Archery Has Changed From Being Weapon Of War To That Of Target Shooting


When people shoot their arrows from a bow it is said to be indulging in the activity known as archery that from time immemorial has been used for shooting down enemies as well as game. The person that practices archery is known as the archer and one who is an expert or who likes the sport a lot is known as a toxophilite. After the discovery of gunpowder, archery was relegated from being the main weapon of war and hunting to that of an instrument for target shooting. Nevertheless, it has pride of place in many mythologies and thus has a special place in the hearts of many peoples.
