Archery is the art, practice, or skill of shooting arrows with the use of a bow. Archery has historically been used for game hunting and combat; in modern times, however, its main use is that of a recreational activity.

Archery sport competitions are divided in following disciplines:

1. Outdoor & Indoor Target Archery

2. Field Archery

3. Run-Archery

4. Clout Archery

5. Archery Nordic Biathlon

6. Flight Archery

Three main types οf bows are used іn archery sport:

Recurve bow

A recurve bow has tips that curve away from the archer when the bow is strung. By definition, the difference between recurve and other bows is that the string touches a section of the limb when the bow is strung.

Longbow

A longbow is a type of bow that is tall (roughly equal to the height of the person who uses it); this will allow its user a fairly long draw, at least to the jaw (the average length of arrow-shafts recovered from the 1545 sinking of the Mary Rose is 75 cm/30 in).

Compound bow

A compound bow is a modern bow that uses a levering system, usually of cables and pulleys, to bend the limbs. The limbs of a compound bow are much stiffer than those of a recurve bow or longbow.
