year with the Clippers, 2 with the Knicks and then he finished his career off in San Antonio.

bear recurve bows can range from 30-500. It is very hard to tell what the price would be for a kids bow? or an adult bow?

In a case stored in a cool dry place. I usually back off the limb screws two full turns with a note so I don't forget the next season.

The entire lot would perhaps just be called a target, but there are individual names for the sections...

The stand the target rests on would simply be called the stand.

The straw backing on a target is called the "boss".

The paper picture with the Archery rings or equivalent scoring system is called the "face".

I sold one year old for 200 dollars bare not top of the line speed wise so maybe 250 everything if you are lucky

You do not necessarily need any skills to begin archery. For beginners, the most important thing is to understand and practice the rules of safety. Once you have advanced beyond learning the basics, you can start to work on shooting with proper form, aiming steady and shooting consistently.

no! it is more important that the draw weight be comfortable to you. however if you use a 70 pound draw, the arrow will travel faster, straighter and with more force(better penetration).

It depends upon your ability to draw & hold the bow, and what you plan to hunt with it.

If you can hold at full draw for 8-10 seconds without fatigue or shaking then you are in good shape. I always thought that heaver draws were better but then realized by using lighter arrows I was able to mock the heaver ratio of more weight. You so lose some kenitic energy down range but if you have a shot within 20 yards it really won't matter. Most clean kills are within this range anyhow.

This is a question for your local Law Enforcement or Fish & Game.

Most hunting supply stores. Try Cabelas.

or you can buy them from the internet and have them shipped strait to your home no ffl needed. i bought mine via amazon.com i perfer the internet because you can compare items and choose the cheapest most effective one that will fit your needs

As i have seen the most expensive compound bow is the moon bow which is about $2000

When someone points the bow tilted up when drawing the arrow then brings it down to the target as they complete the draw.

This is frowned upon in any range, since indoors it would destroy the ceiling and outdoors it would shoot off dangerously far in the event the shooter accidentally releases it. It would be considered a bad technique and usually occurs when a shooter is using a bow much stronger than they should be.

Sky drawing is commonly wrongly associated with the Japanese shooting technique where they draw back with a raised the bow and arrow before releasing. The key difference here is they keep the arrow parallel to the ground, whereas sky drawing has the arrow at a angle toward the sky.

Archie was initially a technology used in hunting or for protection from wild animals. Anything that put you at a greater distance from big critters that would object to you stabbing them with flint knife or jabbing a spear in them (an perhaps mashing you into the dirt) was seen as a good idea.Later people noted that killing an animal at a safe distance was much much the same as killing an enemy (or the men in village with prettier girls) at a safe distance. This developed a second application of archery as a weapon of war or murder.

As time passed the skill required for archery was admired and the competitive sport of archery became a substitute for warfare.

Archery, and some types of hunting.

THEY POINT TO THINGS. Well apart from that it is generally used for hunting and killing

Quiver is a verb. Therefore, it has no adjectives.

The history of archery goes back thousands of years. There have been stone arrowheads found dating as far back as over 25,000 years . Bows and arrows were first used for hunting purposes.

Egyptians did archery dating back over 5,000 years. Other people and armies over east also used archery, including the Chinese, the Japanese. The Native American tribes were also very good at archery. Various woods and bones were used for the bows. The string might have been of sinew or of linen/flax thread. The arrows would had feathers, and would either have had a flint head attached with sinew, or simply had the end of the arrow shaft itself shaped to a point.

it depends i had a game up to 3 hours long xx :P
