About Mounted Archery
Mounted or horseback archery has its origins in ancient warfare and hunting, when armies of mounted archers fought on the Asian steppes and Native Americans hunted buffalo on the American plains. Today, horseback archery is a popular sport in Asia, Europe and the United States, and its various competitive styles are a reflection of different cultures and traditions. This exciting new sport has now taken hold in South Africa, and continues to grow in participant numbers, and spectator value.
