If you are a serious and thoughtful type of person then you will probably prefer Target Archery, where you shoot at the target of coloured rings with modern equipment and a sight on your bow. You try to get every one of your six arrows into the 10" centre, from distances ranging from 20 yards for beginners up to 100 yards for the experts. It takes lots of practice and dedication, but it can be done!

Field or Wild Archery is starting to become more popular with different centres creating more woodland courses.
There is no minimum age for Archery, it is just not as fun if you can't pull the bow back.
