My granddaughter wanted to get involved with Archery. So I bought her a beginner's set and drove her to local range.
Since the advent of Robin Hood, archery has enjoyed popularity.
Many kids are clamoring to learn some action hero moves. This absolutely can be a good thing.
I've heard it boosts hand-eye coordination, the chance to build balance and strength, and the confidence which comes with a new skill, there are a lot of positives to learning archery for all ages.
Archery is the practice of shooting arrows using a bow and has been practiced in cultures and societies across history and geography.
The concept is simple enough but after today I can tell you it can be a little more tricky to execute – the arrow is required to hit the target for success to be achieved. Mastering archery can take hours upon hours of practice, training and repetition. The Benefits of Archery As stated before, Archery is not only a lot of fun; it also has many extra benefits for all ages. It absolutely Improves hand-eye coordination By its very nature, archery relies on cooperation between the hand and the eye and can be perfect for helping to build and develop this skill. The more you practice, the stronger and more capable you become. Archery is also great for fine motor skills and can drastically improve flexibility in the hands. Improves focus and concentration This factor is super important for youth – a world dominated by screens means that attention spans can be shorter, and children less able to concentrate for extended periods. To be successful, archers are required to filter out all external distractions and focused on achieving the correct form, releasing the bowstring, and hitting the target. Archery can also be a great way to help relieve stress – it is said that the activity is almost meditative. Develops patience Another skill that can be honed and developed by archery is that of patience. Archery is a sport that depends on skill and technique, rather than speed, and so can be a welcome relief from most team sports. Being good at archery required hours and meticulous practice, repetition, and missing the mark most of the time. Accuracy depends on precision and can be a perfect opportunity for kids to slow down, take their time, and remove the desire to get things done as quickly as possible. Build all over strength Strong bones and muscles are essential parts of a healthy body, and archery is a great way to help youth understand and work on this early on, with no pressure or stress. All components of the body are used during the sport, and the arms, chest, shoulders, and hands get particularly close attention. Legs must also be strong and steady, and holding the tension for several seconds helps kids to get stronger with every shot. Develop balance Great balance is also essential for a successful shot; legs need to be square and well balanced on the grown to hold up the rest of the body, and the archer needs to hold their body in a steady, constant position the whole time they are taking the shot. Socialization The nature of archery often means it is seen as a solitary event, but this is far from the truth. If you join a club or group, you will get plenty of chances to hang out and interact with instructors, peers, and coaches, and this can be an excellent option for those who are not fans of traditional team sports. Getting yourself involved in organized Sport Archery can have benefits young & old.
In fact I might even be getting me a beginner set since ammo is getting so expensive. 🤪
