response: Not sure but the person who participates is known as a bowman.
history: Archery as in Robin Hood shooting the apple off somebody's head!  So exciting. Speaking of Archery, it was used historically for combat and hunting. Are there different kinds of bows? There is the composite bow, a traditional bow of horn, wood and sinew. I have heard it takes a lot of strength to draw a bow. I can't confirm if what you heard is correct, what I know is that archery is mainly a recreational activity and competitive sport nowadays Do people shoot arrows with points, like dangerous points, recreationally? I don't have the answer to that, I know that archery is mainly a recreational activity nowadays, but I know nothing about dangerous points. Can kids do archery?
knowledge: A person who participates in archery is typically called an archer or a ''bowman'', and a person who is fond of or an expert at archery is sometimes called a toxophilite.
