WHY ARCHERY for Kids

Parents are stressed daily because so many kids live for electronics, they seem to have trouble concentrating, following instructions and often times rather difficult for parents to cope with during school days and during family time at home.

Archery is a great choice for parents who really want to break the electronic habits of their children. Healthy sport, yes because they are outdoors, learning to concentrate and most of all making great new friends.

Once they become active archers, they're just too busy and don't have time to sit at home behind a computer playing games. They learn self discipline, how to handle problems and most of all they improve their ability to concentrate. Archery is a sport that requires patience, balance and great coordination.

Parents will be amazed at the changes in their child or children when they're all in practicing and preparing for upcoming competitions. 

Archery is without a doubt becoming a household name in America. 

He's All In for the Competition.

As Always,

Brief History of Archery

Finland England hosted the first competition around 1583 but during this same time gun powder was discovered, so bow and arrows were no longer weapon of choice. 

It's anyone's guess when archery actually started but some take us as far back as the stone age. Egyptians used the bow and arrow for fighting wars and putting food on the table starting around 

20,000 BC.

History shows archery became popular in China during the different dynasty changes and then seeped into Asia. 

Then over a period of years archery has become one of the most watched and popular outdoor sports in America. The USA has competitions year round including many competitions for youth.  

This isn't just any old sport that has attracted a few participants here and there; this sport has millions of Americans who compete, hunt and do exhibitions. The strange thing about archery it seems to be one sport that people of all ages just love. 

A few stars to mention would be Cara Kelly is a professional 3-D archer and bowhunter. Cara started competing at a very young age (5) finishing second in the ASA Shooter of the year and a firm second in the IBO World Championships. 

John Demmer is a barebow archer and has put his hat on the top of many indoor competitions. In 2016 Brady Ellison won 2 medals in the Olympics which is no easy feat. 

21 year old Sara Lopez holds the honor of being number one longer than anyone else in the World Cup. Sara has many fans who follow her to every competition, yep she's a star. Even though she is going to medical school Sara takes time to hone her skills in archery.

The list of outstanding archers just rambles on and there's way to many to mention. But for those who love outdoor sports, it might be a good idea to give archery a shot. 

Every State in the Union has competitions going on yearly along with many businesses and organizations who teach archery. Archery just keeps growing yearly and who knows some day soon it may be our number one favorite sport.
