Don’t give up after missing the target a few times! Archery relies on concentration and technique rather than strength or stamina, and remains a popular hobby today because of how satisfying it is hitting the ‘gold’ in the centre of the target.
Pros:
- Social
- Outdoors: fresh air and exercise
- Relatively cheap hobby (until you buy your own equipment)
- Suitable for any age group
- Calm, relaxing
Cons:
- Can be difficult for beginners (demotivating when you keep missing!)
- You need a specialist equipment and safe place to practise
- Requires a lot of space
- Equipment can be expensive
- Can get quite ‘samey’!
