4-H Shooting Sports

Archery

A shooting sport participant aims his bow and arrow while sitting in his specially designed wheel chair.


The bow and arrow have helped shape the history of the world, and the challenge and fun of archery continue today. This competitive sport teaches patience, skill, repetition, and attention to detail.

The archery disciplines are split into two main categories compound and recurve. These categories may/may not be split into other sub categories, depending on type of equipment used.  Archers may begin this discipline at the 4-H age of 8 and continue through their entire 4-H career.
