Only with a homemade bow and arrow, it was fun until someone broke it XD And it's harder then it looks to get a good bow for sure, I never quite managed that but I came close to getting one that could at least shoot an arrow :shifty:

Yea I did try Archery a few times. We had a whole unit on Archery and it was harder than i expected. In all the video games i played it seemed so easy and fun to do because i mean really you are shooting an arrow from a bow. Simplistic and yet very fun. Turns out my aim in real life is as worse as my aim in real life :furious:. I am hoping I will be able to do some more Archery because it is very fun. It is fun seeing myself fail actually as odd as that sounds.

I've always wanted to learn swordplay. Archery hasn't interested me that much.

I do archery as a sport so yes I have tried it. I don't use re-curve bows though I use compound bows. They are much easier to aim with and are more efficient.

I doubt I have the upper body strength to really have much success with archery, but I would love to try it sometime as a one time thing, just because I missed out on the chance once before on a school field trip, due to rain. I would be just as content with a healthy varied pack of classic shuriken though.
