Horseback Archery

I greatly admire horseback archery. It requires a tremendous amount of practice, horsemanship, strength, and aim.  Some people today are working to revive their traditions.

Horsies!

[gothfvck]

Back when I was in HS, I dated this woman who's mother & aunt had horses. I helped take care of them for a couple years and got to ride them. It was delightful. One day, I'd like to get some horsies. 😺

I've only shot a bow a few times. I think a regular and a compound but, it was in my buddy's backyard.

That's awesome. I have some experience with horses, but not a lot. I do like them.

I've had a few opportunities, but not much. It was still fun.
