Yea, it was the one thing at Boy Scout Camp that was actually worthwhile. And even then, I wasn't that good at it.

its only fun if you have a compound bow, recurve bows suck. compound bows are easier to use, more powerful and much more accurate.

I've tried archery; it was apart of my 7th grade gym class. It was pretty fun actually...except for the fact that the bow string kept scraping my arm (so I wore a jacket). Archery is pretty cool; if I had the time (and resources) I would do it as a hobby.

I've once played it for half year as a sport (not a hunt) when I was in the university.It's not so difficult. just fix your standing and stop your breath to control your tension.It seems to me Japanese archery is more difficult.Japanese bow has no site! It's more primitive than Archery's bow is.

Yah it's harder then it looks. You gotta be pretty strong to pull some of the bows.
