Archery, the sport of kings since time immemorial, may surprise you with its all-encompassing history. This is the key principle: keep your upper body relaxed like a string under tension. Archery is an art that has united you with your ancestors throughout the centuries. Except for Australia, every continent has seen archery. Archery has been around since the dawn of rock painting when early people used it for hunting and warfare. A 11000-year-old man's hip bone from a cave in Sicily has a stone-arrowhead embedded in it. Yatzi, the Ice Man, had a stone arrowhead in his back 5300 years before. Back-stabbery at its finest, friends. King Harold was shot in the eye at the Battle of Hastings. At the battle of stanford bridge, Viking king Hadrada's throat was shot. The Battle of Agincourt was won with the longbow. With their bows, the mighty Spartans were defeated. Parthians defeated 10,000 Romans in two days with their horse bows. Bows have many references throughout history. Many people are still drawn to the romantic appeal of archery. Crossbows and compound bows, as well as clickers, sights, clickers, and kissers, can satisfy your ancient prerogative to throw a rock. If your character is such, I'll make a bow just for you. We have Recurves and Longbows. Targets. That's a lot of fun. Archers were our ancestors and so are we. This is the key principle: keep your upper body relaxed like a string under tension. Your arms and joints will transfer pressure directly to the target.
