Archery Health Benefits

1.  Focus 
Learning to shoot will help you to develop focus and be able to tune out distractions.

2. Strength
Archery strengthens your arms, core, hands, chest and shoulders.

3.  Co-ordination
Practicing archery builds muscles memory as shooting becomes instinctive.

4.  Exercise
Drawing a bow burns about 140 calories per half hour.
Walking to retrieve arrows or between targets on a 3D/Field Archery course adds to the calories burned.

5.  Confidence
Archery is not only about hitting bull's eyes.  Shooting a bow and improving form with practice builds self-esteem.  

6.  Relaxation
Releasing an arrow, watching it fly and hearing it strike the target is exhilarating and a great stress release.
